Maintenance; Technical Data - Surtek COMP550A Manual De Usuario

ADDITIONAL WARNINGS
1. Never attempt to remove any part of the
compressor whilst the tank is under pressure.
2. Never attempt to remove any electrical com-
ponent whilst the compressor is connected to
the power supply. Switch off the power and
remove the electrical plug.
3. Do not adjust the safety valve.
4. Do not use an electrical extension cable.
5. If the release valve under the pressure switch
cover fails to operate when the on/off button
is pressed down, switch the power supply off
and determine the nature of the fault.
6. Ensure that the lubricating oil is clean and
that the oil level is maintained at the mid point
of the red circle in the oil level glass.
7. Take care when discharging air from the
tank, i.e. from the safety valve, the drain cock
or the air outlet.
Compressed air can be extremely dangerous.
Take care the discharge air does not cause
dust, stones or any other foreign particles to
be blown through the air and that the air is
discharged in a safe manner.

MAINTENANCE

1. After the first 10 hours of working, empty
the crank case of oil and refill with clean oil by
removing the crank case oil plug (left hand side
of the crank case at the bottom).
NOTE: Use good quality compressor lubricat-
ing oil.
2. After each subse-
quent 500 hours of
operation, again drain
the oil and refill the
crank case with clean
oil (Fig.12).
3. After each day of op-
eration, use the drain
cock under the tank to drain off any conden-
sate.
4. Regularly check the air filter cartridge inside
the air filter assembly and replace the cartridge
when necessary.
5. Check daily the operation of the safety valve.
This check should be performed when the tank
contains close to max pressure in the tank.
To check the valve, pressurise the tank, and
pull the ring OUTWARDS on the safety valve.
Air should discharge from the valve.

E N G L I S H •
Release the ring of the safety valve. When the
ring is released the air discharge must stop.
WARNINGS: Safety glasses must be worn
when performing this test. Do not have your
face close to the safety valve when performing
this test as air will discharge from the valve at
a high force. If the safety valve does not op-
erate correctly in any way as described above,
turn off the compressor immediately and have
the compressor and safety valve checked and
tested at an authorized Service centre.
DO NOT CONTINUE TO USE THE COMPRESSOR
IN ANY WAY IF THE SAFETY VALVE DOES NOT
WORK AS ABOVE.
GENERAL INSPECTION
1. Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight.
2. The supply cord of the tool should be
checked frequently for damage. If damaged,
have the cordset replaced by an authorized
service facility to avoid a hazard.
CLEANING
1. Keep the tool's air vents unclogged and
clean at all times.
2. Remove dust and dirt regularly. Cleaning is
best done with a soft brush or a rag.
3. Lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals.
4. If the body of the compressor needs clean-
ing, wipe it with a soft damp cloth. A mild de-
tergent can be used but nothing like alcohol,
petrol or other cleaning agent.
5. Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.
CAUTION: Water must never come into
contact with the tool.
POWER CORD MAINTENANCE
Only an authorized service centre should re-
place the cordset or carry out other repairs.
If the cordset is damaged or worn, have it
repaired or replaced by an authorized service
center.
