Care and maintenance
• The compressor’s first oil change should be done after 10 hours of operation.
• Thereafter, the oil should then be changed and the air filter (1) cleaned after every 120 hours of use.
• Check the safety valve (10) by pulling its ring. If the safety valve works (and there is pressure in the pressure
vessel ) air should escape through the safety valve.
• Regularly check that the ventilation port in the oil filler cap (5) is open.
• Regularly check that all bolts holding the compressor and pressure vessel together are tight.
• Make it a habit to open the drain tap (6) to release any trapped condensation in the pressure vessel .
• Do not clean the compressor or pressure vessel with solvents or flammable liquids.
• If the compressor is not to be used for an extended period: Unplug it from the mains, empty the pressure
vessel and drain it using the drain tap (6).
Changing the oil
1. Turn off and unplug the compressor from the wall socket before changing the oil.
2. Remove the oil filler plug (5).
3. Carefully loosen the drain screw under the oil display window (4) and empty the oil into a proper receptacle.
Tip the compressor so that all oil is emptied.
4. Once this is done refit the drain screw.
5. Replace with new oil until the oil reaches the middle of the oil-display window.
6. Refit the oil filler plug.
Oil capacity: Approx 2.5 dl
• Use SAE 30 compressor oil at temperatures above +10˚C.
• Use SAE 10 compressor oil at temperatures below +10˚C.
Compressor oil is especially designed for compressors, e.g. it has additives that prevent foaming.
If no compressor oil is available then SAE 10-30 engine oil can be used as a substitute.
Troubleshooting guide
The compressor does
not start.
• Is it plugged into a wall socket?
• Is the wall socket live?
• Has the motor’s overload protection tripped? Reset by pushing in the button (2).
• Is the mains lead damaged?
Heavy vibrations and/
or unusual sounds.
• Check that all bolts holding the compressor and pressure vessel together are tight.
• Check all other joints and connections.
No pressure build-up
in vessel or pressure
too low.
• Make sure the safety valve is not leaking.
• Make sure the drain tap is not leaking.
• Check all hose connections for leaks.
• Air filter is clogged.
Oil consumption
too high.
