Check condition of air compressor pump intake and exhaust
valves. Replace if damaged or worn out.
To ensure efficient operation and longer life of the air compressor outfit, a routine maintenance schedule should be prepared
and followed. The following routine maintenance schedule is geared to an outfit in a normal working environment operating
on a daily basis. If necessary, the schedule should be modified to suit the conditions under which your compressor is used.
The modifications will depend upon the hours of operation and the working environment. Compressor outfits in an extremely
dirty and/or hostile environment will require a greater frequency of all maintenance checks.

1.
Before attaching air hose or accessories, make sure the
ON/AUTO lever is set to “OFF” and the air regulator or
globe valve is closed.
2.
Attach hose and accessories.
TOO MUCH AIR PRESSURE CAUSES A HAZARD-
OUS RISK OF BURSTING. CHECK THE MANUFAC-
TURER'S MAXIMUM PRESSURE RATING FOR AIR
TOOLS AND ACCESSORIES. THE REGULATOR
OUTLET PRESSURE MUST NEVER EXCEED THE
MAXIMUM PRESSURE RATING.
Compressed air from the outfit may contain
water condensation. Do not spray unfiltered
air at an item that could be damaged. Some
air operated tools or devices may require
filtered air. Read the instructions for the air
tool or device.
3.
Check the manufacturer’s maximum pressure rating for
air tools and accessories.The regulator outlet pressure
must never exceed the maximum pressure rating. If your
compressor is not supplied with a regulator with gauge,
install one before using accessories.
4. Turn the ON/AUTO lever to “AUTO” and allow tank
pressure to build. Motor will stop when tank pressure
reaches “cut-out” pressure.

12. After the water has been drained, close the drain valve.
The air compressor can now be stored.
NOTE
If drain valve is plugged, release all air pressure.
The valve can then be removed, cleaned, then
reinstalled.
5. Open the globe valve by turning it counter clockwise.
Open the regulator by turning it clockwise. Adjust the
regulator to the correct pressure setting. Your
compressor is ready for use.
6. Always operate the air compressor in well-ventilated
areas; free of gasoline or other solvent vapors. Do not
operate the compressor near the spray area.
When you are finished:
7. Set the “ON/AUTO” lever to “OFF”.
8. Turn the regulator or globe valve counterclockwise and
set the outlet pressure to zero.
9. Remove the air tool or accessory.
10. Open the regulator and allow the air to slowly bleed from
the tank. Close the regulator tank and/or globe valve when
tank pressure is approximately 20 psi.
11. Drain water from air tank by opening drain valve on
bottom of tank.
