Daily:

CHECK THE OIL LEVEL. 

Oil should be half up, or at the bottom of the threads on 
the fill spout, or 1/2 full in the sight glass.

DRAIN THE TANK. 

Turn off the power to the compressor and drain all the 
moisture from the bottom of the tank.

Weekly:

CHECK THE OIL. 

If the oil appears contaminated by moisture or dirt, 
change immediately.

CHECK THE BELTS.  

Turn off the compressor and inspect the belts for 
damage, excessive wear, and correct tension.  Replace if 
necessary.

TEST THE SAFETY VALVE.  

Pull the ring on the safety valve.  Air should escape 
and then reset.  In the event the compressor ran over 
pressure, the safety valve would reduce the tank 
pressure to a safe level. Never run the unit without this 
safety valve or attempt to adjust it.

GENERAL INSPECTION.  

Check the overall operation of the unit. Tighten any 
loosen bolts, inspect for air leaks and inspect for any 
unusual noises or vibrations.

INSPECT COMPRESSOR INTAKE.    

NEVER use gasoline, thinners or other flammable 
solutions to clean valves or related parts.  Check to 
be sure the valves are seated against the sealing 
surface around each port.  If the valves are not sealing, 
compressor capacity will be severely reduced.

Maintenance Procedures Review

SAFETY PROCEDURES.

Adherence to safe working procedures are important to Service personnel at the time of servicing and to those who 
may, at a later date be around the compressor and the system it serves.  Routine maintenance insures trouble free 
operation and protects your investment. All warranties are void if maintenance is neglected.
