Before cleaning the drain pipe, intercooler, aftercooler,
control line filter, or replacing the check valve, reduce
the internal pressure to 0 (zero) by opening the
condensate drain. Stop the air compressor and
disconnect the main power. Close the stop valve of the
compressed air discharge. Remove rear panel (1) [Ref

.
Verify that the interstage pressure (
INTSTG.P
) and
discharge pressure (
DIS PRESS
) is 0 (zero) on the
LCD monitor. In addition, remove the parts slowly
because the pressure is still remained in air pipings due
to the wrong operation or piping works.
