Maintenance

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

 

Condensate forms in the tank when 
there is humidity in the air. Depending on 
the environmental conditions, drain the 
condensate daily and/or every hour. For 
instructions, see 

Draining the tank 

section of 

the manual.

 

The safety valve automatically releases air 
when the receiver pressure exceeds the preset 
maximum. 

 

Inspect the tank annually for rust, pin holes, 
or other imperfections that could cause it to 
become unsafe.

 

Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic 
parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage 
from various types of commercial solvents and 
may be damaged by their use.

 

Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, 
grease, etc.

WARNING:

 When servicing, use only identical Husky 

replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a 
hazard or cause product damage.

WARNING:

 Always release all pressure, disconnect from 

power supply, and allow unit to cool to the touch before 
cleaning or making repairs on the air compressor.

WARNING:

 Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, 

petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc., come 
in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, 
weaken or destroy plastic which may result in serious 
personal injury. Electric tools used on fiberglass material, 
wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster are subject to 
accelerated wear and possible premature failure because 
the fiberglass chips and grindings are highly abrasive to 
bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. Consequently, we 
do not recommended using this tool for extended work on 
these types of materials. However, if you do work with any 
of these materials, it is extremely important to clean the 
tool using compressed air.
