TROUBLESHOOTING
6.1.
If you are experiencing a problem that is not listed in this chart, or have checked all possible
causes listed and you are still experiencing problems please contact your dealer.
Problem
Possible Causes
Remedies
Pressure drops in
the tank.
Air leaks at connections.
Let the air compressor build up pressure in the tank, to
the maximum pressure. If possible brush soapy water on
air connections and look carefully for air bubbles.
Tighten leaky connections. If problem persists contact
your dealer for further advice.
The solenoid
valve leaks when
the compressor is
idle.
Non-return valve seal
defective.
Let the air in the tank flow out until all pressure is
released. Then remove the no-return valve plug and
clean the valve seal. If necessary replace the seal and
then reinstall all components.
The compressor
stops and does
not restart.
Overload cut-out
operated because of
motor overheating.
Check that the mains voltage corresponds to
specification. An extension cord that is too thin or too
long can cause a volt drop and cause the motor to
overheat. Allow motor to cool down. Use heavy duty
extension leads. Make sure the compressor is plugged
into a socket as close to the supply as possible.
Motor winding are burnt
out.
Contact your dealer.
The motor does
not start and
makes a
humming noise.
Capacitor is burned out.
Replace starter capacitor.
The motor does
not start or starts
slowly.
Low voltage supply to the
motor.
Check that the mains voltage corresponds to
specification. An extension cord that is too thin or too
long can cause a volt drop and cause the motor to
overheat. Allow motor to cool down. Use heavy duty
extension leads. Make sure the compressor is plugged
into a socket as close to the supply as possible.
The compressor is
noisy with
metallic clangs.
Compressor head gasket
