CAUTIONS

MAINTENANCE

CLEAN THE AIR FILTERS (MONTHLY)

The air filters must be examined monthly and 
more often in dusty conditions:

1. Unscrew the filters from the compressor.

2. Remove the filter covers from the filters.

3. Clean the sponge and the filter cover

using a soft brush. If necessary, the filters
can be carefully cleaned in warm soapy
water. Rinse and let the filters dry com-
pletely before refitting.

4. Make sure that the filters and filter cov-

ers are replaced into position. If the
filters are damaged, you must replace
them.

CLEANING

1. Open drain cock under the tank to ex-

haust condensate after every use.

2. Clean the crankcase and renew the oil,

clean air filter, and check safety valve and
pressure gauge after every 120 working
hours.
