6.1 GENERAL
As you proceed in reading this section, it will be easy to
see that the Maintenance Program for the air compressor
is quite simple. The use of the service indicators provided
for the fluid filter, air filter and fluid separator will alert you
when service maintenance is required. When the WS
Controller display indicates service, maintenance for that
specific item is required. See instructions for each item in
Fluid Filter Maintenance on page 40.
6.2 DAILY OPERATION
Prior to starting the compressor, it is necessary to check
the fluid level in the receiver tank. Should the level be low,
simply add the necessary amount. If the addition of fluid
becomes too frequent, a simple problem has developed
which is causing this excessive loss. See the
Troubleshooting Guideon page 43 under EXCESSIVE
COMPRESSOR FLUID CONSUMPTION for a probable
cause and remedy.
WARNING
HIGH-PRESSURE HAZARD!
• DO NOT remove caps, plugs, and/or
other components when
compressor is running or
pressurized. Stop compressor and
relieve all internal pressure before
doing so.
• Failure to comply could result in
death or serious injury.
After a routine start has been made, observe the controller
display and be sure it monitors the correct readings for
their particular phase of operation. After the compressor
has warmed up, it is recommended that a general check
on the overall compressor be made to assure that the
compressor is running properly.
6.3 MAINTENANCE EVERY 2000
HOURS
After 2000 hours of operation, it will be necessary to
perform the following:
1. Replace the fluid filter element.
6.4 FLUID MAINTENANCE
Drain the receiver tank and change the compressor fluid
using instructions shown in Lubrication Guide,
