Message/Problem 

Possible Causes 

Corrective Action 

HYD OIL TOO COLD 

The hydraulic oil 
temperature is below 
5

o

F (-15

o

C) 

Pre-heat the hydraulic oil before running the 
system. 

No power to display 
box 

Fuse blown or bad 
connection 

Check components, replace fuse inside 
PREDATAIR 

 

ON button pressed/Initial start-up

 

Message/Problem 

Possible Causes 

Corrective Action 

SOFT START XXXPSI 

The system has 
started, but the 
compressor oil 
temperature is still 
cool. 

The system is in “Unload” Mode, until the 
compressor has come up to temperature 
+122

o

F(50

o

C) 

HYD OIL TOO COLD 

The hydraulic oil is 
below -13

o

F (-25

o

C). 

The system is cautioning the operator to preheat the 
hydraulic oil before starting the PTO system. The 
Cold Climate Kit (A700146) can be installed to 
speed warm-up once the hydraulic oil temperature 
has reached 

–13

o

F(-25

o

C). 

HYD OIL WARMING, 
HYD XXXF/XXXC 

The hydraulic oil is 
between -13

o

F(-25

o

C) 

and +5

o

F(-15

o

C) 

Keep circulating hydraulic fluid until the system 
warms sufficiently to start. If installed, the Cold 
Climate Kit (A700146) will speed warm-up. The 
Predatair won’t start until the hydraulic oil has 
warmed to +5

o

F(- 15

o

C). 

PREDATAIR does not 
start when the ON 
button is pressed. 

Inappropriate 
conditions for start-up. 

Check display box for messages. 

Hydraulic solenoid 
failure. 

. Check solenoid and connections. 

Hydraulic motor or 
compressor seized. 

Check motor and compressor will roll-over. 

 

Running 

Message/Problem 

Possible Causes 

Corrective Action 

STANDBY XXXPSI 

The air pressure 
stayed above the 
restart pressure for 
the duration of the 
standby delay time. 

The hydraulic solenoid is off, and the system is 
monitoring air pressure and compressor and 
hydraulic oil temperatures. If the air pressure 
drops below the restart pressure, or the 
compressor oil temperature drops below its 
minimum, it will restart and rebuild air. 

Air pressur

e won’t build 

past approx. 40psi. 

The system is in 
SOFT START. 

Wait for the compressor to warm up. 

Unload solenoid on 
inlet valve has failed 

Check solenoid and wiring.
