Transport
Always switch off the air compressor and de-pressurise the air receiver tank before transporting the
unit. Turn the engine fuel valve off, if fitted, and always keep the compressor upright to prevent oil
or fuel spillage.
Ensure that adequate lifting equipment is available for moving and loading the compressor. Lifting
equipment, slings, etc. must be properly rated for the weight of the compressor.
Take care when attaching load restraining devices to ensure that the compressor does not tip over
during transport, especially because of its high centre of gravity.
Check with the carrier whether lubricating oil or engine fuel must be drained out prior to transport. If
so, ensure that the party receiving the compressor is notified accordingly.
Keep the compressor covered during transport to prevent the ingress of dust and debris.
10.0 Storage
Always switch off the air compressor and then de-pressurise and drain the air receiver tank before
storing the unit.
Turn the engine fuel valve off, if fitted, and always keep the compressor upright to prevent oil or fuel
spillage.
Store the compressor in a cool, dry and shaded place and keep it covered to prevent the ingress of
dust and debris.
If storing the compressor for a long period, the following additional preparations should be made:
•
Change the compressor pump lubricating oil and clean the entire unit in accordance with
the maintenance instructions.
•
Petrol air compressors: Check that the engine control switch is turned off and drain all
petrol from the fuel tank and piping. Remove the spark plug and pour a tablespoon of clean
engine oil into the cylinder. Crank the engine several revolutions to distribute the oil and
then reinstall the spark plug. Remove the 12 Volt battery, if fitted, and recharge it once a
month.
•
Diesel air compressors: Check that the engine control switch is turned off and drain all
diesel from the fuel tank and piping. Pull the starter handle slowly until strong resistance is
felt and then return it slowly. At this point, the engine’s inlet and exhaust valves should be
closed during the compression stroke and this should help to prevent rust forming inside
the cylinder while the engine is not is use. Remove the 12 Volt battery, if fitted, and
recharge it once a month.
