Maintenance 

(Continued)

AIR FILTER

Never run the compressor pump 
without an intake air filter nor 
with a clogged intake air filter. Use 
compressed air to blow the filter clean. 
Do not wash or oil the element. If it 
cannot be blown clean, the filter must 
be replaced. Operating compressor 
with a dirty filter can cause high 
oil consumption and increase oil 
contamination in the discharge air.

INTERCOOLER (TWO-STAGE 
COMPRESSORS ONLY)

 

Intercooler fins  

  are sharp, always 

wear gloves and use care when you 
clean or work near the intercooler.

Weekly, check the intercooler to be sure 
all fittings are secure and tight. Blow all 
dirt, dust and other accumulations from 
the intercooler fins.

COMPONENTS

Turn off all power and use light air 
pressure to blow dust and foreign 
material from cylinder head, motor, fan 
blades, air lines, intercooler and tank 
on a monthly basis.

BELTS

 

Lock out and tag  

  the power then 

release all pressure from the tank to 
prevent unexpected movement of the 
unit.

Check belt tension every 3 months. 
Adjust belt tension to allow 3/8 to 1/2 
inch deflection with normal thumb 
pressure. Also, align belts using a 
straight edge against the face of the 
flywheel and touching the rim on both 
sides of the face. The belts should be 

parallel to this straight edge (see  
Figure 9). Dimension A should be the 
same as B and C to ensure proper 
alignment of the belts.
Slots in the bed-plate allow for sliding 
the motor back and forth to adjust belt 
tension.

STORAGE

If compressor is to be stored for a short 
period of time, make sure that it is 
stored in a normal position and in a 
cool protected area.

Symptom

Possible Cause(s)

Corrective Action

Motor hums and 
runs slowly or not 
at all

1. Low voltage or no voltage

1. Check with voltmeter, check overload relay in magnetic starter or reset 

switch on motor. If overload or reset switch trips repeatedly, find and 
correct the cause. See next item

2. Shorted or open motor winding

2. Replace motor

3. Malfunctioning check valve or 

unloader valve

3. Replace check valve or unloader valve

4. Malfunctioning pressure switch - 

contacts will not close

4. Repair or replace pressure switch

Reset mechanism 
cuts out repeatedly 
or fuses blow 
repeatedly

1. Pressure switch set too high

1. Adjust or replace

2. Malfunctioning check valve

2. Clean or replace faulty valve

3. Incorrect fuse size or magnetic 

starter heaters 

3. Be sure that fuses and heaters are rated properly

4. Malfunctioning motor

4. Replace motor

5. Loose Wiring

5. Check all electrical connections
