5.
Your air compressor is equipped with a permanently lubricated, maintenance-free motor.
Never try to
lubricate the compressor.
6.
All repairs should be performed by Manufacturer or Manufacturer’s Authorized Service
Agencies only.
CAUTION:
Never touch the air compressor or fittings connected to the air compressor, with bare hands during
or immediately after use. The leader hose and fittings connected to leader hose will become very HOT during
and after use. If necessary, wear heat resistant gloves to handle fittings, air line, and leader hose.
Pneumatic mast:
Masts come from the factory pre-lubricated and require no scheduled maintenance under normal operating
conditions. In extremely harsh environmental conditions, maintenance of the mast might be required. Signs
that cleaning and lubrication are needed can be:
• A noticeable gritty film on the exterior surfaces of the mast sections
• rratic extension or retraction of the mast
• Noisy operation of the mast
• ticking of one or more mast sections when mast is extending or retracting
PROCEDURE:
1.
Remove top load from the mast. This will allow the sections of a non-locking mast to more
easily be
extended from smallest to largest. See Step 3. On locking masts, the sequence of
extension can be
controlled by the locking collars.
2.
When a regulator exists in the pneumatic system, reduce its pressure to between 5 and 10
PSIG.
NOTE: 10 PSIG should be sufficient pressure to extend all sections of the mast without a top load. If any
section will not extend with 10 PSIG the mast may require overhaul. Consult the factory.
3.
One person operating the air control valve should slowly pressurize the mast just enough to
extend the top
mast section.
Another person may need to hold down the larger mast section collars to assure the proper sequence of
extension. Close the air control valve as soon as the mast section is up.
