6. Ensure that the lubricating oil is clean and
that the oil level is maintained at the mid point
of the red circle in the oil level glass.
7. Take care when discharging air from the
tank, i.e. from the safety valve, the drain cock
or the air outlet. Compressed air can be ex-
tremely dangerous. Take care the discharge air
does not cause dust, stones or any other for-
eign particles to be blown through the air and
that the air is discharged in a safe manner.
MAINTENANCE
1. After the first 10 hours of working, empty
the crank case of oil and refill with clean oil by
removing the crank case oil plug (left hand side
of the crank case at the bottom).
NOTE: Use good-quality compressor lubricating oil.
2. Replace oil after the first 50 hours of opera-
tion. Check oil every 150 hours of operation
and replace every 300 hours
of operation.
3. After each day of opera-
tion, use the drain cock un-
der the tank to drain off any
condensate (Fig 12).
4. Check daily the operation of the safety valve.
This check should be performed when the tank
contains close to max pressure in the tank.
To check the valve, pressurise the tank, and
pull the ring OUTWARDS on the safety valve.
Air should discharge from the valve.
Release the ring of the safety valve. When the
ring is released the air discharge must stop.
AIR FILTER
WARNING: Regularly check the foam air filter
inside the air filter assembly and clean or replace
the foam filter when necessary.
1. Use an allen key to remove the two screws
holding the air filter cover on.
2. Remove the air filter assem-
bly and take off the cover and
remove the foam insert (Fig.13).
3. Wash the foam filter in
clean solvent, squeeze out the
remaining solvent and allow
it to dry completely.
4. Add a few drops of ma-
chine oil to the foam filter
and squeeze to distribute.
5. Fit the outer cover into the air filter foam,
and fit the second half of the cover enclosing
the foam filter (Fig.14).
GENERAL INSPECTION
1. Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight.
2. The supply cord of the tool should be
checked frequently for damage. If damaged,
have the cordset replaced by an authorized
service facility to avoid a hazard.
CLEANING
1. Keep the tool’s air vents unclogged and
clean at all times.
2. Remove dust and dirt regularly. Cleaning is
best done with a soft brush or a rag.
3. Re-lubricate all moving parts at regular in-
tervals.
4. If the body of the compressor needs clean-
ing, wipe it with a soft damp cloth. A mild de-
tergent can be used but nothing like alcohol,
petrol or other cleaning agent.
5. Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.
CAUTION: Water must never come into con-
tact with the tool.
POWER CORD MAINTENANCE
Only an authorized service centre should re-
place the cordset or carry out other repairs.
If the cordset is damaged or worn, have it
repaired or replaced by an authorized service
center.
