Always pull out the plug and drain the receiver once you have completed your work
(figures 10-11)
8 MAINTENANCE
Before carrying out any operation, always pull out the plug and drain the receiver
completely (figures 10-11)
Check that all screws ( in particular those of the head of the unit) are tightly drawn up. The
check must be carried out prior to the first compressor starting.
After loosening any safety screws (fig. 12a), clean the intake filter according to the type of
working environment and at least every 100hours (figures 12b-12c). if necessary, replace
the filter element (clogging of the filter reduces compressor performance and an inefficient
filter causes increased wear).
For lubricated models, replace the oil after the first 100 hours of operation and every 300
hours sebsequently (figures 13a-13b-13c). remember to check the oil level at regular
intervals.
Use API CC/SC SAE 40. (for cold climates, API CC/SC SAE 20 is recommended). Never
mix different grade oils. If the oil changes color (whiish = presence of water, dark =
overheated), it is good practice to replace the oil immediately.
Periodically (or after working with the compressor for more than an hour), drain the
condensate that forms inside the receiver (fig. 11) due to the humidity in the air. This
protects the receiver from corrosion and does not restrict its capacity.
Spent oil (lubricated models) and condensate MUST BE DISPOSED OF in accordance
with environmental protection regulations and current legislation.
