While compressor is pumping to pressure and after pressure cuts
out, look for air bubbles to form.
** The pump oil must be changed after the first 20 hours of operation.
Thereafter, when using SAe 5W-40 full synthetic oil, change oil every

Checking Safety Valve (Fig. 1)
WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Aftercooler, pump head, and
surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot Surfaces
identified in Fig. 2). Allow compressor to cool prior to servicing.
WARNING: Risk of bursting. If the safety valve does not work
properly, over-pressurization may occur, causing air tank rupture or
an explosion.
Before starting compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve to make
sure that the safety valve operates freely. If the valve is stuck or does
not operate smoothly, it must be replaced with the same type of
valve.
Checking Air Filter Element (Fig. 1)
WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Aftercooler, pump head, and
surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot Surfaces
identified in Fig. 2). Allow compressor to cool prior to servicing.
