Maintenance; Cleaning; Cleaning Or Changing The Air Filter; Draining The Air Tank - Flexzilla CF10050F Mode D'emploi

Flexzilla Electric Operated, Oil-Free Portable Air Compressors
Shutting down the compressor:
1.) Turn the power switch to the OFF position.
2.) Disconnect the power cord from the power supply
and wrap the power cord around the air
compressor handle to reduce the risk of damage.
3.) Release all the pressure and moisture from the air
tank by manually opening the drain valve.
4.) Clean the air compressor to remove all dirt
and dust.
Before storing for a prolonged period of time:
5.) Cover the air compressor to protect the unit from
dust and moisture.
6.) Do not stack or store any items on top of or around
the air compressor. Damage could occur.

4. MAINTENANCE

4.1 Cleaning

Clean items with a soft brush, or wipe with a
moistened cloth using a biodegradable solvent.
Do not use flammable liquids such a gasoline or
alcohol. Always keep parts clean from dirt and dust for
better performance.

4.2 Cleaning or Changing the Air Filter

The air filter is designed to reduce noise and help
prevent particulates in the air from entering and
damaging the air compressor.
After being used for a period of time, the air filter
will become clogged. This will reduce the air
intake capabilities of the air compressor, reducing
performance. Therefore, the air filter must be cleaned
or replaced regularly.
1.) Open the lid on the air filter, then remove the air
filter element.
2.) To clean the element, blow off or brush off the dirt
and dust.
3.) If clogged, replace with a new air filter.

4.3 Draining the Air Tank

The frequency at which you should drain the air
tank depends on the environmental conditions and
the amount of operation time logged. The average
draining frequency is every 1 to 2 days.
1.) Place the air compressor above a container
capable of holding water.
2.) With compressed air in the air tank, slowly turn
the drain valve knob to the forward (open) or
straight position. The water in the air tank will
drain out.
3.) After all of the accumulated water has drained out,
turn the drain valve knob to the closed or left
position in order to avoid leakage.
4.) Draining the air tank protects parts from rust and
corrosion.

4.4 Pressure Switch

The pressure switch is factory pre-set to shut off at
between 120-125 PSI and restart at between
90-95 PSI.

4.5 Testing for Leaks

Make sure all connections are tight. Do not
overtighten.
A small leak in any hose or pipe connection will
reduce the air compressor's performance.
To test for small leaks, spray a small amount of soapy
water on the area suspected of leaking. If the soap
bubbles, replace the broken part.
