MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

WARNING:
Before performing any maintenance or
adjustments to your air compressor,
drain the air receiver and air lines of air
pressure.
1.
Daily or before each use:
- Check oil level.
- Use the drain valve to drain condensation from air
receiver and tank after each use.
- Check for any unusual noises or vibration.
- Be sure all nuts and bolts are tight.
2.
Weekly:
- Turn off power. Clean dust and foreign matter
from cylinder head, engine, fan blades,
intercooler, and air receiver.
- Check air filter and replace if necessary.
- Worn filters should be replaced.
3.
Monthly:
- Inspect unit for leaks.
- Tighten joints if leaks are observed.
4.
Quarterly or 300 Hours (Whichever Comes First):
- Inspect the air receiver for corrosion or other
damage.
- Change compressor oil.
- Replace air filter (more often if compressor is
used near paint spraying operations or in dusty
environments).

ENGINE LUBRICATION

1. Check engine owner's manual for lubrication and
maintenance requirements.

CHECKING BELT TENSION

1. Adjust belt(s) so when pressure is applied at the
center, there is approximately 1/2" slack (see
diagram below):
If the belt is installed too tight, the engine might be
overloaded. This will cause the engine to overheat.
If the belt is installed too loosely, it will slip and
excessive wear and vibration will occur.

HOW TO INSTALL A NEW BELT

1.
Remove belt guard.
2.
Loosen engine bolts and slide engine toward
compressor head just enough to allow the old belt to
be removed.
3.
Install proper replacement belt.
4.
Slide engine away from compressor head to provide
recommended tension as shown in diagram above.
5.
Align belt using a straight edge ruler against pulley's
edge.
6.
Fasten engine bolts.
7.
Ensure engine and compressor pulleys are secure,
and re-check alignment.
8.
Re-install belt guard.
9.
Belt tension should be checked after 20 hours of
operation. Check tension monthly thereafter.
