Use and Care Manual

MAINTENANCE

CLEAN AND INSPECT DAILY

CAUTION - Disconnect tool from power supply before cleaning and inspection. Correct all problems before

operation.

Oil-free operation requires no external lubrication. Open the air release valve after operation to drain water and

contaminations out. Wipe the tool clean. Blow the tool clean using high compressed air, then use non-flammable

cleaning solutions to wipe exterior of the tool as necessary, particularly before storage. Do not soak tool with

cleaning solutions. Such solutions can damage internal parts. Keep the handle clean, dry and free from slippery

substances such as oil or grease.

Do not overtighten connections to avoid creating leaks.

Inspect the machine components before operation to make sure that there are no damaged or worn parts. Re-

place any damaged parts immediately. Do not operate if there are any damaged components. Only repair using

identical replacement parts.

Drain the tank daily after use. To minimize moisture inside of the unit, tip the compressor during drainage so that

the drain valve is aimed directly towards the ground. This will allow all moisture to collect at the bottom of the

compressor and drain completely.

TESTING FOR LEAKS

Make sure all connections are tight and secure before testing for leaks. A small leak in any hoses or connectors

will greatly reduce the abilities of the compressor. To locate a leak, simply spray a mixture of soap and water

across the entire surface of both the tank and the hose (wherever the leak is believed to be). Bubbles will begin to

appear if a leak is indeed present. Fix immediately. Try to avoid getting soapy water near any of the inlets on the

tank or the pump.
