Checking the Relief Valve
Pull the relief valve daily to ensure that it is operating properly and to clear
the valve of any possible obstructions.
Testingfor Leaks
Check that all connections are tight. A small leak in any of the hoses or pipe
connections will substantially reduce the performance of your air compressor.
If you suspect a leak, spray a small amount of soapy water around the area
of the suspected leak with a spray bottle. If bubbles appear, repair or replace
the faulty component. Do not overtighten any connections.
Storage
Before storing the compressor for a prolonged period, use an air blow gun to
clean all dust and debris from the STORAGE compressor. Disconnect the
power cord and coil it up. Pull the pressure relief valve to release all pressure
from the tank. Drain all moisture from the tank. Cover the entire unit to protect
it from moisture and dust.
