Compressor Assembly

MAINTENANCE

1.

Check the oil before each use to be sure the level of oil is correct (see illustration on page
5).<>If the oil level is too low, add oil. If it is too high, drain some oil out by removing the drain
plug.

2.

Drain and replace the oil once per year. Replace more often if the compressor is used heavily or
the oil appears dirty.

3.

Check the air filter every six months, or more often if compressor is used in a dirty or dusty
environment. Replacement air filters are available from Harbor Freight Tools.

4.

Drain the air tank after each use, by turning the drain petcock clockwise to open it. Turn the
petcock counterclockwise to close it. It is a good practice to leave the drain plug open between
uses to ensure that the tank remains dry.

5.

Never use flammable liquids or solvents to clean the compressor. For cleaning, unplug the unit,
and clean with a mild detergent and water. Be careful not to introduce water into any electrical
components.
