Troubleshooting

Compressor not turning on

Ensure all hose and airbrush connections are tight. Check and empty the water separator. Verify the airbrush nozzle is clean and not blocked.

Water or moisture in the air supply

Drain the water separator thoroughly. Ensure the airbrush is not overly saturated and allow the compressor to run for a short period to dry the system.
