FAQs

How often should I drain the tank?

What type of oil should I use?

Consult the user manual for the recommended oil type. Typically, a non-detergent air compressor oil is used.

How do I check for air leaks?

Apply soapy water to connections and fittings. Bubbles indicate a leak.

What is the purpose of the thermal overload protector?

It protects the motor from overheating and damage.

What safety precautions should I take?

Always wear safety glasses. Ensure the work area is well-ventilated, and never exceed the maximum pressure rating of the compressor or the tools.

How do I replace the air filter?

Consult the user manual for filter type and replacement instructions.
