Expert Advice

  • The air delivery test is conducted at sea level (0–10 metres). As altitude increases, air delivery will decrease accordingly.
  • Drain your compressor tank daily after use to avoid build-up and contamination.
  • Do not run your compressor on electrical extension cords as this will cause a voltage drop which will inevitably cause damage to your machine.

Troubleshooting Guide

ProblemPossible CauseSolution
Slow build-up of pressureLoose belt / worn piston ringsTighten or replace belt, replace rings if worn

FAQs

How tight should the belt be?

Firm but with a slight flex when pressed.

How often should I change oil?

Every 3 months or 300 hours of use.

Can I store the compressor outside?

No, keep it dry and protected to prevent rust and electrical damage.

Is belt noise normal?

A slight whir is normal; squealing means the belt needs adjustment or replacement.
