A+ Verified 100% Pass Guaranteed
• The Cooling System -✓✓The cooling system should be tested every 6 months to make
sure that it is working correctly.
The water supply control valves should always be open when the air compressor is in
operation.
• The Air Intake system -✓✓The air intake filter should be inspected and cleaned
weekly. It should be replaced every 6
months. If at any time the filter is damaged it should be replaced.
• The lubrication Oil -✓✓The Certificate of Fitness holder should refer to the
manufacturer's manual to determine the safe
operating temperatures of the lubrication oil. The level of the lubricating oil (lube oil)
should be
checked weekly using the dipstick. The lube oil is designed to lubricate the moving parts
on the
air compressor. The oil used must be of the grade specified by the compressor
manufacturer.
The lube oil should be replaced every six months.
• The Automatic low-level Inidicator -✓✓The automatic low-level oil indicator switch
should be tested every 3 months. This is tested by
manually draining the oil from the air compressor when it is running. The indictor switch
will
shut down the air compressor within a few minutes if it is working correctly. When
testing the

however, there is one exception. Do not drain moisture from the air compressor when
the
ambient temperature drops below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. This is done by opening the
drain
valve and draining off the excess water. All safety valves should be manually operated
every
week. This is to ensure that they will function correctly in case of an emergency. It is
recommended that the air receiver tank be pressure tested at a minimum of every 5
years by a
