in order to keep the compressor in good working condition, periodic maintenance is essential.
 imporTANT! Failure to carry out maintenance tasks may invalidate the warranty on your
compressor.
 wArNiNG! before performing any maintenance operation, switch off compressor, disconnect
from power supply and vent air from tank. remove front and rear panels to provide access
and light.
5.1 operATioNs To be cArrieD oUT AFTer THe FirsT 5 worKiNG HoUrs:
5.1.1 check that all nuts/bolts are tight, particularly those retaining the crankcase and cylinder heads.
5.2 operations to be carried out after the first 100 working hours:
5.2.1 replace the lubricating oil (see 5.9. below).
5.3 operATioNs To be cArrieD oUT DAiLY:
5.3.1 regularly clean dirt and dust away from the safety devices with a clean cloth or blowing with low pressure . .
compressed air. Generally keep the compressor clean.
5.4 operATioNs To be cArrieD oUT weeKLY:
5.4.1 Drain condensation by opening the valve located under the tank of sAc89024VLn (fig.7) or the bottom of the front panel on
sAc82425VLn (fig.6G). Place a container under the valve to collect any condensation, as it may contain residual oil.
close valve after draining condensation and dispose of it safely.
5.5 operATioNs To be cArrieD oUT moNTHLY: sAc89025vLN
(or more frequently, if the compressor operates in a very dusty atmosphere)
5.5.1 clean the air filters. turn off the compressor and using stored air from it's tank, clean the filters with compressed air. the top cover
of sAc89025VLn needs to be removed. remove the air filter assembly by removing the single phillips screw.
 imporTANT! Wear eye protection and Do NoT direct air towards the body or hands. Do NoT operate the compressor without the
filters as foreign bodies or dust could seriously damage the pump. replace the filter elements.
5.6 operATioNs To be cArrieD oUT everY 50 HoUrs: sAc82425vLN
(or more frequently, if the compressor operates in a very dusty atmosphere)
5.6.1 clean the air filters. turn off the compressor and using stored air from it's tank, clean the filters with compressed air. Both side
panels of sAc89025VLn need to be removed. remove the air filter assembly by removing the single phillips screw.
 imporTANT! Wear eye protection and Do NoT direct air towards the body or hands. Do NoT operate the compressor without the
filters as foreign bodies or dust could seriously damage the pump. replace the filter elements.
5.7 operATioNs To be cArrieD oUT everY 100 HoUrs:
5.7.1 check oil level, top up if necessary, one of the side panels on sAc89025VLn will need to be removed to check the oil level.
5.7.2 check for oil leaks.
5.8 operATioNs To be cArrieD oUT everY 200 HoUrs:
5.8.1 check the automatic cut-out at maximum pressure, and the automatic cut-in at 2 bar below maximum pressure.
5.8.2 replace air filters (see 5.5 / 5.6).
5.9 operATioNs To be cArrieD oUT everY 500 HoUrs:
5.9.1 replace the lubricating oil.
remove the oil breather plug/dipstick then remove oil drain bolt (fig.8), draining oil into a suitable container. Drain when the
compressor is hot if possible, so that the oil drains rapidly and completely.
NoTe! for sAc89025vLN its recommended to use a suction oil drainer, due to the design of the compressor, space around the drain plug is
minimal. incline compressor to ensure complete drainage. replace oil drain bolt and refill with fresh oil through the oil filler/breather
aperture (fig.8). Do NoT overfill. replace oil breather plug/dipstick.
recommended oils:
synthetic oil suitable for temperatures ranging from -5°c to 45°c: viscosity 5W50. We do not recommend using mineral oil in these
compressors.
Part no. Qty. Description
fso1 1ltr x 12 compressor oil fully synthetic
fso1s 1ltr x 1 compressor oil fully synthetic
fso5 5ltr x 1 compressor oil fully synthetic
 wArNiNG! Dispose of waste oil only in accordance with local authority requirements.
5.10. imporTANT wArNiNG - Air contaminants taken into the compressor will affect optimum performance. Example: Body filler dust or paint
overspray will clog the pump intake filter and may cause internal damage to pump/motor components. Please note that any parts
damaged by any type of contamination will not be covered by warranty.
