10. TROUBLESHOOTING.
Problems
Reasons
Solutions
Compressor does not run.

2. The main voltage is too low.
3. External temperature is too low.
4. Motor overheats.
1. Check cable, plug, fuse and
outlet.

may eliminate the failure.
Compressor runs but has
no pressure.
1. The valve (18) leaks
2. The seal is broken.
3. The condensation drain plug
(4) has become loose.
1. Replace check valve.
2. Get broken seal
replaced by a specialist.
3. Tighten the screw by hands.
Check the seals on the screw
and replace it if necessary.
Compressor is running,
pressure is displayed on
the gauge, but tools do
not run.
1. Hose connections leak.
2. Quick release coupling leak.
3. The pressure is set too low
1. Check the compressed air
hose and tool, replace them if
necessary.
2. Check the quick release
connections
and replace them if necessary.
