Troubleshoot
No Air Pressure Build-Up :
- Ensure all connections are tight and secure.
- Check the tank for any visible damages or cracks.
- Inspect the inlet valve for any blockages.
Rapid Air Loss :
- Examine the tank for any visible punctures or leaks.
- Ensure the safety valve is functioning properly and not releasing air prematurely.
- Check all outlet ports and the drain valve to ensure they are closed tightly.
Pressure Gauge Not Reading or Misreading :
- Ensure the pressure gauge is facing upwards as intended.
- Gently tap the gauge to see if the needle moves or corrects itself.
- Consider replacing the gauge if it remains unresponsive or inaccurate.
Drain Valve Issues :
- If the drain valve is stuck, try lubricating it and ensure it’s free of debris.
- If it’s leaking, make sure it’s closed properly. If it still leaks, consider replacing the valve.
Safety Valve Releasing Air Early :
- The safety valve is designed to release air if the pressure exceeds a safe level. If it releases air prematurely, it might be faulty and should be replaced.
Difficulty in Connecting Tools :
- Ensure you are using the correct size quick couplers.
- Check the couplers for any visible damage or wear.
Unusual Noises or Vibrations :
- Ensure the tank is on a stable surface.
- Check for any loose parts or components.
Reduced Air Flow :
- Check for any blockages in the outlet ports.
- Make sure the inlet valve is fully open and not obstructed.
