Troubleshooting and Maintenance Guide for the Hyundai HY3050V/HY30100V Portable Electric Air Compressor

Troubleshooting:

Maintenance & Care

WARNING: Service and maintenance must be performed by an authorised agent. DO NOT tamper with, or attempt to adjust the pressure switch or safety valve. Before moving or carrying out any maintenance on the compressor, make sure that the ignition switch is OFF and the air tank pressure has been vented and the compressor allowed to cool down for a period of time. 

DRAINING THE AIR TANK:

• You should drain the tank at the end of each day.
• Place a suitable container capable of holding water, underneath the compressor.
• With compressed air in the tank, slowly turn the drain knob to the open position. The water in the tank will drain out.
• Once the water has drained, turn the drain knob to the closed position.
• Draining the tank reduces the risk of corrosion inside the tank.

AIR FILTER:

• The air filter is designed to reduce noise and help prevent particulates in the air from entering and damaging the air compressor.
• After being used for a period of time, the air filter will become clogged. This will reduce the air intake capabilities of the compressor, reducing performance. Therefore, the air filter must be cleaned or replaced regularly.
• Open the cover on the air filter and remove the filter element.
• Inspect the filter element and if damaged or worn, replace immediately.
• Blow the dirt from the air filter from the inside out. You can use a low pressure airline to do this.
• Reinstall the air filter.

LEAK TESTING:

• A small leak in any hose or connection will reduce the air compressors performance.
• To test for leaks, spray a small amount of soapy water on the area suspected of leaking. If soap bubbles appear, replace the broken part.

CLEANING:

• Clean the compressor with a soft brush or moist cloth.
• DO NOT use a pressure washer or hose pipe as water can penetrate the motor and cause failure that will not be covered by the warranty.
• DO NOT use solvent based cleaning products, these could damage parts.

STORAGE:

• Turn off the power and wrap the power cord around the compressor.
• Pull the relief valve and release all the pressure from the air tank.
• Clean the air compressor to remove all dirt and dust.
• Cover the air compressor with a cover to protect the unit from dust and moisture.
• DO NOT stack or store other items on top of or around the air compressor.
