TROUBLE SHOOTING
With considerate use, your CLARKE Air Compressor should provide you with long
and trouble free service. Routine checks should be made on both the electrical
supply as well as on all the compressed air lines and connections. If any fault
appears, the reason for which is not immediately obvious, we recommend that
you contact your local CLARKE Dealer.
CAUTION Do not attempt any repair or adjustment if you are uncertain as to how
it should be done. If you have any queries, contact your local CLARKE Dealer.
