One of the most common problems a tire technician can face every day when using his air operated hydraulic pump is outside contamination of the air motor. This contamination, more often than not, will come directly from the air compressor. The compressor will build up sludge in the air tank over time, and if it is not drained on a daily basis this sludge will end up in the air motor of your air hydraulic pump. The sludge contamination will wear air motor seals prematurely and will directly affect the operating efficiency of the pump and will lead to an eventual failure.
What can be done to minimize this problem?
· Drain the air compressor daily.
· Install an in line “moisture block” or regulator lubricator filter in the air line from the air compressor.
· Change the filter in the air inlet of the pump periodically.
· Squirt a few drops of Marvel Mystery Oil into the air inlet side of the pump daily.
· Have the air motor serviced by a trained repair technician.
