Quincy Compressor 206

Measure the span length of the drive (in inches)

Calculate the required deflection (in inches)

Lay a straightedge across the top outer surface of the drive belt from pulley to sheave

Apply pressure with a belt tension gauge and record the deflection force reading

Is the deflection force reading within the minimum and maximum values?

Adjust the belt(s) if the deflection force reading is not within the specified range

Tension new belts to the maximum value plus 33% (multiply by 1.33)

Ensure all necessary parts are in place

Check the lubricant level in the crankcase

Has the compressor been operated for 100 hours or 1 month?

Replace break-in lubricant with QuinCip lubricant

Determine correct lubricant amount and viscosity

Is the lubricant pour point at least 15°F lower than the minimum expected ambient temperature?

Drain liquid from the air receiver and moisture trap

Jog the starter button and check compressor rotation

Start compressor per factory instructions

Check all pressure relief valves for proper operation

Check control system for proper operation

Manually operate the pressure relief valves to ensure they are working

Cooling and Compressor Maintenance

Clean the cooling surfaces of the intercooler

Clean the cooling surfaces of the compressor

Record oil level on bayonet gauge

Is the oil discolored or at a higher level than normal?

Drain and replace oil if contaminated

Drain drop legs and traps in air distribution system

Perform overall visual inspection of the compressor

Ensure safety guards are in place

Is there any unusual noise or vibration?
