## 🔌 Function

The compressor is engine-driven and supplies pressurised air to onboard air-operated systems and reservoirs. It draws in and compresses air continuously while the engine runs, with delivery regulated by the system's governor and pressure controls.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Slow build-up of system air pressure or failure to reach cut-out pressure
-   Excessive oil carry-over into the air lines or reservoir
-   Knocking, rattling or squealing noise from the compressor while running
-   Air leakage from the head, gaskets or discharge connection
-   Overheating of the compressor body or scored, worn cylinder and piston components

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Renew the gaskets and O-rings at the mounting and drive joint, and make sure the oil feed and drain passages are clear and that the unit gets lubrication before it is put under load
-   Check the drive — gear backlash, coupling condition, or belt condition and pulley alignment — as the workshop manual for your engine specifies; a misaligned drive will destroy a new unit
-   Fit clean and check the delivery pipe and downstream lines for carbon build-up and restriction; a choked delivery line makes the compressor run hot and is often the real reason the old one failed
-   Drain accumulated condensate and oil from the system and service the air filtration and drying arrangement before running the new unit
-   Treat it as a unit rather than attempting internal repair or adjustment outside the procedures in the workshop manual for your engine, then run up afterwards and check for air and oil leaks at the joints and confirm the system builds and holds pressure as the manual describes
