Air Line: Service and Repair

NOTE: A soapy water solution can be applied to the air lines to verify the location of air leaks.

1. If a leak is detected in an air line, it can be repaired by carefully making a good, clean, straight cut. Trim back the outer covering of the air line 16-20 mm (0.63-0.78 inch) to reveal the white inner line. Install a repair fitting and wrap securely with electrical tape.
2. If multiple leaks are detected, replace the entire air line.
