How do I remove the cover on my Hitachi air compressor

First, you have to determine how it is attached usually they are screwed or bolted into place or simply held into place by clips or pressure. But there are many different models so please post the model of your machine so it can be identified or even a photo.

I have an Hitachi nail gun andThe bolts on the nose to the body keep breaking is there a solution to this problem the air pressure is always kept it between 100 psi

This is a common problem with this model - the typical reason for this is overdriving the piston which is usually caused by air pressure being too high. It can also be from using it on thin or soft wood (using it to nail plywood to plywood etc)

We have an EC79 Hitachi air compressor. The pressure relief is supposed to stop automatically when full, but this one turns ON and lets the air out. Once it opens, we have to turn the Hitachi off.

If u are talking about the bleed off that blows when the compressor shuts off. It should blow down for a short period then stop. If it dont stop your tank check valve is bad.

Ec 12 Hitachi air compresser not building up air pressure

So the first (most obvious but sometimes overlooked) thing - check to make sure the tank drains are closed. Listen for a leak at the pressure switch - it will continue to leak after the compressor shuts off. If this is the case then you need a check valve (Part # 53A on the breakdown) If it builds pressure but not enough to shut off and there are no leaks I would look at the valves located in the head (Part # 14 on the breakdown) - piston rings are not a normal failure part on this model but could also cause this.

Air pressure on my air compressor

This problem is usually caused by reed valves or blown gasket between head and valve plate. Easy to check. After the compressor reaches 45 to 50 psi, with compressor still running, remove the air filter and feel for good suction at the intake port. If the air seems to be blowing out of the intake, then valves are bad. If you feel good suction at the intake, then air is leaking from the discharge tubing or other fittings. Good luck

Use of Hitachi EC510 air compressor

Pressure gage A shows the pressure in the tank. Pressure gage B shows what you have adjusted the output pressure to be. If it is reading 0psi and it is new it is probably because the manufacturer has set it at that level. You have an adjustment valve on the front of your compressor. Rotate it until you see the pressure start to rise then keep going to where you want it set at.

How do I remove the fan on Hitachi EC89

To remove the fan you will need a decent bearing puller - it is press-fit onto the armature shaft and doesn't come off easily. 6a00d83451706569e20120a7d7f5b4970b-msb1t3ug232aoetlvkk5zhhr-4-0.jpg

I have a hitachi NR83A2 and have had some leaks. When plugged into the air supply the gun blows air through the nose. Shoots fine but blows a LOT of air constantly. Already replaced all orings. Ideas?

recheck the "O" rings for one rolled over or nicked when assembling put a small screw driver blade under the "o" rings and travel around the piston several times to allow the ring to settle in properly

Replacement Parts

A lot of the compressors I have had were discontinued before I ever received them. I know what ordering the right part can be like. If you can give me a description of what the part does or where it is located I will brain storm with you to find a work around. If you leave a comment it will email me.
