How do I take apart a dewalt d5141 compr3ssor?
This number is for the D20114 its the safety valve that can not be set to a max basic pressure .
its strange but its not adjustable it can be defect i have one time the same the experience there is not a adjustable Pressure Switch on this model , the moast compressors have a 8 to12 bar adjustable.pressure switch.
Very important This safety valve gives an electronic brake between the pump and to a end of top about 10 bar . if its not switching off then a drain valve opened . and blows all the air out. (but only over 10 bar ) the max pressure on the tank , the moast tools are working on a pressure from 6 to 8 bar.

Checking Safety Valve
WARNING: Risk of bursting. If the safety valve does not work
properly, over-pressurization may occur, causing air tank rupture or
an explosion.
Before starting compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve to
make sure that the safety valve operates freely. If the valve is
stuck or does not operate smoothly, it must be replaced with the
same type of valve.
Draining Air Tank (Fig. 1)
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Risk from noise. Air tanks
contain high pressure air. Keep face and other body parts away from
outlet of drain. Use safety glasses when draining as debris can be
kicked up into face. Use ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) ear protection as air flow
noise is loud when draining.
NOTE: All compressed air systems generate condensate that
accumulates in any drain point (e.g., tanks, filter, aftercoolers,
dryers). This condensate contains lubricating oil and/or substances
which may be regulated and must be disposed of in accordance with
local, state, and federal laws and regulations.
1. Ensure On/Off switch (A) is in the OFF position.
2. Move compressor into an inclined position so drain valve (H) is
at the lowest point (this will assist in removing moisture, dirt, etc.
from air tanks)
3. Place a suitable container under the drain valve to catch
discharge.
4. Grasp black lever on drain valve.
5. Slowly rotate lever to gradually bleed air from air tank.
6. When air tank pressure gauge reads 10 PSI (275.1 kPa), rotate
valve to the fully open position.
7. Close drain valve when finished
