Montgomery Ward Riverside Compressor Maintenance - no manual so don't know how to maintain

I have a Montgomery Ward Riverside air compressor Model no. 756557. It belonged to my dad who has alzheimers and doesn't remember anything about it. What kind of maintenance should I perform if any

Sounds like it may have been a long time since the lube oil was changed in this compressor, so, I would do that right away. Read the pages to do with compressor oil on this site for more info.

If the pump is covered in dust, clean it off to allow more effective heat dissipation.

Drain the tank, and do that regularly.

Other than that, use it, enjoy it, and post again if you have a specific question. My condolences about your Dad.

Cheers,

Bill
