I bought this compressor about 18 months ago. It has right at 20 hours of use on it and has been pretty good for most of that time. I had some electrical issues with it at first and found that it was the cheap connectors on the switches. I got that fixed then had a tube leaking from the filter to the outlet block. Hatsan sent me new switches and a tube at no charge so no complaint there. That was all in the first three hours of use. Since then its been pretty good.
Now to the present- One day it quit filling past 200 bar or so and I found that same line was leaking again. I ordered and paid for one from Hatsan and got it within a week. After I installed the new line I had another leak at the fitting where it screws into the top of the filter. MY bad as I stripped the threads when installing the new fitting. So I ordered a new cap for the filter from Hatsan. Another week and I had my part. Got it installed and all was good-- for one run. I had pressure in my coolant tank. So I tore the high side apart and found a bad oring on top of the high side cyl. While I was at it I replaced the high side piston rings and all orings. Cleaned out the check valve and replaced the washers on the fittings. started up and now it blew out the top gasket on the low side reed plate. I replaced both gaskets started it up again. At 240 bar it blew again. This time I put some Indian Head gasket cement on the gaskets and installed a brand new reed plate assy and let it sit overnight. Yesterday I ran it and at 300 bar it blew again. It blows the top gasket around the reed valve to the inside. I'm down to my last gasket for the top of the reed valve but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or over looking. Everything only goes together one way . I've emailed and called Hatsan but so far no reply.
Any ideas
