Hey, guys! Question for you experts regarding the Benjamin Traveler compressor. Just got it today from Pyramid Air, read the manual, hooked it up to the Marauder, and just before it was going to shut down on the pressure setting, it shut down with an E2 code. I cannot find their error codes anywhere, PA doesn't have a clue, and Crosman is closed of course!

Anyone know where I can find those codes? I've looked all over the place and can't find them at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated on this. Thanks in advance!

I had it set for around 2900 psi to give me a little room in case it didn't shut down automatically. Thanks a lot for your help on this, I looked all over Crosman's site and couldn't find it. Where was it on there? That's odd that it was a voltage shutdown, as I had nothing else plugged into the socket with it, and I don't know that I've had any problems like that in the 9 years we've been in this house! Thanks again.

I kept getting errors on mine (dont temember the code). I found that the voltage flip switch was actually set to 220. Once flipped to 110, no further problems. The switch is in a little cutout on the case. You'll see the marking and csn very easily just flip the switch. Only about a .25 inch or so in.

The voltage switch is on the back ...you will need a small screwdriver or pick to change the voltage ...

That's exactly what it was! The pic was great, and the only other thing I needed was a good flashlight to see that far into the case through that little hole. It was on 220v, and my little flathead screwdriver changed it over no problem.

Thanks so much everyone in helping me figure this out tonight. Now when my female 1/8" foster fitting comes tomorrow I'll be able to charge my new Air Arms XS510 up and get it sighted in. Can't wait! We're going down to the lake for the holiday weekend, and there are numerous big groundhogs down there to knock off.

Just an update for those of you that were so helpful yesterday. I got the fitting in for the Air Arms attachment today and was able to fill up the rifle with absolutely no problems. The Traveler worked like a charm today being on 115v...I just hope that continues to be the case, as there seems to be a lot of problems with all of the smaller compressors. Hopefully this one will last a while! Fingers crossed!

Another question for those of you that own this compressor...how often do you clean/change the air/water filter on your compressor?

The depends on how humid it is. I check my media after each session and I do not store the compressor with the filter inside the canister. I remove the foam (both the skinny and the fat sides) and squeeze them between my fingers to check if there is any moisture caught.

I have gotten as much as a teaspoon of water out of the foam. Recently I drained my SCBA tank to see if there was water inside, after 6 months of use with the traveller. No moisture in the tank. All good, but I still added an external gold filter to further capture moisture.

Interesting. I’m up in Colorado (very dry), and have never had any moisture in mine! (knock wood)
