Yes, I have an Omega Aircharger,and th GX CS-4 and yes they squeak a little bit while filling. They are of similar in design and I believe from the same company.It’s nothing to worry about..Grassguy

GX CS4 compressor
- Thread starter huntr
- Start date
Has anyone been able to buy parts for the CS4? I need the black rubber diaphragm that sits at the bottom of the grease chamber. Mine has become wrinkled and torn. THe compressor is very slow to pump up and I can see that it is leaking from that area. I don't see CS4 parts listed anywhere.

I haven’t seen parts advertised (yet, I hope). How many hours on your compressor?

Just under 6 hours. If that rubber disc or diaphragm, not sure what it is called, is not available, I have a very large orange
paper weight. The fact that there is no parts availability for this product does not bode well for the company.

My new CS4’s gauge works for displaying the pressure, but won’t shut off the unit. I contacted their support email & had a reply in one or two days, and was told they were shipping a new gauge. Since it’s under warranty, try their email, or I’ve read they’re responsive on FB too (I don’t have a FB account).

Why don’t you contact Raptor pneumatics. They have parts for the Omega Aircharger I think as well as for the Omega Trail Charger. They have similar if not identical design.

Jason Song from GX had the following to say:" Hello The black sealing film does not affect the work, it is used for refueling, just asked the engineer, he said to remove the black film, wipe off the grease inside, don’t install the refueling screw, empty the drain, he suspects You added too much grease , which caused the primary valve plate to be stuck, and the gas that went in also came out. The slow pressure rise is not compatible with this diaphragm."
Too much grease wasn't the problem. I don't have a clue what he is saying about not affecting the work?

I'm guessing he's trying to say the black diaphragm doesn't seal the air system, so the "work" of compressing air is not affected. Then again, he says, "The slow pressure rise is not compatible with this diaphragm," which implies it does seal the low pressure part of the system. He says to remove the diaphragm - how easy does that seem? I'm concerned with yours wrinkling & tearing after only adding grease one time.

I cleaned up the diaphragm and placed it back where it was. The edges are torn a little and has left small pieces of rubber behind. I was able to get them out. The CS4 seems to be working as it should. I don't know how long that will last. It amazes me that I can't order a few of those to have around. This is undoubtedly the major problem dealing with this Chinese stuff without a reliable dealer to help out if needed. We will have to hope nothing breaks that isn't in the kit they supplied. I fear we won't see decent parts support for awhile if ever.

It just lays at the bottom of the cylinder that the grease pot screws into. My guess is that someone over tightened the grease pot which then started to shred the rubber diaphragm. The diaphragm has a very small hole which matches the hole that the piston cover has in it. I believe the diaphragm acts as a limiter for the grease as you turn the top of the grease pot. I hesitate to leave it out, it was put in there for some reason.

My compressor arrived the other day but I'm having issues with connecting it to my copper colored coalescing filter.
I unscrewed the foster fitting on the compressor and tried to fit the fitting that comes with the coalescing filter. The threads do seem compatible (they screw right into my Yong Heng), but there is no way to get a wrench or socket in there to tighten it down. I could take the cover off, but I doubt it will go back on with the coalescing hose on there.
Any ideas?

My understanding from a fellow at the manufacturer is that parts can be obtained by emailing them
[email protected]
He and I had been emailing back & forth about an imaginary problem with my CS-4

Thanks for the link, I've never seen sockets like that before. They are kind of pricey though, so I wondering if it could be cheaper to buy a line that has a foster fitting on one end and the correct fitting on the other end, to connect to the filter - I just have no idea what that screw on fitting is called that connects to the filter.
Here's the filter I'm referring to.

Maybe one of these sets?: https://www.harborfreight.com/38-in-metric-crowfoot-flare-nut-wrench-set-7-piece-68999.html Oops, never mind….took a better look at your pics and see the connection is below the cover and these won’t do itThanks for the link, I've never seen sockets like that before.
