HWH DC compressor on older builds

'93 u300
Questions.
#1 Is DC the compressor on this model Just for the leveling?

#2 Most of the time while sitting with the level on, today for 4 days, I never see the air pressure below 100 psi. Is this due to the DC compressor ( which I never hear run)

#3 How would I go about checking/adjusingt the air compressor on this model???

Basically it is just to maintain level as initial leveling should be done with the engine running.

Could be, it can put out 125 psi, but not much volume.

There isn't much to check or adjust.  With the system on (red light showing)  have someone push a raise button while you watch and listen, it should come on.  When in auto level if a yellow light comes on the compressor should come on, if the system can not level by releasing air first.  After 30 min if level is not achieved the pump should stop and will not run again until a new leveling sequence is initiated.

Not sure if we have the same system as we have different models.  Barry Beam has a HWH manual posted on his website.
