Lube Oil Strainer, Filter & Filter Installation Instructions
Lube Oil Strainer
The strainer is located on the auxiliary end of the crankcase below the oil level. The strainer
basket should be taken out and washed in an appropriate solvent whenever the lubricating
oil is changed.
Lube Oil Filter
Ariel recommends replacing filter element when differential pressure reaches approximately
10 PSI (70 kPa) across the filter at normal operating temperatures or at six month intervals.
Filter Element Installation Instructions
1. Clean filter base surface, and be certain old gasket is removed.
2. Fill filter with clean oil using the same grade oil as in the crankcase.
3. Apply clean lube oil to the filter gasket.
4. After the filter gasket contacts the base, tighten one turn.
5. After starting the unit, check for leaks, and retighten if necessary.
6. Do not run unit with a damaged filter can. It can fracture or leak. Replace only
with an Ariel approved filter.
NOTE: FAILURE TO FILL FILTER VESSEL WITH OIL, PRIOR TO STARTING, CAN
CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE COMPRESSOR.
