For reasons of water hygiene, lubricating oils used in water-well
drilling should be non-toxic.
The temperature limits given above refer to the temperature of the
oil in the tank, i.e. the ambient temperature. In cases where the
hammer is powered by warm compressed air at high operating
pressures, e.g. when connected to a nearby portable compressor,
the temperature of the operating air must be taken into considera
-
tion. In such cases it may be necessary to choose a thicker oil than
what is recommended in the table.
