CAUTION: Overfilling with oil will cause premature air
compressor failure. Do not overfill.
□ The oil level should be to the middle of the sight
glass (3).
□ If needed remove the oil fill plug (1) and slowly
add oil until it reaches the middle of the sight
glass.
NOTE: Use 30W compressor oil or a heavy duty SAE
30W, non-detergent, SF grade or better oil. Do not use
multi-weight automotive engine oils, as they will reduce
compressor life. Under extreme winter condition use SAE-10
weight oil.
CHANGING THE OIL
□ Remove the oil fill plug (1).
□ Remove the oil drain plug (2) and drain the oil
into a suitable container.
□ Replace the oil drain plug (2) and tighten
securely.
□ Slowly add compressor oil until it reaches the
middle of the sight glass (3).
NOTE: Crankcase oil capacity is approximately 10.6 fluid
ounces (313,5 ml).
NOTE: When filling the crankcase, the oil flows very slowly
into the pump. If the oil is added too quickly, it will overflow
and appear to be full.
□ Replace the oil fill plug (1) and tighten securely.

NOTICE: Risk of property damage. Use air compressor oil only.
Multi-weight automotive engine oils like 10W30 should not be use in
air compressors. They leave carbon deposits on critical components,
thus reducing performance and compressor life.
