WARNING
Oil is toxic. If you swallow any oil, do not induce
vomiting, seek medical advice. Used engine oil contains
harmful contaminants which can cause skin cancer. Do
not handle used engine oil more than necessary. Always
use barrier cream or wear gloves to prevent skin
contact. Wash skin contaminated with oil thoroughly in
warm soapy water. Do not use petrol, diesel fuel or
paraffin to clean your skin.

WARNING
Hot oil can burn you. Make sure the compressor and oil
is cool before doing this job.
1 Park the machine on firm level ground. Engage the
parking brake and set the transmission to neutral. Stop
the engine and remove the starter key.
2 Remove the air receiver filler/level plug B.
3 Place a 23 litre (5 gallon) container under the receiver
and open the oil drain A.
4 Unscrew the filter canister E (if necessary use a strap
wrench to help remove the 'spin-on' element).
Remember that it will be full of oil.
5 Clean the filter head.
6 Smear the seal of the new filter with compressor oil.
Screw on the new filter canister - hand tight only.
7 Close the receiver oil drain.
8 Using recommended oil (see Compressor Approved
Oils ), fill the receiver through filler D until oil is just at
the maximum level on the dipstick C.
9 Replace and secure filler/level cap B.
10 Run the plant for ten minutes then shut down. ENSURE
ALL AIR PRESSURE HAS BEEN RELEASED FROM
THE RECEIVER. Wait three minutes for the lubricating
oil to settle, then top up again if necessary.
