INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
Lubrication
Before operating compressor,
ensure oil is filled to the center of the
sight gauge (see figure 5).
Using any other type of oil may
shorten pump life and damage valves.
RECOMMENDED OIL (2 OPTIONS)
Single viscosity SAE30 ISO100 nondetergent
compressor oil. Part number ST125303AV (0.5 qt) or
ST126701AV (4 qt).
10W30 synthetic oil such as Mobile 1 or CE0032 (1 qt).
OIL CAPACITY
Approximately 8.5 oz.
Remove cap from oil fill opening. Install breather (found
in parts bag with this manual). Check oil level. See
specification label on compressor pump for the proper
oil capacity and oil type. All lubricated compressor
pumps discharge some condensed water and oil with
the compressed air. Install appropriate water/oil removal
equipment and controls as necessary for the intended
application.
Do not use regular automotive oil. Additives in regular
motor oil can cause valve deposits and reduce pump life.
For maximum pump life, drain and replace oil after the
first fifty (50) hours of operation. Then perform oil changes
every three (3) months.
