Connect a regulator valve, an in-line
shut off valve and a 1/4” NPT air hose
(all sold separately) to the Quick
Coupler (84). The air hose must be
long enough to reach the work area
with enough extra length to allow free
movement while working.
Note:
An in-line shutoff ball valve is an
important safety device because it
controls the air supply even if the
air hose is ruptured. The shutoff
valve should be a ball valve
because it can be closed quickly.
3. Depending on the tool which you will
be using with this compressor, you
may need to incorporate additional
components, such as an in-line oiler,
a filter, or a dryer (all sold separately).
Consult your air tool’s manual for
needed accessories.
Checking the Oil
1. Check the oil level before operation.
Fill the Pump Crankcase (41) with
approximately 5.6 oz. of premium
quality SAE 30-weight, non-detergent
air compressor oil.
IMPORTANT:
Running the Air
Compressor with the incorrect
amount of oil will cause damage
to the equipment and void the
warranty. To prevent damage,
do not use with overfilled or low
oil. Slowly fill to full line, wait 2
minutes and fill back up to full line.
Compressor has small passages
that will fill slowly.

OIL LEVEL
The oil level should be at the center
of the “full” level on the oil level sight
glass, as shown in Figure 3. Add
oil as needed to maintain this level.
Do not let the oil level go below the
center dot (LOW as shown above)
and do not overfill the oil so that it is
above the center dot (OVERFILL as
shown above) on the sight glass.
3. To add oil:
a. Remove the Oil Plug (39).
b. Using a funnel to avoid spills, pour
enough oil into the Pump Crankcase
(41) to reach the “full” level in the Oil
Sight Glass (35).
c. Replace the Oil Plug.

detergent air compressor oil (sold
separately) is recommended for
