Oil Maintenance
Check oil periodically for clarity.
Replace oil if it appears milky or if
debris is present, or every 6 months,
or 100 hours of runtime, whichever
comes first. In harsh environments
such as high heat or high humidity,
you will need to replace the oil more
frequently.
WARNING:
Risk of personal injury hazard.
Allow Air Compressor to cool before
changing the oil.
To drain the oil from the Pump
Crankcase (41):
a. Place a container under the Drain
Plug (37).
b. Remove the Oil Plug (39) to allow air
flow into the Pump.
c. Remove the Drain Plug, allowing the
oil to drain into the container.
d. When the oil is completely drained
from the Pump, replace the Drain
Plug.
e. Fill the Pump with new compressor
oil to the FULL level on the Oil Sight
Glass (35).
f. Replace and tighten the Oil Plug.
g. Discard the old oil according to local,
state and federal regulations.
Draining Moisture from the Tank
The Drain Valve (71) is located under
the Tank (59). It must be accessed
daily to release all trapped air and
moisture from the Tank. This will
eliminate condensation which can
cause tank corrosion.
To empty the air and condensation:
a. Make sure the Power Lever of the
compressor is off.
b. Place a collection pan under the
Drain Valve.
c. Open the Drain Valve.
d. When all the pressure is released,
close the Drain Valve.
