OIL AND FILTER CHANGE
Used Oil is a polluting material and should be disposed of
in compliance with local regulations.
BURN HAZARD!
Significant heat is generated during operation. Components and oil may be hot. Allow to cool a minimum of 1 hour after last use
before servicing to avoid burns.
INJURY HAZARD!
Before performing any service, turn Power Switch to the “OFF” position (FIG 1). Shut off breaker or disconnect power supply
and release pressure from Tank until Gauge indicates 0 PSI.
INJURY HAZARD!
The Oil Tank may be under pressure. Opening the Oil Drain Valve or removing the Fill Plug under pressure can cause oil to be blown out at
high velocity. Move Power Switch to the “OFF” position, release pressure from the Tank until Tank Pressure Gauge indicates 0 PSI, and
disconnect Compressor from power supply before opening the Drain Valve or removing Fill Plug. Always wear appropriate eye protection.
• Move Power Switch to the “OFF” position.
• Release pressure from Tank until Tank Pressure Gauge indicates 0 PSI.
• Disconnect Compressor from power supply.
• Remove the drain hose from the Moisture Drain System Barbed Fitting and
securely position it above a suitable drain pan, then slowly open the Drain
Valve.
TIP:
It is advisable to place spacers under the opposite side Casters
lifting the Compressor slightly on that end to force the maximum amount of
oil to drain from the Reservoir into a suitable container
(FIG 14)
.

• After the oil has drained, close the Oil Drain Valve completely then re-connect the drain hose to the Moisture Drain System Barbed Fitting.
• Remove the Oil Fill Plug/Dipstick from the upper front area of the Oil Reservoir
(FIG 2)
.
NOTE:
Do not lose the Oil Fill Plug/Dipstick seal.
• Add #31718 Eastwood Synthetic Scroll Compressor Oil to the fill port of the Oil Reservoir using a suitable funnel
(FIG 5)
.
• With the Compressor sitting on a level surface, check oil level by observing the level on the Dipstick. The oil level is acceptable when it is between the
marks
(FIG 3)
. If the oil level is below the bottom mark, oil must be added.
• Check the condition of the seal then replace Oil Fill Plug/Dipstick and tighten securely.
• Remove Oil Filter (Black Canister) from the Filter Manifold.
• Remove Moisture Separator (White Canister) from the Filter Manifold.
• Clean all gasket sealing surfaces thoroughly.
The Oil in this unit is under high pressure and filters MUST be tight to prevent leakage. To tighten: Snug down by hand then tighten
3/4 to 1 full turn after initial seal contact.
