OIL RETURN LINE
This line originates at the bottom of the air/oil coalescer and flows through a 1/4" hose elbow,
located at the air end. On the DAR130 Rotary Screw Compressor, the elbow incorporates an oil
return line check valve which stops the flow of oil into the coalescer at shutdown.

filter according to local and state hazardous waste regulations.

(turning it clockwise until hand tight, plus one - third turn, viewing from bottom). Do not use
tools to tighten the filter.
