ACCESSORIES

To Add Oil To Pump

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THIS AIR

COMPRESSOR WITHOUT FIRST ADDING OIL TO THE

CRANKCASE. Serious damage can result from even limited operation

unless filled with oil and broken in correctly. Make sure to closely follow

initial start-up procedures.

COMPRESSORS ARE SHIPPED WITHOUT OIL. A small

amount of oil may be present in the pump upon receipt

of the air compressor. This is due to plant testing and does not mean the

pump contains oil.

Multi-Viscosity motor oils, like 10W 30, should not be

used in an air compressor. They leave carbon deposits

on critical components, thus reducing performance and compressor life.

Use air compressor oil only.

NOTE: Use an air compressor oil such as SAE-30 (API CG/CD heavy duty

motor oil). Under extreme winter conditions use SAE-10 weight oil.

1. Place unit on a level surface.

Drain tank to release

air pressure before

removing the dipstick.

Make sure air vent (B)

in dipstick is free from

debris. If air vent is blocked pressure

can build in crankcase causing damage

to air compressor and possible personal

injury.

2. Remove dipstick (A) and slowly fill

crankcase with oil. Crankcase capacity

is 6 fluid ounces (177.4 ml). Oil level

should be at the + (full) mark on the

dipstick.

NOTE: If the oil is added too quickly, it will overflow and appear to be full.

3. Replace dipstick.
