EVERY 3 MONTHS OR EVERY 300 HRS. OF OPERATION
Change the pump's lubricant
YEARLY
Inspect the tank for rust, pin holes, or other imperfections that could cause
it to become unsafe. Never weld or drill holes in the air tank.
LUBRICATION
Inspect and lubricate the tool when required. Only use light oil to lubricate
the tool. Other lubricants may not be suitable and could damage the tool or
cause a malfunction during use.
When not in use for an extended period, apply a thin coat of lubricant to the
steel parts to avoid rust. Remove the lubricant before using the tool again.
NOTICE! NEVER use a penetrating oil to lubricate the tool. Penetrating oil may
act as a solvent that can break down the grease and cause the tool to seize up.
NOTICE! Lubricant that appears milky may have mixed with condensate.
Replace the oil immediately to avoid equipment failure.
1.
Replace pump's break-in lubricant with SAE 40W oil.
2.
Before starting this compressor, check the lubricant level. Place the
compressor on a level surface. The oil level should register at the
halfway point on the sight glass (Fig. 6-2).
Ambient Temperature
30-104°F
Below 30°F
3.
Do not use petroleum-based automotive oils because specific types
have a tendency to foam and leave carbon deposits when used in
compressors.
4.
Change the oil.
a.
Shut off the engine and release the air
pressure.
b.
Unscrew the oil fill plug (Fig. 6-1) from the
compressor pump. Place a clean rag in the
oil fill plug opening to prevent dirt from
getting into the engine while draining.
c.
Use a funnel to collect the oil in a pan
under the oil drain plug (Fig. 6-3).
