Check compressor oil level
Place the machine on level ground when checking the
oil level.
After checking and confirming that the residual
pressure in separator receiver tank is
0PSI
,
replenish the tank with compressor oil so that the oil
level is kept higher than the Lower limit of level
gauge plate. Be sure to check the surface of
compressor oil is in the range between upper limit
and lower limit when machine operating.
(See 5.5.6)
※
Supply of excessive oil can cause deterioration of oil
separation performance and the like.
When you fill the separator receiver tank with
compressor oil, stop the engine, and make sure that
the pressure gauge indicates
0PSI
and there is no
residual pressure in it, and then gradually loosen the
oil filler cap for refilling oil.
Should any residual pressure be left in the separator
receiver tank, hot compressed air and hot
compressor oil jetting out could cause burning or
serious injury to persons nearby.
3.3.4
Drain separator receiver tank
Gradually opening the drain valve [2] fitted under
the separator receiver tank [1] as shown in the fig,
drain the condensate.
Be careful not to fully open the drain valve.
Otherwise, much oil may be lost.
After draining the oil completely, close the drain
valve firmly.
Drain the condensate in container [3], and then
dispose of condensate according to the designated
regulations.
Touch the fluid and check its viscosity to determine
whether it is condensate or compressor oil, and when it
is difficult to distinguish between the two.
After stopping the engine, confirm that the pressure
gauge indicates
0PSI
and there is no residual
pressure in it, then open the drain valve gradually to
drain the compressor oil.
Note residual pressure in the receiver tank could
force both extremely hot compressed air and oil to jet
out and you may be scalded or seriously injured.
