LUBRICATION
The pump life depends on the quality and correct lubrication. Check the oil level on the sumps trough the
sight glasses and , if necessary, add the necessary quantity. Use a synthetic EP 220 oil. We prescribe:
ESSO SPARTAN SyNTETIC EP 220 or similar
When the ambient temperature is below 10 °C, run the pump for a few minuts with no pressure or vacuum.
This will allow the oil in the sumps to warm up.
The first oil change should be done after
200 operating hours, afterwhich time the oil must be changed
every 4.000 hours
. Check the oil in both sumps trough the sight glasses and if necessary, add oil to the cor-
rect amount.
