CHANGING OIL
Change the oil as indicated in the table on cap 9.1 extending the number of hours before
replacement depends on the type of oil used but in no case can oil be used for more than one year
.
If the compressor is not used frequently (a couple of hours a day), we recommend changing the oil
every 6 months and periodically opening the oil drain ball valve to check for condensation residues.
When the oil drain ball valve is opened, oil starts flowing out of the screw assembly.
Always keep on all necessary equipment to collect the oil.
Open filling cap.
Open emptying cap.
Once emptied, close the emptying cap.
Then top up the oil until the right level is read on the window (see figure 12). Then tighten the oil
filling cap once more.
After having replaced the oil and oil filter, run the compressor for about 10 minutes, turn it off and
check the oil level. If necessary, top up.
