. AIR LINE KIT INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
①
Oil Volume
Check the oil volume at least once a week. If the oil level
is low, fill to the upper limit. If the oil level is above the
upper limit, remove the excess oil. Take care not to over
or under fill the oil reservoir as this can cause the oil
delivery rate to vary (Fig.
8).
②
Moisture in the Air Filter
Drain moisture from the Air Filter by pushing the Drain
Valve sideways (Fig.
9).
③
Adjusting the Oil Drip Rate
Run the motor / spindle at the specified air pressure and
adjust the oil drip rate to the recommended rate by turning
the Oil Drip Rate Adjusting Screw. (About
30 to 40 drops /
min) Turn the screw counterclockwise to increase the rate
and clockwise to decrease. (Fig.
10)
When using non-NAKANISHI lubricator, adjust the oil drip
rate to about
1 - 3 drops / min.

Remove Oil and Moisture Regularly
Remove and replace the oil in the Reservoir once a
month, to ensure a pure oil source for the motor. Moisture
may collect and mix with the oil in the Reservoir and
damage the motor. Open the Drain Valve at the bottom of
the reservoir by turning it counterclockwise (Fig.
11).
