lUBriCaTion

Refer to the manual from the vacuum pump manufacturer 
for lubrication intervals and type of oil to use. Oilless claw 
vacuum pumps have gear boxes that must be maintained and 
the gearbox oil needs to be changed at specified intervals.

 

If the gas being pumped  

  through the vacuum system 

is known to be incompatible with petroleum based oils, the 
user must drain and refill the vacuum pumps with suitable oil 
before use. Failure to do so will void the warranty.
