Key Points
For best performance and durability please follow the key points stated below:
•
Prior to initial start-up make sure to prime the supercharger oil system (see
page 9). Failure to do so may result in severe damage.
•
The oil used must be special Rotrex traction fluid.
•
The Rotrex supercharger can only be operated in one rotational direction.
Never turn the pulley in the incorrect direction by hand or otherwise. For your
unit, please find the correct rotational direction in the technical datasheet found
on rotrex.com
•
Do not try to change the compressor setup. The outlet direction of the
compressor house is pre-set by your dealer to fit the kit setup. Changing this
setup must only be done by authorized personnel. Contact your Rotrex dealer
if you encounter problems with the setup.
•
To avoid engine damage: make sure to run the appropriate fuel grade (octane).
If any sign of knocking is detected immediately discontinue running the engine
under boost conditions until the problem has been solved.
•
It is important to place the Rotrex supercharger as the highest component in
the system (s/c and oil system, see page 5) and with the flat surface of the
supercharger facing downwards /- 15º to horizontal.
•
Check the supercharger oil level after initial start-up. Always follow the correct
procedure for oil level check (see page 10)
•
To secure optimal oil conditions: Do not modify or change the oil circuit
supplied with your kit.
•
Always respect the oil and filter change interval and procedure (see page 11)
•
Always follow the correct pulley ring changing procedure (see page 12).
•
Always take care not to over tighten the supercharger bracket and banjo bolts
as this will strip the threads. Follow the torque specified in your kit installation
instructions or download the datasheet available at rotrex.com
