The quality and the temperature of the oil determine the oil change
interval.
The prescribed interval (see section
4.2
) is based on an oil temperature
of up to 100 °C and normal operating conditions.
When operating in high ambient temperatures, in very dusty or high
humidity conditions, it is recommended to change the oil more
frequently.
1. Run the compressor until warm. Close the outlet valve(s) (5) and
stop the compressor. Wait until the pressure is released through
the automatic blow-down valve. Unscrew the oil filler plug (2) one
turn. This uncovers a vent hole, which permits any pressure in the
system to escape.
2. Drain the oil by removing all relevant drain plugs. Drain plugs are
located at the air receiver, compressor element and compressor oil
cooler. Catch the oil in a drain pan. Screw out the filler plug to
speed up draining. Tighten the plugs after draining.
3. Remove the oil filter (3), e.g. by means of a special tool. Catch
the oil in a drain pan.
4. Clean the filter seat on the manifold, taking care that no dirt drops
into the system. Oil the gasket of the new filter element. Screw it
into place until the gasket contacts its seat, then tighten one half
turn only.
5. Fill the air receiver until the pointer of the oil level gauge (4)
registers in the upper extremity of the green range. Take care that
no dirt drops into the system. Reinstall and tighten the filler plug.
6. Run the unit at no load for a few minutes to circulate the oil and
to evacuate the air trapped in the oil system.
7. Stop the compressor. Let the oil settle for a few minutes. Check
that the pressure is released by opening an air outlet valve (5).
Screw out filler plug (2) and add oil until the pointer of the oil level
gauge (4) again registers in the upper extremity of the green range.
Reinstall and tighten the filler plug.
Before removing oil filler plug (2), ensure that the
pressure is released by opening an air outlet valve (3).

Never add more oil. Overfilling results in oil
consumption.
