CRANKCASE LUBRICATION

 

Change the crankcase oil every 1,000 hours or 180 
days, whichever is shorter.  Under severe dusty or 
sandy operating conditions, the oil should be changed 
every 500 hours or every 90 days 

A high quality non-detergent oil is recommended.  

The 

oil used should be of high quality such as API 
grade SF, SG, SH or similar. 

API grade SA, SB, SC or similar oils should never 
be used.  Recycled oils should never be used.

 

Consult factory for special lubricating requirements.

Before changing the oil, bring the compressor up to 
normal operating temperature.  Remove the crankcase 
drain plug and drain the oil into an adequately sized 
container.  Remove the oil pickup screen and clean in a 
suitable solvent.  When reinstalling the pickup screen, 
inspect the metal gasket and the O-ring for damage, 
replacing as necessary.  If equipped, replace the 
external oil filter.  See Figure 6. 
 
Refill the crankcase via the dipstick opening.  

DO NOT 

OVERFILL THE CRANKCASE! 
 

The oil pump on these models will operate in either 
direction of crankshaft rotation. 
 

SETTING THE OIL PRESSURE

  (see Figure 6) 

1. The oil pressure should be about 25 psig 

(1.73 Bar). 

2.  Loosen the locknut. 

3. Increase the pressure setting by turning the 

adjusting screw inward, CLOCKWISE. 

  Decrease the pressure setting by turning the 

adjusting screw outward, COUNTER-CLOCKWISE. 

4.  Retighten the locknut.
