Lubricating oil inspection
Only lubricating oils pursuant to the lubricants specifications on
page 13 are approved for the VacuStar W series.
The manual prelubrication of the VacuStar W is always required
during the initial operation.
Ölstand am Schauglas kontrollieren und falls erforderlich bis ca.
3 cm unter Gewinde des Einfüllverschlusses mit Öl füllen. The oil
level may not drop below the bottom mark on the oil inspection
glass.
Procedure to be followed for manual prelubrication:
Remove the crank handle from the retaining bracket and push it
through the oil filler neck onto the oil pump shaft. Push the
crank handle down until the drive dog engages and now
prelubricate for approximately 40 full turns.
Afterwards, clip crank handle back into the retaining bracket
and screw locking screw back on again.
