40 MAINTENANCE
5.3.2 FILL
before adding or changing compressor oil, completely relieve the sump of pressure. Venting the sump tank
pressure relief valve will do this. oil is added at the fill plug located behind the curbside access door.
5.3.3 LEVEL
The proper oil level, when unit is shut down and oil has had time to settle, is across the center of the oil level
sight glass. For oil sump capacity, see the 2.1 Technical Data on page 8 .
WARNING! Compressor must be shut down and pressure completely relieved from system before checking fluid levels.
Open pressure relief valve to assure relief of system air pressure. Failure to comply with this warning may
cause property damage and serious bodily harm or death.
5.3.4 DRAIN
Always warm compressor thoroughly prior to changing the compressor oil. All fluid drains are located on the
curbside of the machine. When changing the oil, make sure system is completely drained to reduce potential
contamination.
WARNING! Do not attempt to drain water, remove the oil level fill plug, or break any connection in the air or oil system
until all the pressure has been relieved. Check by manually opening the sump pressure relief valve. Serious
injury or death may result if this warning is not followed.
5.4 WEATHER-ALL
™
COMPRESSOR LUBRICANT
All of Sullivan-Palatek’s portable air compressors are initially filled with Sullivan-Palatek’s WEAThER-All
HP
™
Compressor Fluid at factory. This custom-formulated, multi-viscosity 5W-20 lubricant is specifically
designed for long life under severe, demanding conditions. Maximum protection against scuffing and wear
to bearings and rotors, and wear-control for steel and brass parts when operating at maximum pressure
ratings results in extended compressor life. Extensive testing has shown this fluid exhibits excellent
resistance to foaming, oil oxidation and corrosion of yellow metals and limits rust of ferrous metals.
This synthesized hydrocarbon-based fluid provides quick water separation which enhances equipment
protection in wet and humid service environments. It offers an excellent viscosity index of 180 as well as low
pour point of -40°F.
Sullivan-Palatek strongly advises the continued use of WEaTHER-aLL to ensure optimal compressor
performance, and lower equipment maintenance costs.

*Service life is only a guideline for typical oil life if temperature is the only variable to be considered. Many
variables affect the oil life, i.e. environmental impact from various gases, dust and dirt, compressor short
cycling, etc.
Sullivan-Palatek recommends oil sampling as the best guide for your fluid change interval. Changing
fluid once a year my not be adequate or it can be excessive. For this reason an hourly service on lubricants
is merely a guide. Please consult your factory-trained servicing distributor for questions concerning your
lubricant life and Sullivan-Palatek’s lubricant sampling program. See
for additional information.
