General
The normal routine of running the machine is very simple. If it is carried out strictly at all times, many years of
trouble free service can be expected.
We emphasise two points of paramount importance-
1. Filtration of incoming air of gas
2. Lubrication
If possible provide a logbook so that the operator can enter daily readings. After several months a record will show
whether the machine is performing as it did originally. If readings are to be taken the following are all that is
required. Inlet and outlet air temperatures, suction conditions and oil drip rate.
A typical layout for the log book is shown in the table below.
