2.4 Check oil level in oil/air separator tank
The air compressor system holds 5 litres of oil which
includes enough to fill the oil filter. The filter holds 0.3 litres
of oil. The compressor holds about 0.5 litres of oil. 4 litres of
oil is required for servicing.
The lower front panel (and hose lengths), have been
designed to allow the tank to be accessed easily for
servicing. If the front panel/tank is removed for oil change,
ensure the tank is oriented correctly to enable correct oil
levels to be read.
2.4.1 Unscrew the oil level dipstick and remove it. Take care not to
damage the O-ring on the dipstick.
2.4.2 Wipe the oil level dipstick with a clean cloth or paper towel.
2.4.3 Insert the oil level dipstick and screw it all the way down, then
unscrew and remove it.
