Oil Capacity
Do not use regular automotive oil. Additives in
regular motor oil can cause valve deposits and
reduce pump life.
For maximum pump life, drain and replace oil
after the first 50 hours of run time and then follow
the regular maintenance schedule outlined later
in the manual.
This pump has an oil sight glass as shown
in Figure 11. Oil level can be monitored and
maintained as shown in Figure 11.
PIPING

Risk of Personal Injury. Never use plastic
(PVC) pipe for compressed air. Serious injury
or death could result.
Any tube, pipe, or hose used must have a pressure rating higher then 200 PSI. Minimum
recommended pipe size is 3/4 in. Larger diameter pipe is always better.
