5.1 Routine maintenance

WARNING!
Before carrying out any maintenance work, remove the PTO shaft (33) from the tractor and discharge the air from the
air tank (27) by opening the air exhaust tap (16) placed under it.
WARNING!
Before performing any maintenance, wear heat resistant gloves. The compressor head block (17), the copper hose (20)
and the pilot valve/unloader (13) get extremely hot.
Routine maintenance work can be performed by operators.

5.1.5 Adding air lubricating oil

• To relieve the air pressure up, turn the adjustment knob (3) anti-clockwise.
• Unscrew the lubricator oil cap (9) and fill with CAMPAGNOLA anti-condensation oil or SAE 10 oil using the supplied tip-
container.
