Pre-Operation (continued)
INSTALLING FILL CAP/BREATHER
□
Compressor pump is filled with high quality oil at
the factory. Remove the plug (4) from the oil fill
port. Install the provided fill cap/breather (5) into
the oil fill port.
REFILLING THE COMPRESSOR PUMP WITH OIL
WARNING: Drain the tank to release all the tank air
pressure before removing the oil fill cap. Be sure the air
vent in the oil fill cap is free from debris. If the air vent
is blocked, pressure can build in the crankcase, causing
damage to the compressor and possible personal injury.
□
Remove the oil fill cap/breather (6) by turning it
counter-clockwise by hand. Fill the compressor
pump with air compressor oil, such as SAE-30 non-
detergent Semi Synthetic oil, at slow intervals until
the oil reaches the center of the red circle in the
sight glass (7). Use SAE-10 during extreme winter
conditions.
