Filling with motor oil & Crankcase Breather
installation
WARNING: This air compressor is supplied without oil. DO NOT attempt to start the motor before
you have filled the motor with the appropriate type and amount of oil.
WARNING: Only use an oil type listed in the 'Specification' . High viscosity oil could create blockages
due to improper circulation during cold starts. A low viscosity oil will be unable to lubricate the
compressor sufficiently.
Note: Change the lubricating oil and clean the crankcase after the first 10 working hours.
Note: Always place the air compressor on a level surface before filling motor oil or checking oil
levels .
1. Position the air compressor on a secure, flat surface
2 . Remove the shipping plug from the Crankcase Breather Hole (18), and store in a safe place . The
Crankcase Breather Hole is now accessible
Note: This air compressor features and external Oil Level Monitor (19) (Image C) for easy monitoring
of oil levels .
3. Fill with suitable motor oil (Fig III) to the centre of the red 'FULL' mark on the Oil Level Monitor
4. Screw the Crankcase Breather (14) into the Crankcase Breather Hole
Fitting the quick connector
Note: This tool is supplied with two 3-in-1 air line quick connectors:
1. Apply PTFE tape (not included) to the screw threads of the Quick Connectors (23 & 24) (Image F).
This will help maintain an air-tight seal
Note: Apply PTFE tape tightly and in a clockwise direction, so it does not come off when the thread
is screwed into the tool.
2 . Remove the protective plug from the air outlets attached to the Pressure Regulator (4)
3. Using a spanner (not included), screw the Quick Connectors one at a time into the air outlets
4 . Connect to air line, pressurise carefully and carry out a leak check (e .g . by spraying small
amounts of soapy water on to the outside of the connectors)
• Air lines fitted with matching male quick connectors will now be a push-fit to the
tool
Check valves & fasteners
Note: Always check the operation of the Pressure Release Valve (22) before use; its function is
imperative to the safe use of this air compressor .
• Ensure all valves and fasteners are correctly tightened/seated for operation before each
use
