WARNING

COMPRESSOR LUBRICATION

Do not operate without lubricant or with inadequate lubricant.
Ingersoll Rand is not responsible for compressor failure caused
by inadequate lubrication.
RECOMMENDED LUBRICANT
Ingersoll Rand recommends All Season Select® synthetic lubricant
from startup.
B
ALTERNATE LUBRICANTS.
You may use XL-300 or a comparable petroleum-based lubricant that
is premium quality, does not contain detergents, contains only anti-
rust, anti-oxidation, and anti-foam agents as additives, has a flashpoint
of 440°F (227°C) or higher, and has an auto-ignition point of 650°F
(343°C) or higher
See the petroleum lubricant viscosity table below. The table is
intended as a general guide only. Heavy duty operating conditions
require heavier viscosities. Refer specific operating conditions to
Ingersoll Rand for recommendations.
