Filling Crankcase Sump

Compressors are shipped or relocated with lubricants drained. It is recommended
that the compressor sump be filled with single viscosity SAE 40 oil. Before
proceeding with any startup checks, prime the lubricating systems for both frame
and cylinders.
1.
Check the oil level in the crankcase.
2.
Add oil, as required, to the correct level.
DO NOT OVERFILL SUMP! The crankshaft may hit an
excessively high oil level, which aerates and foams the oil.
Aerated oil affects compressor horsepower can cause pump

Pre lube Frame

If the compressor has an electric motor driven or unattended automatic startup
controls, a separate motor or pneumatic driven oil pump is required to pre lube the
compressor frame.
