22.0 REPLACING OIL
BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE JOBS IT IS MANDATORY STOP THE MACHINE AND DISCONNECT IT
FROM THE POWER MAINS AND FROM THE COMPRESSED AIR DISTRIBUTION NETWORK.
Oil changing is an important operation for the compressor:
if the lubrication of the bearings is not efficient, the compressor life time will be reduced..
The oil must be changed when the machine is still warm, that is immediately after stopping it.
The suggestions listed below should be scrupulously followed.
After draining the old oil out of the machine Ref. 2 Fig. 26.
- Completely fill the oil collector Ref. 1 Fig. 26.
- Pour a little oil into the suction unit.
- Start the compressor.
- After about 1 minute switch off the machine by pressing "STOP" (Ref. 3 Fig. 26) after idle time running the machine will switch off.
PROCEED AS DESCRIBED AT POINT CHAPTER 15.4

THE OLD OIL MUST BE DISPOSED OF IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGULATIONS IN FORCE.
NOTE ON LUBRICANTS
When delivered the machine is filled with oil.
Extending the use of the oil over the scheduled replacement interval result in the risk of fire. If the compressor is used at high
temperatures or in particularly severe conditions, we advise shorter oil replacement interval.
DO NOT TOP UP WITH DIFFERENT OILS
23.0 REPLACE THE DE-OILER FILTER AND THE OIL FILTER
BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE THE MACHINE MUST BE STOPPED, CUT OFF THE MACHINE FROM THE
ELECTRICAL MAINS AND FROM THE COMPRESSED AIR DISTRIBUTION CIRCUIT, CHECK THAT THE MACHINE IS NOT
UNDER PRESSURE.
Before proceeding with the replacement of the de-oiler filter or the oil filter check that there is no pressure in the machine: check the
pressure gauge Ref. 1 Fig. 27.
- Lubricate the filter seals with a little oil before fitting.
- Tightening must be done by hand.
