Refer to these charts for correct compressor fluid required.
Note that the selection of fluid is dependent on the design
operating pressure of the machine and the ambient
temperature expected to be encountered before the next
oil change.
Note: Fluids listed as "preferred" are required for
extended warranty.
Compressor oil carryover (oil consumption) may be
greater with the use of alternative fluids.

Engine Oil
If the unit has been operated for 1,000 hours, it should be
completely drained of oil. If the unit has been operated under
adverse conditions or under long shutdown periods, an earlier
change may be necessary as oil deteriorates with time as well
as by operating conditions. Complete replacement of the old oil
with clean oil every 500 to 1,000 hours, depending upon
operating conditions, not only is desirable, but is good insurance
against the accumulation of dirt, sludge or oxidized oil products.
Completely drain the receiver/separator and the piping. If the oil
is drained immediately after the unit has been run for some time,
most of the sediment will be in suspension and will drain more
readily.
Note: Shorter oil change intervals may be necessary if unit is
operated under adverse conditions.

WARNING
Do not, under any circumstances, open any drain cocks, remove
any plugs or the oil filler plug from
and cooling oil system without making sure the air receiver
system had been completely relieved of all air pressure.
CAUTION
Some oil mixtures are incompatible with each other and result in
the formation of varnishes, shellacs or lacquers, which may be
insoluble. Such deposits can cause serious trouble including
clogging of the filter. Where possible, try to avoid mixing oils of
the same type but different brands. A brand change is best
made at the time of a complete oil change. Refer to the Fluids
& Lubrication Table for oil recommendation.
