Use the illustrations and instructions to check the
compressor oil level. Check the oil level daily
when the system is not in use and replenish the
oil as needed.
1 The oil level is too high when it is higher than
halfway up the sight glass. Drain the
appropriate amount of oil. Refer to:
the Compressor Oil" on page 75.
Note: If the oil level is too high, it is important

halfway up the sight glass. Add the appropriate

compressor for leaks and repair as
needed.
