COMPRESSORS
ARE SHIPPED WITHOUT OIL. A small
amount of oil may be present in the pump upon receipt
of the air compressor, This is due to plant testing and does not mean the
pump contains oil.
Multi-Viscosity
motor oils, like lOW 30, should not be
used in an air compressor. They leave carbon deposits
on critical components,
thus reducing performance
and compressor life.
Use air compressor
oil only.
NOTE: Use an air compressor oil such as SAE-30 (API CG/CD heavy duty
motor oil). Under extreme winter conditions use SAE-10 weight oil.

injury.
