cold Weather operation
Premium quality SAE 30-weight, non-
detergent, air compressor oil (sold
separately) is recommended for use
with this compressor. Start compressor
in heated area if outdoor temperatures
drop below 32° F. If this is not practical,
drain out the old pump oil and use SAE
10W Non-detergent Air Compressor Oil
in the pump crankcase instead whenever
the compressor's temperature will fall
below 40°. Do not use multi-viscosity
oil (such as 10W-30), they leave carbon
deposits on pump components and lead
to accelerated failure. Heavy operation
may require heavier viscosity oil.
4. If uncertain which oil to use for this
compressor, please call Harbor Freight
Tools customer service at 1-800-444-
3353 for assistance.
5. change the compressor oil after the
first hour of use to remove any debris.
WarnInG! To prevent serious injury from
burns: Do not add or change the oil while
the compressor is in operation. Allow the
compressor to cool before replacing oil.
