LUBRICATION

Inspect and lubricate the device when required.
CHECKING THE OIL
Prior to daily operation, check the oil level in your compressor
pump. Check the sight glass to ensure the level is between A and
B. The optimal level is 2/3 full on the sight gauge. Do not operate
the pump with an inadequate or excessive amount of oil.
NOTE: Use synthetic, non-detergent air compressor oil.
CHANGING THE OIL
1. Remove the oil plug (F) and drain the oil until it slows to a drip, then close (Fig. 6).
2. Add oil to the pump by first removing the breather plug (G).
3. Add oil (approx. 40 oz/1.18 litres) until the level viewed through the sight glass is between
FULL (A) and ADD (B).
4. Replace the breather plug.
BELT-TIGHTENING DEVICE
Drive belt tensioning and pulley alignment are done at the same
time. They are discussed separately for clarity.
Proper belt tension and pulley alignment must be maintained for
maximum drive efficiency and belt life. The correct tension exists
if a deflection (A) of 1/2 in. (13 mm) occurs by placing 10 lb
(4.6 kg) of force (B) midway between the motor pulley and the
pump flywheel (Fig. 7). This deflection can be adjusted by the
following procedure. The pulley should be carefully aligned with
the flywheel and all set screws should be kept tight.
1. Remove the belt guard.
2. Loosen the motor mounting bolts.
3. Shift the motor to the point where the correct deflection exists.
4. Retighten the motor mounting bolts.
5. Check to ensure that the tension remained correct.
6. Reinstall the belt guard. All moving parts must be guarded.
