22.0 CHANGING THE OIL

CAUTION: THIS OPERATION MUST BE DONE TOGETHER WITH CHANGING THE OIL FILTER AND
AIR FILTER
BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE JOBS IT IS OBLIGATORY TO STOP THE MACHINE AND
DISCONNECT IT FROM THE POWER MAINS AND FROM THE COMPRESSED AIR DISTRIBUTION NETWORK.
Oil changing is an important operation for the compressor:
if the lubrication of the bearings is not efficient, the compressor life will be short.
The oil must be changed when the machine is still warm, that is immediately after stopping it.
The suggestions listed below should be scrupulously followed.
After draining the old oil out of the machine Ref. 1 Fig. 25.
- Fill the oil manifold Ref. 2 Fig. 25 up to the level mark
- Pour a drop of oil into the intake unit, as described in CHAP. 20.1
- Close all the protections (cover and front protection)
- Start the compressor.
- After about 1 minute, stop the machine, turning in "OFF" position the isolating switch Ref. 3 Fig. 25.
PROCEED AS DESCRIBED AT CHAPTER 15.3

THE OLD OIL MUST BE DISPOSED OF IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGULATIONS IN FORCE.
NOTE ON LUBRICANTS
When delivered the machine is filled with oil.
In normal conditions of use, these lubricants have proved to be able to withstand use for as many as 4.000 hours.
However, due to the external polluting agents that get into the compressor with the air that it takes in, it is advisable to
change the oil at more frequent intervals, as indicated on the routine maintenance chart.
If the compressor is being used at high temperatures (continuous operation above 90 °C) or in particularly severe
conditions, we advise changing the oil at shorter intervals than those recommended in the maintenance chart.
