CHAPTER 3: JUNIOR II COMPRESSOR
3.1 Lubrication
3.1.1 Oil Level Check
Check the oil level prior to putting compressor into operation each day
1. Remove dipstick and wipe dry.
2. Reinsert the dipstick ensuring that it is completely seated.
3. Withdraw the dipstick again and note the oil level.
The level should be between the minimum and maximum marks on the dipstick.See Figure 3-1.
3.1.2 Type of Oil
Due to the thermal load on the compressor, only high quality oil should be used. It is recommended that
you restrict oil to BAUER P/N OIL-0024 which has a proven record of success and is specified for this
compressor.
Figure 3-1 Oil Dipstick Markings
^ CAUTION ^
The oil level must not go down below the minimum mark but also must not exceed the maximum
mark as this will cause excessive lubrication of the compressor and result in the valves carbonizing.
^ NOTE ^
The part number for the oil delivered in all Junior II compressor units is BAUER part number:
OIL-0024
