Beyond 6000 working hours, compressor maintenance consists in alternating M-2 and M-3
every 2000 hours of running time. Performance of daily, weekly, monthly and annual ser-
vicing does not annul the need for maintenance in terms of operating hours.
5.2 Checking oil level
Fig. 5.2 Checking oil level
Check oil level on a daily basis. The oil level in the
compressor should be checked visually with the oil le-
vel glass (1) when the compressor has stopped. The
surface of the oil must always be visible in the sight
glass. If no oil is visible in the sight glass, the oil level
is low and needs to be topped up.
