WARNING
!
High pressure air can cause severe injury or death from hot oil and flying parts.
Always relieve pressure before removing caps, plugs, covers or other parts from
pressurized air system.
• Open service valve at end of machine.
• Ensure pressure is relieved, with BOTH:
— Discharge air pressure gauge reads zero (0).
— No air discharging from service valve.
Remove plug near bottom of separator tank to drain compressor oil.
When adding oil, remove and replace (make tight) plug on top of separator tank.
The life of the oil separator element is dependent upon the operating environment (soot, dust,

proceed as follows:
• Ensure the tank pressure is zero.
• Unscrew separator element from manifold.
