11. MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
11.1 Crank mechanism maintenance.
Check oil level though the oil level indicator (1, Fig. 8)
at least on a weekly basis.
If necessary add the missing oil through the oil plug
(1 Fig. 8). Check oil level when the pump is at room
temperature. When changing the oil (removing plug 3,
Fig. 8), the pump should be at its working temperature.
Change oil every 1000 working hours, oil capacity is 67.6
ounces.
In any case the oil should be changed at least once a
year, since oxidation deteriorates it.

Mineral or synthetic oils can be used but they must be
chosen according to the working environment
