PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION! Always make sure the Gasoline Engine’s Power Switch is in its
“OFF” position prior to performing any service, maintenance, or cleaning of the
Compressor or Engine.
To Add Engine Oil:
1. IMPORTANT! Prior to first using the Compressor, the Engine MUST be filled
with a high quality 10W-30 grade engine oil.
(See Engine manufacturer’s manual for complete instructions.)
2. To do so, unscrew and remove the Engine Oil Dipstick. Pour approximately 3/4
quart of engine oil into the Dipstick Hole. Do not overfill.
3. Clean the Oil Dipstick. Then screw the Dipstick fully back into the Dipstick Hole.
Unscrew and remove the Oil Dipstick again, and observe the level of engine oil
on the Dipstick. The oil level should appear between the “MINIMUM” and “MAXI-
MUM” indicator marks on the Oil Dipstick.
4. If necessary, continue adding engine oil, while rechecking the Oil Dipstick, until
the oil level reaches the “MAXIMUM” indicator on the Oil Dipstick.
Do not exceed the “MAXIMUM” indicator mark on the Oil Dipstick.
5. When finished adding engine oil, carefully screw the Oil Dipstick back into the
Dipstick Hole.
