The Micro Oil Screw Air Compressor uses two rotors (screws) that rotate in opposite directions. As the screws turn, air is drawn in and compressed. The oil injected into the system lubricates and cools the compressor element while also sealing the gap between the screws.
[pdf] Replace screw air compressor lubricating oil by stopping the machine, draining old oil, cleaning pipelines, adding new oil, and replacing the oil filter. Check oil level after starting.
[pdf] Before making any repairs, be sure the unit is unplugged and tank has no air. To remove the line and load cords from the pressure switch, the pressure switch cover will need to be removed. Use your Phillips head screwdriver to loosen the screw located either on the top or on the side of the cover.
