MAHLE RTI TX200 - Manual (Page 12)

Page 11
VERY IMPORTANT
The TX200 requires that 2 ounces (60ml) of compressor oil be added after
every 25 hours of operation. This oil replaces the oil removed from the
compressor during normal recovery operation.
Due to this continual replenishment of oil, draining and refilling the compressor
with oil is not recommended under normal operating conditions.
Failure to add oil after every 25 hours of operation may cause a non-
warrantable compressor failure.
COMPRESSOR MAINTENANCE
The TX200 is shipped from the factory filled with the correct amount of compressor oil for
initial operation.
Initial start up does not require the addition of any oil.
ADD COMPRESSOR OIL...
Run the TX200 with the Inlet Hose Ball Valve closed until the Compressor On Light goes
Off. Press and hold the Deep Vacuum Switch for approximately 30 seconds to draw a
deeper vacuum. Leave the TX200 power on. Pour Compressor Oil into the measuring cup.
Insert the end of the Inlet Hose into the Oil and slightly open the Ball Valve. Oil will be
drawn into the TX200 due to the vacuum in the hose. Draw approximately 2 ounces (60 ml)
of Oil into the TX200 and close the valve.
CONDENSER MAINTENANCE
Clean the Condenser to maintain high efficiency performance of the TX200. Disconnect
power and remove the Cover. Blow compressed air through the cooling fins of the
Condenser to remove any debris.
Replace the Cover before applying power to the TX200.
