Adjusting Air Line Lubricator Flow Rate

The air system oil lubricator should be adjusted so
approximately one drop of oil every ten machine
cycles is metered into the air system. The following
steps outline the procedure for adjusting the air system
oil lubricator:

1. To initially adjust flow rate, turn on air and cycle

press. Set knob to obtain desired flow rate. After
system reaches normal operating temperature,
check drip rate again and adjust as required.

2. To increase flow rate, use a screwdriver to turn

the adjusting screw no more than a 1/8 turn in the
counterclockwise direction. Likewise, turn
clockwise to decrease oil flow. Refer to item 1,
Figure 23.
