www.chpower.com
For pumps with an oil sight glass, oil
level can be monitored and maintained
as shown in Figure 3 .
BReAk-In
After installing compressor, start the
new pump and run without a load (0
PSI) for 30 minutes . With a pressure
regulator set to 40 PSI and no tool or
hose connected to the outlet, run the
compressor for another 30 minutes .
Maintenance
Release all pressure from the
system before attempting to
install, service, relocate or
perform any maintenance.
FOR eFFICIenT OPeRATIOn BeFORe
eACh USe:
1 . Check air filter .
2 . Check oil level . Low oil level will
result in rapid wear and short pump
life .

ALL MODELS
Ensure oil drain extension has been
installed (if included), then remove
the dipstick/breather and fill pump
with oil . Use SAE 30 Industrial Grade
compressor oil or full synthetic motor
oil like Mobil 1® 10W-30 . Do not use
regular automotive oil such as 10W-30 .
Additives in regular oil can cause valve
deposits and reduce pump life .
Proper oil fill is illustrated in Figure 2 .

MOISTURe In COMPReSSeD AIR
Moisture in compressed air will form into droplets as it comes from an
air compressor pump . When humidity is high or when a compressor is in
continuous use for an extended period of time, this moisture will collect in the
tank . When using a paint spray or sandblast gun, this water will be carried from
the tank through the hose, and out of the gun as droplets mixed with the spray
material .
IMPORTAnT: This condensation will cause water spots in a paint job, especially
when spraying other than water based paints . If sandblasting, it will cause the
sand to cake and clog the gun, rendering it ineffective .
A filter in the air line, located as near to the gun as possible, will help eliminate
this moisture .
