This supercharger has been factory pre‑filled with special

Lysholm synthetic lubricant. Oil does not need to be added

to a brand new unit; however a fluid level check should be

performed.

Prior to operating the supercharger on the vehicle and after

installation onto the vehicle:

Check the supercharger fluid level via the factory installed

dipstick located on the top of the supercharger case. Do not

operate the supercharger without it.

Fluid level checking procedure:

1. Ensure that the fiber sealing washer is located on the

dipstick base.

2. Thread the clean dipstick into the unit until it seats.

3. Once the dipstick has seated, remove the dipstick

from the unit. Fluid should register in the cross-

hatched area on the dipstick.

4. DO NOT OVERFILL!!! Drain excess fluid from the

unit if it is above the maximum level on the dipstick.

Check the supercharger fluid level using the dipstick (or sight

glass if equipped) at least every 5,000 miles.

The supercharger fluid must then be changed at least every

30,000 miles.

i. Drain the fluid, re‑fill the unit only with 5.4 oz. (6.7oz for

3.3L) of Lysholm supplied lubricating fluid.

ii. Confirm proper oil level using the dipstick. DO NOT

OVERFILL!!

WARNING:

Use of any other fluid other than the special Lysholm lubricant will

void the warranty and may cause component failure.
