Unpacking
SECTION 3: SET UP
Your air compressor left our warehouse in 
a carefully packed crate or box. If you dis-
cover the air compressor is damaged after 
you have signed for delivery, please imme-
diately call Customer Service at (570) 546-
9663 for advice. 
Save the container and packing materials 
for possible inspection by the carrier or its 
agent. Otherwise, filing a freight claim can 
be difficult.
Assembly
To assemble the air compressor:
1. Remove all packing materials and any
protective plastic bags, zip tie labels or 
tags from the compressor.
2. Be sure the air filter is attached to the
cylinder head as shown in
Figure 2.
Figure 3. Proper oil level.
3. Add compressor oil, or ISO 100/SAE
30W non-detergent oil, to the crank-
case. Remove the oil breather (inset 
in 
Figure 3) on top of the crankcase
and add oil into the hole. The oil level 
should be in the center of the sight 
glass as shown in 
Figure 3 (This step
does not apply to the Model G0468).

NOTICE
This machine should never be run 
without a full oil reservoir. The oil 
provides lubrication to the cylinder 
rings, which deliver the compressed 
air. Severe damage to the internal 
moving parts can occur if there is 
not adequate oil flow. Check the oil 
level frequently, and change the oil 
every 3 months.
