LUBRICATION
All DuroFlow blowers are splash oil lubricated at both
the gear and drive ends. Oil is distributed around the
gear housing and drive end chamber by the gears and
specially designed oil flingers.
Approximate oil sump capacities are listed in
FIGURE 3--1 below.

RECOMMENDED LUBRICANT
The factory recommended lubricant is AEON PD
Synthetic Lubricant. AEON PD is formulated
especially for positive displacement blowers to provide
maximum protection at any temperature. One filling of
AEON PD will last a minimum of 4 times longer than a
premium mineral oil, depending on actual operating
conditions.
AEON PD contains a special additive package
designed for greater rust and corrosion protection.

Machines are shipped without oil in
the sumps. Do not operate before
adding lubricant.
LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS
For 30 series models, the oil fill port is located on the
top of the blower at the driveshaft end (see
FIGURE 1--2, page 5). The two oil sumps are con-
nected by a passageway through the housing.
Add oil until the level stabilizes at the center of the sight-
glass(es). Oil level at the sight glass must be estab-
lished when the blower is not operating.
Add fresh oil as required to maintain proper level.
On 70 series models (units with two oil sight glasses),
each end of the blower has a separate oil sump. Oil
must be added to each end of the blower through the
oil breather ports (see FIGURE 1--2, page 5).
