4.2.1 Engine oil


Viscosity of engine oil greatly affects startability, performance, oil consumption of the engine, as well
as wear of the moving parts.

Choose appropriate oil based upon the table below according to the outside air temperature.

Even continuous oil replenishment cannot improve its deteriorated condition. Be sure to change the oil
completely at every scheduled interval.

Do not mix it with other brand oil, or it will cause poor performance and shorten the life of the compres-
sor oil. (But fresh compressor oil could accept a mixture of small amount of different brands.)

Running the unit with old and deteriorated compressor oil will cause damage to bearings, or serious ac-
cident like ignition in a separator receiver tank. Be sure to change the oil completely at every scheduled
interval.

Follow the designated regulations to dispose of compressor oil.
