* Wrap and store the clean filter elements in a clean, dry place.* Reset the service indicator.For more information on air cleaner element cleaning, refer to SEBF8062, Guideline for Reusable Parts-Cleaning and Inspection of Air Filters.Air Starter
Check Lubricator Oil Level
Never allow the lubricator bowl (if equipped) to become empty. The starting motor will be damaged by lack of proper lubrication.
The vanes of the starting motor are lubricated with a fine mist of oil from the motor lubricator. Check the level of oil in the lubricator bowl. If the bowl is less than half full, add lubricant. Use non detergent 10W engine oil for temperatures that are greater than 0°C (32°F). Use air tool oil for temperatures below 0°C (32°F).Oiler Feed Adjustment
If necessary, adjust the lubricator to release approximately two drops of fluid per 30 seconds into the starting motor air stream.
Air start valve (1), lubricator bowl (2), and adjustment knob (3). Be sure there is NO fuel supply to the engine.1. Turn the adjustment knob CW until the knob locks.2. Turn the adjustment knob CCW 1/4 turn.3. Crank the starter motor for ten seconds and observe the exhaust air from the starter motor mufflers. Look for oil mist. You should see a slight oil mist. The mist should be barely visible.If no mist is observed, or if the mist is excessive: rotate the adjustment knob in 1/16 turn increments to increase or decrease the oil mist. Repeat the starter cranking and observation until the mist is satisfactory. Drip rates should only be made under an average steady flow condition. Once established, the lubricator will automatically adjust the drip rate proportionally to variations in air flow.Collector Bowl
Some air starters may be equipped with a collector bowl. The bowl collects used oil after the oil has lubricated the vanes. The bowl also collects moisture condensation from the compressed air. When the collector bowl becomes half full, drain the used lubricant. Never fill the lubricator bowl with oil from the collector bowl- use clean lubricant.Air Tank
Drain Water and Sediment
For good life of the air starting motor, the air supply must be free of dirt and water. The air starter requires adequate air pressure in order to operate.Drain water from the air tank. Open the drain valve on the bottom of the air tank to drain the condensation and sediment. Close the valve.Check the air supply pressure. The air starting motor requires a minimum of 620 kPa (90 psi) of air pressure to operate properly. The maximum air pressure must not exceed 1034 kPa (150 psi). The normal air pressure will be 758 kPa (110 psi) to 965 kPa (140 psi).Fuel Tank
Drain Water and Sediment
Fuel tanks should contain some provision for draining water and sediment from the bottom of the tanks. Some fuel tanks use supply pipes that allow water and sediment to settle below the end of the fuel supply pipe.Some fuel tanks use supply lines that take fuel directly from the bottom of the tank. If equipped with this system,
