Multi-Viscosity motor oils, like 10W

30, should not be used in an air compressor. They leave carbon deposits on critical components, thus reducing performance and compressor life. Use air compressor oil only.

NOTE: Oil is included with some units. If oil is not included, use an oil specifically formulated for use in an air compressor, such as Porter-Cable PAS1 air compressor oil. Oil may be found at the store where the air compressor was purchased.

NOTE: Do not allow oil to be lower than 3/8" (6 threads) from the top at any time. When filling the crankcase, the oil flows very slowly into the pump. If the oil is added too quickly, it will overflow and appear to be full. Slowly fill crankcase to the top of the fill hole. NOTE: Crankcase oil capacity is approximately 16 fluid ounces (473.2 ml).
