Silent compressor help :(

[anderekel]

Ok, I got a silentaire 50-tc compresser. It should be great but I'm kinda afraid of screwin' it up while settin' it up, so anyone that has this compressor or just happens to know, should I put the oil in the cap that says oil, the white one on the top, or the little one on the side that the manual says the oil is supposed to go, I think, it's where the red cap is on the right side in the pic. I just don't wanna screw up my new compressor lol. Thanks :D

What the manual says! Although I don't think the other way would hurt! The other way maybe to check the oil and if you put it in that way you will have to wait until all the oil drains and clears the tube for checking! Just my thoughts!

this question was answeared on another forum ,either will do! the top pug is designed to make things easier and wasnt on the earlier models

the advise given by the supplier was to wipe any oil spillage from around the plug gasket area and not to overtighten and distort the gasket


the auther now knows this but it may be usefull info for others
