• Before installing, shaft rotation direction must be determined.
• Install the oiler on the side of the equipment facing the direction of shaft rotation to prevent misfeeding of the oiler.
• Loosen set screw and remove reservoir.
• Tighten supplied plug in the side or bottom fluid port.
• Apply pipe thread sealant to both ends of an NPT male nipple (not included) and tighten it in the remaining fluid port & bearing housing.
• The closed system should be parallel to the bearing housing in a vertical position.
• Apply pipe thread sealant to a male connector (not included) and tighten it into the vent port. Repeat the same with the second male connector.
• Connect a section of copper or nylon tubing to the NPT connectors to serve as the vent line.
• With the Allen key, adjust the collar to the desired fluid level.
• Fill the bearing chamber through the main body until it reaches just below the optimum fluid level visible in the sight gauge.
• Use the reservoir to feed oil to the proper level.
• Place thumb over reservoir spout, invert and insert the spout into the main body until upper casting bottoms out on the collar.
• Secure set screws on upper casting and start up the machine.
