New (old) compressor help please! FIAC

[revilorellim]

Hi,

I have just bought a second hand compressor, its a FIAC Apollo 24 2hp direct drive. I wanted to know if anyone has a copy of the user manual kicking about?

I have emailed FIAC in Italy (no response yet), and called FIAC UK who don't have it...I sort of just want to know how to maintain it properly.

Any help greatly appreciated!

What is it you need to know?

Mostly about the oil and any filter cleaning (if any) it lists 10w40 oil on the housing, but there is just a neon green filler cap on the top (like a honey dipper) with no level indicator or window? the only thing I can see in the filer hole, when the cap is off is a plastic sort of basket down in the hole? Do you fill to the bottom of that as 'full'; the oil level is currently below that..
