Is the compressor pre filled with oil?

They're usually not. I charged the system with pressurized oil/ICE can, followed by refrigerant.

I'm not quite sure because I don't remember very well but I think it wasn't.

When you get the compressor, spin the wheel and check the run-out. If it wobbles at all, reject it. If it does not wobble, install with a full freon charge and a full oil charge.

All you get is the compressor. Your question is not specific to a particular model and you may find better answers elsewhere.

It might be lightly oiled... We oiled it first thing and it sucked up a bunch.

No, its uses a special type of oil/water thing. I suggest you return them and buy new ones.

Not sure, however, after I discovered an oil leak on my machine I just had my local shop fix it. The cost was minimal and down time was short. I used it all day yesterday and it ran like a champ.

Yes...there is a pressure regulator with pressure gauge on the compressor. Plus a connection for getting the full pressure from tank. You will love this handy compressor... Buy it without worry! Blessings, Roland Jackson

I don't think it is. But that being said, it is an awesome compressor. Very well made.

Once it sets up right for the 1st time as long as it is upright your good to go, it is the oil that the compressor has in it that well move in to the coils that cool and discharge heat from it, if you turn it on it's side like anything else , it well need time for the oil to drain back down.

The oil is included with the blower, but is not in the engine. Oil has to be poured in after assembly.

Yes. It is part of the unit. You do not need to fill or re-fill the unit. The oil does not diminish but heats and radiates the heat.

No. The compressor is mounted to the bottom of the unit. The manufacturer's literature recommends keeping the unit horizontal and not moving it more than 15 degrees from horizontal. I believe running the unit in the horizontal position would allow the oil in the compressor to run out and cause damage to the compressor.

the oil that is shipped in with the air compressor is hydraulic oil,it's expensive $. it is also used in hydraulic jacks and the hyraulics in backhoes,not to be subsituted with transmission oil,or brake fluid. 01/31/2015

The filter comes pre-oiled. They recommend oiling the filter after 50,000 miles using their recharge kit.

No. It does not have a presurized oil system. There is no oil filter for this motor. I hope this helps.

there is a fill line in it . a full line and a minimum line. takes just under a gal of oil. when you get the book on it it tells you.
