What happens here
The presenter demonstrates installing the air filter housing on top of the compressor pump. He then prepares to add oil to the compressor. He removes the oil cap from the compressor head. He uses a bottle of Ingersoll Rand 'All Season Select' synthetic lubricant, part of a 2-Year Air Compressor Warranty Kit, and carefully pours it into the fill port. He checks the oil level using the sight glass, aiming for it to be slightly above the halfway mark. He warns about breaking the seal on the oil bottle without letting fragments fall into the reservoir.
Goal: Prepare the compressor's pump with the air filter and proper lubrication.
