Hello!

Hmmm...
That compressor looks the same as mine...
And I can, from your picture, see the oil pipe that goes to second stage!
That plastic hoose that goes from third stage to secondstage is the oil pipe
for the second stage!!?!
And that compressor should have 50 bar oil pressure.
Have you measured oil pressure at the spare port of the oil pressure regulator on third stage?

VBK, When you are ready for filters, Go to my web site <sheldensportinggoods.com>

The filters shown have been used by several divers for nitrox and have good repackable cartridges at very reasonable cost.

Hello!

I think you decrease that to 50bar by removing some shims or use an extra gasket.
The manual, is it paper or electrical format?

The oil pressure regulators that I've seen are adjusted by turning a screw. Remove the acorn nut and use a flat blade screwdriver to adjust. Small movement counter clockwise to lower press.

Hello!

This older modell does not have that feature (at least not mine)...
The oil pressure is adjusted by shims (is that a correct english word? ).

Here you can see almost all parts in my compressor (also before and after a small make over)...

Yeah, I see that regulator, no adjustment screw. Shims are good if they can be found or made.

In this case I think it is quite easy, due to oil pressure is to high, solution is to remove shims.
