The reason they tell you there are two resevoirs for the blower is it is the only item with two. And for years they had 1. So, just a precaution. It is in the manual also

With the exchange rate that is on par with what I paid. Will find out on Monday when I talk to DG distributor up here what they charge. Of course there has to be a markup. Just hate paying the markup twice.

View attachment 70027 WillyView attachment 70028 P just got me a smoking deal on Esteam blower oil, the oil they use in Cleanco's. 1 dozen bottles at $1.00 each. Supplier was clearing them out.


Too bad he don got a TM to use it on.....:stir:

I always like those scores... We have a carpet manufacture rep who gave us a couple cases of terry cotton bonnets along with other cases of chemicals... I was about to buy some cotton bonnets and he shows up with them free...

Yes everyone including Jondon was in the higher 30 something range a while back.

At 20 something I still think it is ridiculously high for a Quart of oil, but when it comes to warranties you don't want to be that guy that didn't spend the 20 something dollars and looses a 3 thousand dollar blower.

In our tuthills we use an ISO 100 specs synthetic oil from amsoil with good results( no blower issues). 8 bucks a quart.

But the Gardner denvers we use the aeon pd xd oil.

The price of blower oil is such a non issue. Just buy it somewhere. It's not going to break you. lol...

I purchased a case of 30W non-detergent oil 30 years ago, and still have over half a case left.

I am on the second Roots #45 blower in 32 years, which equates to 30,000 hours on the 2 over-driven Roots blowers.

The current blower has 16,000+ hours on it.
