Abstract:
The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for dosing a lubricant into compressed-air supplied to an air motor. According to the invention, the lubricant is stored in a lubricant storage space (17) from which the lubricant is led, along a lubricant line (19), to a doser (20). The doser (20) doses the lubricant into a dosing line and, therefrom, into a compressed-air line (12) extending to the air motor. The amount of lubricant contained in the storage space (17) is controlled by changing the volume of the storage space (17) by directing the pressure of the compressed-air line (12) to the lubricant storage space (17).
