Possible Causes
Possible Solutions
Decreased output. 1. Not enough air pressure and/
or air flow.
2. Obstructed trigger.
3. Incorrect lubrication or not
enough lubrication.
4. Blocked air inlet screen (if
equipped).
5. Air leaking from loose
housing.
6. Mechanism contaminated.
1. Vane wear or damage.
1. Check for loose connections and make
sure that air supply is providing enough air
