1. Incorporate a filter, regulator, oiler
and shut off valve for best service, as
shown in the diagram above.
An in-
line shutoff valve is an important
safety device because it can imme-
diately shut-off air flow in case of
tool or hose failure.
Note:
If an automatic oiler system is not
used, add a few drops of Pneumatic
Tool Oil to the airline connection be-
fore operation. Add a few more drops
after each hour of continual use.
2. Attach an air hose to the compres-
sor’s air outlet. Connect the air hose
to the air inlet of the tool. Other com-
ponents, such as a connector and
quick coupler, will make operation
more efficient, but are not required.
WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS
INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL
OPERATION:
Do not install a female quick
coupler on the tool.
Such a coupler
contains an air valve that will allow
the air tool to retain pressure and
operate accidentally after the air
supply is disconnected.
Note:
Air flow, and therefore tool perfor-
mance, can be hindered by under-
sized air supply components.
3. The air hose must be long enough
to reach the work area with enough
extra length to allow free movement
while working.
4. Make sure the tool’s throttle or switch
is in the off position; refer to Opera-
tion section for description of con-
trols.
5. Close the in-line safety valve be-
tween the compressor and the tool.
6. Turn on the air compressor according
to the manufacturer’s directions and
allow it to build up pressure until it
cycles off.
7. Adjust the air compressor’s output
regulator so that the air output is
enough to properly power the tool,
but the output will not exceed the
tool’s maximum air pressure at any
time. Adjust the pressure gradually,
while checking the air output gauge
to set the right pressure range.
8. Inspect the air connections for leaks.
Repair any leaks found.
9. If the tool will not be used at this time,
detach it from the air supply, safely
discharge any residual air pressure,
and release the throttle and/or turn
the switch to its off position to prevent
accidental operation.
Note:
Residual air pressure should not be
present after the tool is disconnected
from the air supply. However, it is a
good safety measure to attempt to
