Air Supply Requirements
1. Supply tool with 90 psig (6.2 bar) of clean, dry air. Higher pressure reduces tool
life.
2. Connect tool to air line using pipe, hose, and fitting sizes shown in the diagram
on page 12.
Lubrication
Use an air line lubricator with air tool oil, adjusted to two drops per minute. If an
air line lubricator cannot be used, add air motor oil to the inlet once a day.

every day. Replace damaged or worn parts.
2. High wear parts are underlined in the parts list.
*These declared values were obtained by laboratory type testing in compliance with the stated standards and are not
adequate for use in risk assessments. Values measured in individual work places may be higher than the declared values. The
actual exposure values and risk of harm experienced by an individual user are unique and depend upon the way the user
works, the workpiece and the workstation design, as well as upon the exposure time and the physical condition of the user. We,
Chicago Pneumatic, cannot be held liable for the consequences of using the declared values, instead of values reflecting the
actual exposure, in an individual risk assessment in a work place situation over which we have no control.
