AIR SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
WARNING: COMPRESSED AIR CAN BE DANGEROUS. ENSURE THAT YOU
ARE THOROUGHLY FAMILIAR WITH ALL PRECAUTIONS RELATING TO THE
USE OF COMPRESSORS AND COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY.
•
Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air as a power source.
•
Air compressors used with the sander must comply with the appropriate
European Community safety directives.
•
A build up of moisture in the air compressor will accelerate wear and
corrosion in the sander. Ensure any moisture is drained from the
compressor daily and the inlet filter is kept clean.
•
If an unusually long air hose is required,(over 8 metres), line presure may
need to be increased.
•
Never exceed the maximum operating pressure for the tool.
A typical airline arrangement is shown on the below. If an automatic in-
line filter/regulator/lubricator unit is used it will keep the tool in good
condition but should be regularly checked and topped up with oil.
IMPORTANT: If a filter/lubricator unit is not used, the sander should be
lubricated with 2 to 6 drops of oil, at least once a day or after 2 hours work,
depending upon the working environment. The oil can be inserted through
the airline connection point.
