REPLACING BLADES

After heavy use, the blades and knife 
may become damaged and require 
replacement. Replacements are 
available from your Clarke dealer.

1. To remove both blades and the 

knife, unfasten thethree socket 
headed screws using the hex key 
provided.

• The nose section will become 

detached from the body 
connector.

2. Remove and replace the knife and the left/righthand blades and re-

tighten the screws.

• Take care not to lose the knife pivot bush shown and replace it when 

refitting the knife.

PERFORMANCE

Please note that factors other than the tool may effect its operation and 
efficiency such as reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the airline, 
moisture or restrictions in the air-line, or the use of connectors of improper size 
or poor condition which will reduce air supply.

**Clarke Air Line Oil (part no. 3050825) is available from your Clarke dealer.

When not in use, disconnect from air supply, clean & store in a safe, dry place.

Your Clarke air tool has been designed to give long and trouble free service. If, 
however, having followed the instructions in this booklet carefully, you 
encounter problems, take the unit to your local Clarke dealer.

STORAGE

If the tool is to be stored, or is idle for longer than 24 hours, run a few drops of 
Clarke air line oil into the air inlet, and run the tool for 5 seconds in order to 
lubricate the internal parts.

ACCESSORIES

A wide range of accessories is available including filter/regulators, lubricators, 
high-pressure hoses (5 to 50 metres) etc.

Contact your Clarke dealer for further information or Clarke International 
Service Department on 01992 565333.
