LUBRIFICATION
Air tools require regular lubrication throughout the life of the tool. The air motor and bearing use
compressed air to power the tool. Because moisture in compressed air will rust the air motor, you
must lubricate the motor daily. An inline oiler is recommended.
To lubricate the air motor manually:
Disconnect the tool from the air supply holding it so the air inlet faces up.
Depress the trigger and place one to two drops of air tool oil in the air inlet.
Connect the tool to an air source, cover the exhaust end with a towel and run for a few seconds.
Every 3 or 4 hours of operation, oiling is necessary.
Do not lubricate tools with flammable or volatile liquids such as kerosene, diesel or jet fuel.
ATTENTION
ALWAYS DISCONNECT AIR SUPPLY BEFORE LUBRICATING,
INSTALLING, REMOVING OR ADJUSTING THE TOOL
ATTENTION
Any excess oil in the motor is immediately expelled from the exhaust port. Always direct
exhaust port away from people or objects.
