9) The operational process of the Long Reach Air Tool
produces impulse forces (blow force) on a cyclic basis
(frequency or blow rate). The vibration levels produced
can directly impact upon sensitive objects (building
structure, computers, electrically operated components
etc.), resulting in damage. This potential occurrence
must be taken into consideration when operating the
Long Reach Air Tool for any specific job application.
STOPPING THE LONG REACH AIR TOOL.
Applications: All models.
1) Stopping the Long Reach Air Tool is accomplished
by releasing the throttle control valve to its maximum
closed position. When not in operation, disconnect the
Long Reach Air Tool from the compressed air source.

TEMPORARY STORAGE FOR THE LONG REACH
AIR TOOL WHILE ON THE JOB SITE.
Applications: All models.
AN IMPROPER TEMPORARY
STORAGE
CONFIGURATION FOR THE LONG REACH AIR
TOOL CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE
AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
Store the Long Reach Air Tool temporarily on the job
site in a horizontal position on a suitable surface such
as a floor. Storage in a vertical position against a wall
is an acceptable alternative if proper support can be
afforded to prevent the unit from accidently falling.
When not in operation, store the Long Reach Air Tool:
a) With the air hose disconnected from the
compressed air source.
b) With the accessory tool removed.
c) With the air hose disconnected from the Air Caddy.
d) With the screw located on the bottom of the
pressure regulator (if utilizing the Air Caddy) turned out
in a counterclockwise direction to release pressure
from the internal diaphragm.
Troubleshooting
Applications: All models.
TOOL FAILS TO OPERATE WHEN THROTTLE
CONTROL VALVE IS DEPRESSED
TOOL OPERATES AT A REDUCED (SLOWER)
FREQUENCY RATE
Dirt, oil or gummy byproducts have accumulated within
the internal components. Add a small amount of
suitable solvent to the inlet and allow to circulate. After
30 minutes, depress the throttle control valve until the
tool functions. After the solvent has completely
circulated and exhausted through the outlet port, add
10 drops of pneumatic tool lubrication oil conforming to
ISO 3498 HM.32. Depress the throttle control valve
until the lubrication oil is exhausting through the outlet
port at a steady rate. Repeat the procedure as
necessary.
