TROUBLESHOOTING
Factors That May Inhibit Performance:
• Loss of power or erratic action may be caused by reduced compressor output, an excessive drain on the air line,
moisture or restrictions in air pipes or the use of hose connections of improper size.
• Grit or gum deposits in the tool may cut power and can be corrected by cleaning the air strainer and flushing out
the tool with gum solvent oil or an equivalent de-greaser.
• If all outside conditions are in order, disconnect the tool from the air supply, disassemble and replace any worn or
damaged parts with Jefferson approved parts.
• Clean all parts, reassemble the tool and lubricate.
• Store the tool in a safe, dry, secure environment.
