CARE AND MAINTENANCE
14
ALWAYS DISCONNECT TOOL FROM THE AIR SUPPLY BEFORE PERFORMING
ANY MAINTENANCE ON THE TOOL.
Always make sure the tool is properly lubricated during operation. Proper lubrication
is shown in this instruction manual.
An in-line oiler (not included) is recommended to help increase tool life and keep the
tool properly lubricated. The in-line oiler should be regularly checked and filled with
air tool oil as needed. Proper adjustment of the in-line oiler can be performed by
placing a sheet of paper next to the tool’s exhaust ports while holding the throttle
completely open for 30 seconds. When a light stain of oil collects on the paper, the
oiler is properly adjusted. Excessive amounts of oil should be avoided.
Clean the entire tool with a cotton rag after each use. If storing the tool for an
extended period, it should be lubricated and run for approximately 30 seconds to
ensure oil has been evenly distributed throughout the tool. Always store tools in a
clean, dry environment away from the reach of children.
Recommended lubricants: air-tool oil or any other high grade turbine oil
containing moisture absorbent, rust inhibitors, metal wetting agents and an EP
(extreme pressure) additive. Consult your local retailer for further assistance
in selecting air tool oil best suited for proper lubrication.
STORAGE:
Tool must be well cleaned and lightly lubricated before storing.
Store tool in a dry, safe place out of the reach of children.
