A competent person must disassemble and inspect higher wear parts periodically if the tool is used every
day or if there is a noticeable drop in the tool performance. Any damaged or worn parts must be replaced.
Your 12 month warranty could become void if the tool is unnecessarily dismantled and damage is caused.
If you are unsure about dismantling the tool, please return it to your local Kobe agent.
The use of other than genuine Kobe replacement parts may result in safety hazards, decreased tool
performance, increased maintenance and voiding of warranty.
Mineral spirits are recommended when cleaning the tool and its parts. DO NOT clean with any solvents or
oils containing acids, esters, ketones, chlorinated hydrocarbons or nitro carbons. DO NOT use chemicals
that have a low flash point.
For spare parts or servicing please contact your local Kobe agent. Quote the tools Part and Model
Number when ordering spares.
LUBRICATION
Air tools require lubrication throughout the life of the tool as moisture in
the compressed air will rust the air motor and the correct lubrication is
vital for the maximum performance of the air tool. Failure to lubricate the
tool at the air inlet will void your warranty.
Either use an air line lubricator with air tool oil adjusted to two drops per
minute, or if an air line lubricator cannot be used, add one teaspoon of air
motor oil to the inlet
(Fig. K)
or into the hose at the nearest connection to
the air supply once a day and then run the tool. ISO Grade VG22 oil is
recommended. A rust inhibitive oil is acceptable for air tools.
Any excess oil in the motor is expelled immediately from the exhaust
port. Always direct the exhaust port away from people or objects
(Fig. K)
.
Lubricate the tool holder regularly with a light machine oil.
(Fig. M)
.
Do not lubricate the tool with flammable or volatile liquids such as paraffin
(kerosene), diesel or jet fuel.
CAUTION!
Other factors outside the tool may cause loss of power or
erratic action. Reduced compressor output, excessive drain
on the airline, moisture or restrictions in air pipes or the use of hose
connections of improper size or poor conditions may reduce air supply. If
outside conditions are in order and the tool still runs erratically,
disconnect the tool from the air hose and take it to your local Kobe agent.
WARNING!
Repairs must be performed in
a dirt-free environment by a
qualified person who is
familiar with this type of
equipment. Your warranty is
invalid if this advice is ignored.
