Matco warrants its air tools for a period of 1 year
to the consumer. We will repair any air tool covered
under this warranty which proves to be defective
in material or workmanship during the warranty
period. In order to have your tool repaired, return
the tool to any Matco Authorized Warranty Center,
freight prepaid. Please include a copy of your proof
of purchase and a brief description of the problem.
The tool will be inspected and if any part or
parts are found to be defective in material or
workmanship, they will be repaired free of
charge and the repaired tool will be returned
to you freight prepaid.
This warranty gives you specific rights. You may also
have other rights which vary from state to state.
The foregoing obligation is Matco’s sole liability
under this or any implied warranty and under no
circumstances shall Matco be liable for any incidental
or consequential damages.
Note: Some states do not allow the exclusion or
limitation of incidental or consequential damages
so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply
to you.
WARRANTY
AIR SUPPLY...
Tools of this class operate on a wide range of air
pressures. It is recommended that air pressure of
these tools measures 90 PSI at the tool while running
free. Higher pressure (over 90 psig; 6.2 bar) raises
performance beyond the rated capacity of the tool
which will shorten the tool’s life because of faster
wear and could cause injury.
Always use clean, dry air. Dust, corrosive fumes and/
or water in the air line will cause damage to the
tool. Drain the air tank daily. Clean the air
inlet filter screen on at least a weekly schedule.
The recommended hookup procedure can be
viewed in the above figure.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply has
standard 1/4" NPT. Line pressure should be
increased to compensate for unusually long air
hoses (over 25 feet). Minimum hose diameter
should be 3/8" I.D. and fittings should have the
same inside dimensions and be tightly secured.
LUBRICATION...
Lubricate the air tool daily with quality air tool
oil. If no air line oiler is used, run a teaspoon of oil
through the tool. The oil can be squirted into
the tool air inlet or into the hose at the nearest
connection to the air supply, then run the tool.
OPERATION...
Always place a chisel in the hammer and hold the
tool down to the work before operating. Damage
to the tool or the retainer may result if this
precaution is not followed.
The chisel retainers are not designed for complete
safety against accidental release of cutters or
hammers. To avoid injury, the throttle must never
be depressed unless the chisel is held firmly against
the work place. When tool is not in actual use, the
chisel must be removed. During operation, safety
goggles should always be used to guard against
flying rust and chips. When using tool, regulate
the speed so that the chisel is not being driven out
of the cylinder. If piston is allowed to strike the cyl-
inder wall, internal damage will result.
To change chisel, pull back on spring hook and
insert chisel. Release spring hook.
To regulate air, turn air regulator knob out for
maximum air pressure and in for minimum.
