4.
Before put
ting the tool away after use, disc
onnect the air hose and apply 4 or 5 drops of pneumatic
oil in the air intake. Reconnect the air hose and operate the tool for approx. 30 seconds to
distribute the oil evenly. This will ensure the tool lasts longer.
5.
Do not store in a damp location. This can result in corrosio
n damage to the mechanism. Always
lubricate the tool before storage.
6.
When a product has c
ome to the end of its useful life it must be recycled in compliance with
regulations in force. The tool must not be incinerated.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem
Possible cause
Action
The tool operates
slowly or not at
all.
1.
The tool is
clogged.
2.
No oil in the tool.
3.
Low air pressure.
4.
Air hose leaking.
5.
Pressure drop.
6.
Worn rotor
blades.
7.
Water is
emerging through
the tool’s air
outlet.
1.
Clean the tool with pneumat
ic oil or solvent.
2.
Lubricate the tool according to the lubrication
instructions.
3.
a. Set the regulator on the
tool to max.
b. Set the regulator on the compressor to the maximum
permitted operating pressure for the tool (6.2
bar).
4.
Tighten and seal any leaking connections. Use sealing
tape.
5.
a. Use a hose with the correct dimensions. A long hose
or a tool that has a high air consumption may require a
hose with an inner diameter of 1/2” or larger,
depending on the total hose length.
b. Do not use several hoses l
inked together with
quick-
release couplings. This will cause a pressure drop and
cause the tool to work less
efficiently. Connect the
hoses directly.
6.
Replace the rotor blades.
7.
Drain out the water from the air container (se
e the
compressor manual). Lubricat
e the tool and operate
until no water can be seen. Lubricate the tool again
and operate for 1–2 seconds.
Abnormal
vibrations and/or
heat in the tool.
Inadequate lubrication.
Follow the lubrication instructions.
