Examples of Tool Control Systems
The remote control air motor requires a separate external pneumatic tool control system (not supplied as
standard) for on / off and clockwise / anti-clockwise control of the tool. The direction of tool rotation is
determined by pressurising either the clockwise (FWD) or anti-clockwise (REV) air inlet ports.
A Lubro Control Unit (Part Number 16074 – supplied where specified) is required to lubricate the air and control
the air pressure so the correct torque is applied. Check the oil level in the Lubro Control Unit and fill to the
correct level. (See MAINTENANCE section).
Ensure air hoses are clean and free from dirt before connecting. The air supply hoses and control valves must
be ½” bore (12mm) and the hose from the supply to the control system must not be longer than 5 metres or the
tools performance will be impaired. If the supply hose must be longer than 5 metres then ¾” bore must be
used.
Examples of tool control systems are shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8.
WARNING: TO AVOID HAZARD FROM WHIPPING AIR HOSES MAKE ALL
CONNECTIONS TO THE TOOL BEFORE TURNING ON THE AIR SUPPLY.
