Before use
NOTE
►
The compressed air tool may only be operated
with cleaned, atomised-oil air and must not
exceed the maximum working pressure of
6 .3 bar on the appliance . The compressor
must be fitted with a pressure reducer to
regulate the working pressure .
►
Note that the maximum working pressure may
not be exceeded . An excessive working pres-
sure does not mean increased output; it merely
increases the air consumption and accelerates
appliance wear . Always comply with the
technical information .
Lubrication
WARNING!
►
Find out about any health hazards posed by
the oil you are using by reading the safety
data sheet provided by the respective
manufacturer .
►
Avoid eye and skin contact with lubricants .
NOTE
►
Regular lubrication is particularly important to
prevent friction and corrosion damage . We
recommend using a suitable special oil for
compressed air tools (e .g . Liqui Moly compres-
sor oil) .
–
Lubrication with mist oiler
A mist oiler (not supplied) continuously and
optimally lubricates the appliance as a
preparation stage after the pressure reduc-
er . A mist oiler gives off fine drops of oil
into the air flow and thus guarantees a
constant lubrication .
–
Manual lubrication
If you do not have a mist oiler, lubricate
the tool before every use or during longer
work sessions . To do this, drip 3–4 drops of
special oil for compressed air appliances
into the lubricant opening .
The following options are available to you
♦
Attach a maintenance unit with an oiler to the
compressor .
♦
Add 3–5 drops of pneumatic oil into the con-
nector nipple
2
every 15 minutes of operation .
♦
When opening the oil container
7
for the first
time, remove the cap nut from the container .
Use a pair of long-nosed pliers or a similar
implement to remove the internal pipette .
♦
Turn it 180°, replace it and screw it back in
place with the union nut .
♦
Use a needle or similar tool to poke a small
hole into the tip of the pipette to release the oil .
Connecting to a compressed air
source
NOTE
►
Before connecting the compressed air source
–
the correct working pressure (6 .3 bar) must
be fully reached, and
–
make sure that the trigger
3
is not
actuated .
►
Use only connection hoses with an internal
diameter of at least 9 mm .
►
Use only filtered, lubricated and regulated
compressed air .
♦
Connect the appliance to a compressor by at-
taching the connector nipple
2
to the supply
hose of the compressed air source .
CAUTION!
►
Ensure that the compressed air hose is firmly
attached . A loose hose can thrash about un-
controllably, causing serious danger . Likewise,
ensure firm seating of the two screw connec-
tions between the coupling piece and the tool .
♦
To ensure that you can regulate the air pressure,
the compressed air source must be equipped
with a pressure reducer .
