WARNING! Only qualified service personnel should repair the tool. An
improperly repaired tool may present a hazard to the user and/or others.
AIR TOOL LUBRICATION
NOTICE! Only use air tool oil to lubricate the tool. Other lubricants are not
suitable and will damage the tool or cause a malfunction during use.
NOTICE! Never use a penetrating oil to lubricate an air tool. Penetrating oil
acts as a solvent that will dissolve the tool’s grease packing and may
damage the o-rings, causing the tool to seize or malfunction.
1.
All air tools have an internal coating of grease to prevent corrosion
during shipping and storage. Remove this grease by adding a generous
amount of air tool oil in the air inlet and then run the tool under no
load until the exhaust is clear.
2. Manually add a drop or two of air tool oil into the tool’s male coupler plug
before each use and after every hour of continuous use. The tool will not
work properly without lubrication and parts will wear prematurely.
3.
Avoid adding too much air tool oil as this can cause premature power
loss and eventual tool failure. A qualified technician will need to take
the tool apart and clean out the excess oil.
4.
Apply a generous amount of air tool oil to the tool before storing it for
an extended period of time (overnight, weekend, etc.). Run the tool for
approximately 30 seconds to ensure the oil is evenly distributed
throughout the tool. Store it in a clean and dry location.
REPLACING THE NEEDLES
Replace any needles that are worn down, chipped or damaged.
1.
Remove the needle housing (#11) by rotating it counterclockwise.
2. Remove the needle seat (#10) and needles (#9) from the needle
housing.
3.
Pull the needles from the needle seat.
4.
Insert replacement needles into the vacant holes in the needle seat.
5.
Place the needle assembly back into the needle housing.
6. Remount the needle housing to the tool by rotating clockwise. Make
sure that the needle housing is installed tight and secure.
WARNING! Only use replacement needles that have an BPM rating equal to
or greater than the tool (see Specifications). A subpar needle can break and
shatter and may cause an injury to yourself or a bystander.
