Air Motor Lubrication

To maintain the maximum performance of the air tool, it must be lubricated

each time it is used. Dust, dirt, rust and oil residue will build up inside the tool
and reduce the performance. An in-line oiler is recommended for proper 
automatic tool lubrication (see Figure 1). If an in-line oiler is not available, the
tool can be lubricated manually through the inlet port (see Figure 3).

1.

Disconnect the air tool from the air supply.

2.

Turn the tool upside down and while depressing the trigger, 
add 4-6 drops of Coleman Powermate® air tool oil #018-0059SP or 
SAE10 nondetergent oil into the air inlet. 

NOTE:

Depressing the trigger 

helps circulate oil in the air motor. 

3.

Reconnect the tool to the air supply, cover the exhaust port end with a towel and run in forward and reverse 
directions for approximately 30 seconds to remove excess oil.

NOTE: If the tool remains sluggish after it has been lubricated, the internal components may need to 
be cleaned. 

To Clean:

Disconnect the air tool from the air supply and pour or spray a generous amount of WD-40® into the air inlet 

with the trigger depressed. Connect the tool to the air supply, cover the exhaust port end with a towel and run in
forward and reverse directions for approximately 30 seconds. Follow the air motor lubrication instructions above
after cleaning is completed to re-lubricate the tool.

After oiling or cleaning, cover the exhaust port with a towel and operate the tool for a 
few seconds to safely remove the excess oil. Clean the handle and surface of the tool 
of any oil residue. Failure to cover the exhaust port and clean the tool, can 
result in serious injury.  

Note: Keep the towel away from moving parts!
