1. Wrap the external threads of the male coupler with sealant tape.
1.1 Wrap tape in a clockwise direction so it will not unravel.
1.2 Do not tape all the threads. Leave several leading threads
unwrapped for easier alignment.
2. Screw the coupler into the tool's air inlet (D) and tighten with a
wrench until snug.
3. Run the compressor at a low volume and check the connection for
air leaks. Do not use the tool until all air leaks are repaired or the
faulty component is replaced.
IMPORTANT! Vibration may cause failure if a quick coupler is
connected directly to the air tool. To overcome this, connect a
leader hose to the tool. A quick coupler may then be used to
connect the leader hose to the air line hose.
INSTALL SPRING RETAINER
1. Align the rear of the spring retainer (A) with the threads on the
cylinder (B).
2. Thread the coil onto the cylinder. Twist the coil by the front loop. It
will spread the spring out slightly, making it easier to thread. Stop
when the rear loop is at the last thread on the left side of the air
hammer.
3. To remove the spring retainer, reverse the steps above, but use the
rear loop for leverage.
ACCESSORY INSTALLATION
1. Remove the internal packing grease from the tool before the first
use. See Air Tool Lubrication for instructions.
2. Disconnect the tool from its air source and discharge any residual air
before attaching or changing chisels or accessories.
3. Select your chisel (E to H). Make sure it is in good working
condition and will not shatter or break while in use.
4. Push the arm of the spring retainer to widen the opening so a
chisel shank can be inserted or removed. Once the chisel is
seated, release pressure on the spring retainer so it will close over
the raised ridge on the chisel shank and lock it into place. You may
need to rotate the chisel shank a bit for it to lock.
