3. Apply tool grease from grease gun to greasing points marked with the following

sticker.

Note: The hammer must stand upright resting on the tool to ensure that the grease
will penetrate downwards between the tool and the bushing.

Do not fill the space between the piston and the tool with grease. A lower piston seal
failure can result and the hammer will subsequently leak oil.
