CLEANING THE TOOLS:
With the front of the tool disassembled, and with the provided lubricant and
brushes, spray the lubricant, brush and wipe clean with a clean towel, the
following parts:
1) Piston – make sure to clean the chamber end of the piston and
wipe the shaft clean.
2) Barrel – clean the inside and outside of the barrel, making sure
the chamber end is free of any dirt or debris.
3) Baseplate – remove dirt and residue from inside the baseplate.
4) Receiver – remove dirt and residue from inside the receiver.
5) Magazine – brush and clean any moving parts inside the magazine. Make sure
excess lubricant is wiped clean. Excess lubricant can attract additional dirt.
MAINTAINING THE PTP-27ASMAGR AND PTP-27ALMAGR TOOLS:
A clean and maintained tool always functions best. The PTP-27ASMAGR and
PTP-27ALMAGR tools should be cleaned after each day of use, or after 1,000
continuous fastenings. While cleaning the tool, check the wearable parts such as
the piston, rubber returner and piston disk for signs of wear or damage.
WHILE CLEANING THE TOOL, MAKE SURE WEARABLE PARTS
ARE IN GOOD CONDITION.
1) Rubber returner – if there are signs of cracking or end splitting,
replace the rubber returner.
2) Piston – if the end is flared or the shaft bent, replace the piston
3) Piston Disk – if there are any signs of cracking, replace the piston disk.
