SUPPLY SOURCE:
Use only clean regulated compressed air as a power source for this tool.
NEVER USE OXYGEN,
COMBUSTIBLE GASES, OR BOTTLED GASES, AS A POWER SOURCE FOR THIS TOOL AS TOOL
MAY EXPLODE.
REGULATOR:
A pressure regulator with an operating pressure of 0 - 125 p.s.i. (0 - 8.79 kg/cm
2
) is required to control the
operat iing pressure for safe operation of this tool. Do not connect this tool to air pressure which can
potentially exceed 200 p.s.i. (14 KG/CM
2
)as tool may fracture or burst, possibly causing injury.
OPERATING PRESSURE:
Do not exceed recommended maximum operating pressure as tool wear will be greatly increased. The air
supply must be capable of maintaining the operating pressure at the tool. Pressure drops in the air supply
can reduce the tool’s driving power. Refer to “TOOL SPECIFICATIONS” for setting the correct operating
pressure for the tool.
FILTER:
Dirt and water in the air supply are major causes of wear in pneumatic tools. A filter will help to get the best
performance and minimum wear from the tool. The filter must have adequate flow capacity for the specific
installation. The filter has to be kept clean to be effective in providing clean compressed air to the tool.
Consult the manufacturer’s instructions on proper maintenance of your filter. A dirty and clogged filter will
cause a pressure drop which will reduce the tool’s performance.
LOADING THE FMFP71928
EYE PROTECTION which conforms to ANSI specifications and provides protection
against flying particles both from the FRONT and SIDE should ALWAYS be worn by the
operator and others in the work area when loading, operating or servicing this tool. Eye
protection is required to guard against flying fasteners and debris, which could cause
