Air Supply...
Tools of this class operate on a wide range of air pressures.
It is recommended that air pressure of these tools measures 90 PSI
at the tool while running free. Higher pressure (over 90 psig; 6.2 bar)
raises performance beyond the rated capacity of the tool which will
shorten tool life because of faster wear and could cause injury.
Always use clean, dry air. Dust, corrosive fumes and/or water in the air
line will cause damage to the tool. Drain the air tank daily. Clean the air
inlet filter screen on at least a weekly schedule. The recommended hookup
procedure can be viewed in the above figure.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply, has standard 1⁄4" NPT.
Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long
air hoses (over 25 feet). Minimum hose diameter should be 3/8" I.D.
and fittings should have the same inside dimensions and be tightly
secured.
Lubrication...
Lubricate the air motor daily with quality air tool oil. If no air line
oiler is used, run a teaspoon of oil through the tool. The oil can
be squirted into the tool air inlet or into the hose at the nearest
connection to the air supply, then run the tool.
Operation...
The speed of this saw can be regulated. It has a slotted screw which
rotates 360 degrees. However, only a quarter turn segment (90
degrees) within the full turn regulates the speed of the saw. When
the screw is rotated a full quarter turn in either direction, the tool
speed will go from maximum to minimum or vice versa. Rotate the
screw within the quarter turn until the desired speed is obtained.
To Change Blades:
1. Remove screw (#29)
2. Pull down protective cover (#16)
3. Loosen set screws (#11)
4. Insert blade into saw holder (#10) and tighten.
5. Close protective cover and re-install screw.
Troubleshooting...
Other factors outside the tool may cause loss of power or erratic
action. Reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the air line,
moisture or restrictions in air pipes or the use of hose connections of
improper size or poor conditions may reduce air supply. Grit or gum
deposits in the tool may cut power and may be corrected by cleaning
the air strainer and flushing out the tool with gum solvent oil or an
equal mixture of SAE #10 and kerosene. If outside conditions are
in order, disconnect tool from hose and take tool to your nearest
authorized service center.
