MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
DANGER
To avoid personal injury,
always
disconnect the handle assembly from the air supply when performing maintenance or
inspection procedures.
Each handle assembly is inspected before shipment. Inspect the handle assembly immediately upon arrival at
the facility of use to ensure that it has not been damaged during shipping.
6.1.
Daily maintenance
Each operator of the power unit must be aware of, and responsible for, the following daily maintenance
requirements:
1. Remove dust, dirt and other contaminants with a clean brush or soft lint-free cloth.
Do not
use objects
that could damage the handle assembly.
2. Ensure that all components are in place and properly secured.
3. With the terminating head in place, connect the air supply.
4. Squeeze and release the trigger to ensure that the mechanisms and plunger move smoothly.
6.2.
Periodic inspection
Regular inspections must be performed at least once per month. Base your inspection frequency on
amount of use, the presence of abnormal amounts of dust and dirt, operator training and skill, and
established company standards.
Remove any accumulated film with a suitable cleaning agent that does not affect plastic material.
Check the handle assembly for chipped, cracked, worn, or broken areas. If damage is evident, repair is
necessary. See section 7, REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR.
