OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
2. When you attach air tool to air hose connected
with regulated air outlets (C), make sure that
air pressure can be read on pressure gauge
(E) by adjusting the regulating knob (F) of air
splitter (A). Turn the regulating knob (F)
clockwise to increase pressure and
counterclockwise to decrease pressure.
NOTE:
Before turning the regulating knob (F),
you must first pull the knob upward and then turn
clockwise or counterclockwise. Finally you have
to lock the regulating knob (F) into position by
pushing the knob down.
NOTE:
The correct working pressure of air tool
can be obtained in air tool manual.
3. When you attach air tool to air hose connected with unregulated air outlets (D),
make sure that the working pressure for air tool is adjusted/controlled by air
compressor regulator.
WARNING:
Never exceed 200 PSI at air inlet (B) when you use unregulated air
outlets (D) for air tool operation.
NOTE:
The correct working pressure of air tool can be obtained in air tool manual.
NOTE:
When using this air splitter, it is important to be sure that your compressor is
sized to handle the increased load created by connecting multiple tools to air splitter
simultaneously. Please be aware of the following:

Use with Pneumatic Nailers:
Do not exceed the maximum recommended pressure (PSI) for your pneumatic nailer.
Air hoses may cause up to 15 PSI drop in pressure, so you may need to set the
compressor and/or regulator to a higher output to maintain the required pressure
at the tool.
The airflow (CFM) required to power multiple nailers simultaneously is dependent
on the number of nailers and the rate at which they are being used. For example,
a smaller portable compressor rated at 3 - 4 CFM may be able to sufficiently operate
up to three nailers that are only being used occasionally. However, a much larger
compressor with a CFM rating of 14 or higher may be required to simultaneously
operate four nailers being used steadily at rapid production rates.
Consult the owner's manuals included with your pneumatic nailers for specific
details on airflow and air pressure requirements.
