5. A typical air line layout is shown above. If an automatic in-line filter/
regulator is used it will keep the tool in good condition. The lubricator
should be adjusted to approx 2 drops per minute and SAE 10 oil should be
used.
6. Never exceed the maximum operating pressure for the air tool. Ensure that
air pressure does not exceed that stated in the specification for the tool
when running. Higher pressures and contaminated air will shorten the life of
the air tool due to faster wear and is a possible safety hazard.
INSTALLATION
1. Ensure the compressor is turned off. Before using the airline, drain water
from the air reservoir at the compressor.
• The filter should be installed with reasonable accessibility for service
whenever possible.
2. The filter should be installed upstream of regulator(s), lubricator(s), and
cycling valve(s) in the air line, and should be as close as possible to the air
tool(s) when used as a main line filter and/or as a final filter.
3. Keep pipe or tubing lengths to a minimum with the inside clean and free of
dirt. Pipe joint compound should be used sparingly and applied only to the
male pipe — never into the female port.
4. Do not use PTFE tape to seal pipe joints — pieces have a tendency to
break off and lodge inside the unit, possibly causing malfunction.
5. Install the filter so that air flows as marked by the arrow on the filter body.
6. Installation should be downstream of the regulator but upstream of any
lubricator.
