BEFORE USING THIS AIR TOOL
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Do not put additional pressure on the tool, this will only reduce efficiency and shorten the
tool’s life. We recommend the air pressure of this grinder at 90 PSI.
When using the grinder be careful not to exert excessive force. Too much force could be
hazardous if it caused the cutting tool spindle to bend or break.
The burning of the work piece or excessive speed reduction indicates too much force being
applied. Changing to a cutting tool may be better for the desired rate of speed and stock
removal.
Avoid hazardous conditions by making sure there is sufficient gripping force on the spindle
of cutting tool by placing the spindle 7/16” or more inside the collet.
Lubricate the motor with a good grade of air tool oil. Grit or gum deposit in the tool may cut
power and may be corrected by cleaning the air strainer and flushing out the tool with gum
solvent oil.
To ensure long life be sure to oil the tool daily. Pour 4 drops of Eagle air tool (SEA 20 non
detergent) oil into the air inlet, and then run the tool for a few seconds to clean.
If tool is an impact wrench fitted with a “Zirc” grease fitting:
The hammer mechanism of this tool also needs to be greased from time to time (depending
on usage). The tool is equipped with grease fitting for this purpose; use this connection to
re-grease the tool using Eagle impact wrench grease.
PLEASE USE EAGLE SEA 20 NON DETERGENT OIL
