CARE AND MAINTENANCE
ALWAYS DISCONNECT TOOL FROM THE AIR SUPPLY BEFORE
PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE ON THE TOOL.
Always make sure the tool is properly lubricated during operation. Proper
lubrication is shown in this instruction manual.
An in-line oiler (not included) is recommended to help increase tool life and
keep the tool properly lubricated. The in-line oiler should be regularly
checked and filled with air tool oil as needed. Proper adjustment of the in-line
oiler can be performed by placing a sheet of paper next to the tool’s exhaust
ports while holding the throttle completely open for 30 seconds. When a light
stain of oil collects on the paper, the oiler is properly adjusted. Excessive
amounts of oil should be avoided.
Clean the entire tool with a cotton rag and lubricate the tool after each use.
If storing the tool for an extended period, run for approximately
30 seconds to ensure oil has been evenly distributed throughout the tool.
Always store tools in a clean, dry environment away from the reach of
children.
Recommended lubricants: air-tool oil or any other high grade turbine oil
containing moisture absorbent, rust inhibitors, metal wetting agents and an
EP (Extreme Pressure) additive. Consult your local retailer for further
assistance in selecting air tool oil best suited for proper lubrication.
STORING:
Tool must be well cleaned and lightly lubricated before storing.
Store tool in a dry, safe place out of the reach of children.
