Preparing for Operation
Ensure compressed air is dry and air lines do not contain condensate. Set to desired impact power by adjusting
the regulator screw. Use only chisels and bits in good operating condition and suitable for the job.
Place chisel in spring retainer, hold retainer at front end and screw onto
cylinder.
To change the chisel hold rear end of spring retainer and unscrew from
cylinder.
Note:
To prevent built-up of dust or foreign matter inside the chuck, lubricate with a few drops of machine oil every
two working hours.

Air Supply
The operating pressure for this air tool should not exceed 6 bar/87 psi. A higher operating pressure, as well as
soiled air shorten the life of the air tool and may cause dangerous situations. Condensate (condensed water) in
the air lines damages an air tool. Drain condensate from pressure vessel daily. Clean filter or screen in air inlet of
the air tool at least once a week. It is recommended to install a pressure regulator with integrated water trap and
an oiler in the supply line near the tool.

Maintenance
Give a few drops of pneumatic oil into the air inlet daily.
