After each use, remove the air hose and wipe the Pneumatic Shears with a
clean cloth to remove any dirt and grease buildup.
2.
To maintain tool life, always lubricate the air line by adding a few drops of
pneumatic tool oil to the air line before each use. You can also install the
automatic oiler-filter system, as illustrated on Page 5.
3.
Before each use, drain water out of the air compressor tank and
condensation from the air lines. Refer to the Air Compressor Operator’s
Manual.
