MAINTENANCE
Tips
●
If the tool jams while cutting, release throttle immediately. Do not attempt to free the
tool by starting and stopping the tool.
Lubrication
Air tools require lubrication throughout the life of the tool. The air motor and bearing uses
compressed air to power the tool. Because moisture in compressed air will rust the air
motor, you must lubricate the motor daily. An inline oiler is recommended.
To lubricate the air motor manually:
●
Disconnect the tool from the air supply holding it so the air inlet faces up.
●
Depress the throttle safety release and throttle control lever
and place one to two drops of air tool oil in the air inlet
Depressing the throttle control lever helps circulate oil in the
motor.
NOTE
: Use SAE #10 weight oil if air tool oil is not
available.
●
Connect the tool to an air source, cover the exhaust end with a
towel and run for a few seconds.
Any excess oil in the motor is immediately
expelled from the exhaust port. Always direct exhaust port
away from people or objects.
Failure to lubricate the tool at the air inlet will void your
warranty.
