LUBRICATION
An automatic in-line filter-regulator-lubricator is recommended (Fig4) as it increases tool life and keeps
the tool in sustained operation. The in-line lubricator should be regularly checked and filled with air tool
oil.
Proper adjustment of the in-line lubricator is performed by placing a sheet of paper next to the exhaust
ports and holding the throttle open approximately 30 seconds. The lubricator is properly set when a light
stain of oil collects on the paper. Excessive amounts of oil should be avoided.
In the event that it becomes necessary to store the tool for an extended period of time (overnight,
weekend, etc.), it should receive a generous amount of lubrication at that time. The tool should be run for
approximately 30 seconds to ensure oil has been evenly distributed throughout the tool. The tool should
be stored in a clean and dry environment.
•
It is most important that the tool be properly lubricated by keeping the air line lubricator filled and
correctly adjusted. Without proper lubrication the tool will not work properly and parts will wear
prematurely.
•
Use the proper lubricant in the air line lubricator. The lubricator should be of low air flow or changing
air flow type, and should be kept filled to the correct level. Use only recommended lubricants,
specially made for pneumatic applications. Substitutes may harm the rubber compounds in the tools,
O-rings and other rubber parts.
IMPORTANT!!!
If a filter/regulator/lubricator is not installed on the air system, air operated tools should be lubricated at
least once a day or after 2 hours work with 2 to 6 drops of oil, depending on the work environment,
directly through the male air plug in the tool housing.
