COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If a tool does not operate satisfactorily in freezing temperatures, certain steps can correct the
problem. The following steps can be taken to improve cold weather operation of the tool:
a. An air line dryer adjacent to the compressor.
b. Use lubricant recommended by Signode. Signode has tested the use of anti-freezes, none
work well in air tool; the tool will gum up when anti-freezes are introduced and will not
function properly. The best lubricant for freezing weather is the 1 to 1 oil and kerosene
combination.
c. If possible, run the air supply line to a indoor located Filter-Regulator-Lubricator or relocate
the F-R-L to a warmer operating area.
AIR PRESSURE DROP
Confirm air pressure calibration by comparing it to a master gauge placed in-line where the quick
disconnect fitting attaches to the tool.
Air pressure at the tool can then be monitored as the tool cycles. Use the following information
shown on the chart below for comparing the various minimum air pressures while the VXT-19
tool cycles.
If pressure readings fall below the minimums, inspect your air supply system as well as the tool
for worn and/or broken parts. Contact your Signode representative if you have any questions.
