Each wheel is labeled with a maximum operating speed. It is extremely important to compare this
rating with the maximum operating speed of the tool. Never mount a wheel on a tool where the
maximum operating speed of the tool is higher than the maximum operating speed of the wheel. This
can cause an over speed situation and can result in injury.
The following list details specific items one should inspect and be aware of when mounting abrasives.
● The maximum operating speed marked on the wheel must be equal to or higher than the rated
spindle speed (free speed) of the tool.
● Check the wheel dimensions so that it fits within the guard properly.
● Do not use any wheel that shows cracks, chips or evidence it has been soaked in fluids.
● Wheel flanges should have flat contact surfaces and be without cracks or burrs.
Testing and Mounted Wheel
Start any new grinder with a new wheel under a bench and away from any bystanders. Run at full
speed for one minute.
Ensure Proper Pressure, Filtration & Lubrication
Properly lubricated pneumatic tools work better, last longer between maintenance intervals and are
safer in general use. The maintenance costs are reduced dramatically when a little time is taken to
regularly lubricate the tools. There are several ways to ensure proper lubrication.
1) Filters, Regulators & Lubricators
These devices should be installed in the air system at each grinding station and inspected regularly
to ensure proper operation. Each device in this set performs a vital task that greatly affects the
performance of the tool and overall longevity of the component parts.
Filters
A filter is a device used to trap/contain particulate and liquid contaminants in the compressed air
system. They generally have a cartridge or screen that requires cleaning or replacement regularly.
Without this maintenance, the filtering device can become clogged and reduce the flow of air to the
tool. A loss in performance can result.
Regulators
A regulator adjusts the operating pressure supplied to the tool. This device generally is used with
a pressure gauge that will indicate the current pressure setting. All Top Cat ® pneumatic tools are
designed to operate at 90 PSI (6.2 bar) while the tool is running. The tool should never be run if the
pressure should exceed 90 PSI (6.2 bar).
