MAINTENANCE
WARNING! When working on air tools, note the
warnings in this manual and use extra care
evaluating problem tools.
REPLACEMENT PARTS
• Bostitch® replacement parts are recommended. Do
not use modified parts or parts which will not give
equivalent performance to the original equipment.
ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE FOR SEALS
• When repairing a stapler, make sure the internal
parts are clean and lubricated. Use Parker O-LUBE
or equivalent on all O-Rings. Coat each O-Ring
with O-Lube before assembling. Use a small amount
of oil on all moving surfaces and pivots. After
reassemble add a few drops of Bostitch Air Tool
Lubricant through the air line fitting before sealing.
AIR SUPPLY - PRESSURE AND VOLUME
• Air volume is as important as air pressure. The air
volume supplied to the stapler may be inadequate
due to undersized fittings and hoses or from the
effects of dirt and water in the system. Restricted
air flow will prevent the stapler from receiving an
adequate volume of air even though the pressure
reading is high. The result will be slow operation,
misfeeds or reduced driving power.
Before evaluating stapler problems for these
symptoms, trace the air supply from the stapler to
the supply source for restrictive connectors, swivel
fittings, low points containing water or anything else
that would prevent full volume flow of air to
the stapler.
