Use both hands. The force generated from this tool can cause it to break free of your
grasp, causing serious injury and damage. Always operate this tool with both hands.
Note: Performance of the compressor (if powered by line voltage) may
vary depending on variations in local line voltage. Extension cord usage
may also affect tool performance.

AIR HAMMER SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS.
Repetitive motions or exposure to vibration may be harmful to your hands and arms.
When wearing gloves to operate the Air Hammer, make sure that the gloves do not
interfere with operating the Trigger. Test your gloves with the Trigger before attaching
the unit to an air source.
Never start the tool unless you have a firm grip with both hands and you are positioned
at your work piece or area.
Before using the Air Hammer, know what is directly underneath the work area or work-
piece. The Air Hammer can quickly penetrate material. If working directly on the
ground, make sure you are not directly above shallow cables, lines, or pipes.
Keep your limbs and body clear of the Air Hammer. If a chisel or bit breaks off, the tool
tends to surge forward suddenly. Make sure the immediate area is clear of other
people or animals. Spectators must stay at a safe distance.
Never point the tool or the air hose (not included) at anyone.
Keep your finger away from the Trigger until you are ready to work.
Warningll Any spectators in the area will need eye and ear protection.
Beware of flying chips of wood, concrete, metal, or any other material
being hammered.

AIR SUPPLY
Ensure air valve (or trigger) is in the
“off” position before connecting to the air supply.
You will require an air pressure of 91psi, and an air flow according to specification.
WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 91psi while operating
the tool. Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the product life due to
excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing damage or personal injury.
Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the tool.
Clean air inlet filter weekly.
Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8
meters). The minimum hose diameter should be 3/8
” I.D. and fittings must have the
same inside dimensions.
Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hose for wear, and make
certain that all connections are secure.

LUBRICATION
An automatic in-line filter-regulator-lubricator is recommended (Fig. 1) 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.
