COMPRESSED AIR LINES
AIR SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
• Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air as a power source.
• Air compressors used with the air drill must comply with the
appropriate European Community safety directives.
• A build-up of moisture or oil in the air compressor will accelerate
wear and corrosion in the air drill. Ensure any moisture is drained from
the compressor daily and the inlet filter is kept clean.
• If an unusually long air hose is required, (over 8 metres), line pressure
may need to be increased.
• Never exceed the maximum operating pressure for the air drill.
• The air hose must be rated at least 150% of the maximum operating
pressure of the tool.
A typical airline layout is shown below. If an automatic in-line filter/regulator/
lubricator unit is used it will keep the tool in good condition, but should be
regularly checked and topped up with oil.
WARNING: COMPRESSED AIR CAN BE DANGEROUS. ENSURE THAT YOU
ARE FAMILIAR WITH ALL PRECAUTIONS RELATING TO THE USE OF
COMPRESSORS AND COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY.
