Description and Safety
The original language of this manual is English.
Product Safety Information:
Intended Use:
These chisels and needle scalers are driven by
compressed air to remove material.
For additional product safety information refer to Apex
Tool Group, LLC or Apex Tool Group GmbH & Co. OHG
document CE-2017, General Safety Percussion Tools.
These chisels or needle scalers must not be modified
in any manner unless approved in writing by Apex Tool
Group, LLC or Apex Tool Group GmbH & Co. OHG. All
safety devices must be properly installed and maintained
in good working order.
Quick Disconnect Coupling
Attachment of a quick disconnect compressed air
coupling directly to the inlet threads of a percussion tool
can cause wear and failure of the coupling. Failure of
the coupling may cause severe injury from the air hose
end violently whipping about. If a quick disconnect air
coupling is used, separate the coupling from the tool
with a whip hose (1.5 feet minimum length).
Chisel/Scaler Care and Use
Cracked chisels or implements are hazardous. Visually
inspect the chisel or implement for cracks before using.
Have all chisels magnifluxed before re-sharpening.
Destroy and discard any chisel or implement that shows
a crack or damage.
Correct selection of the chisel or other implement is
important. Dull edges on the chisel or moil point cause
the energy of the percussion blow to be absorbed by the
tool, instead of the work piece, increasing the chance of
chisel breakage.
When operating percussion tools in explosive or
flammable environments, use only non-sparking chisels
or implements such as those made from beryllium
copper. Also, do not use cupped rivet sets with Cleco
percussion tools to drive nails. Blows not centered on
the nail can cause the nail to ricochet off the work and
strike the user.
Air Line Lubrication:
Use Apex Tool Group, LLC or Apex Tool Group GmbH
& Co. OHG’s lightweight air tool oil 500021 (available
in quantities shown in the following chart) or an SAE-5
lightweight spindle oil.
Air Supply Line:
Service and Repair:
Always disconnect the air supply before changing the
chisel or implement or performing any service on the
tool.
Tool service and repair should be performed by an
authorized Apex Tool Group, LLC or Apex Tool Group
GmbH & Co. OHG Center. Refer to the last page of this
manual for locations.
Disposal:
Observe local disposal guidelines for all
components of this tool and its packaging.
