1.
General visual inspection:
check the overall condition of the pneumatic tool,
particularly for any damaged or missing parts. Also check for the presence and
legibility of plates.
2.
General cleaning:
cleaning is necessary to rid the body of oil deposits, dust or dirt
accumulation.
Risks associated with cleaning
Disconnect the air supply hose and clean the body of the tool. Do not use organic solvents to
avoid corrosion or discolouration.
3.
Clean the air outlet nozzle:
cleaning is necessary to free the hot air outlet nozzle
and filter of dirt accumulation. Do not use paint thinner, gasoline, or similar substances
to clean the nozzle.
4.
Lubricating moving parts:
lubricate all the gears and moving mechanical parts of the
wrench, at least once a day, as described below:
a. Insert lubricating oil inside the compressed air inlet nozzle (Figure 8 / B).
To do this, disconnect the air hose, turn over the wrench and put a few drops of
oil into the nozzle using an oiler.
b. Insert lubricating oil inside the housing of the accessory (Figure 8 / A).
To do this, unscrew the hex screw located on the side of the casing, rest the tool
on a horizontal surface, and then insert the oil using an oiler.
