PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSES
LIKELY SOLUTIONS
Decreased output
1. Not enough air pressure
and/or air flow.
2. Obstructed lever.
3. Incorrect lubrication or not
enough lubrication.
4. Dull or damaged
accessory.
5. Blocked air lnlet screen.
6. Air leaking from loose
housing.
7. Mechanism contaminated.
1. Check for loose connections and make enough air
flow (CFM) at required pressure (PSI) to the tool’s air
inlet. Do not exceed maximum air pressure.
2. Clean around lever to ensure free movement.
3. Lubricate using air took oil according to directions.
4. Replace accessory.
5. Clean air inlet screen of buildup.

MAINTENANCE
Every day, perform maintenance on the air supply system according to the
compressor manufacturers’ instructions. The lubricator’s oil level needs to be
maintained and the moisture filter must be regularly drained. Performing routine
maintenance on the air supply will allow the tool to operate more safely and will also
reduce wear on the tool. Before every use, add a few drops of a air tool oil (sold
separately) to the air lnlet.
Tool disassembly, cleaning, and lnspection: Have the internal mechanism cleaned,
inspected, and lubricated by a qualified technician.
WARNING:
To prevent serious injury from accidental operation: turn off the tool,
detach the air supply, safely discharge any residual air pressure in the tool, and
release the throttle before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning
procedures.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM TOOL FAILURE
Do not use damaged equipment. If abnormal noise, vibration, or leaking air occurs,
have the problem corrected before further use.
TO PREVENT EXPLOSION
Lubricate the tool only with specified lubricants. Lubricate the air inlet using only
pneumatic tool oil. Other lubricants may damage the mechanism and may be highly
flammable, causing an explosion.
Note:
CLEANING, MAINTENANCE, AND LUBRICATION are in addition to the
regular checks and maintenance explained as part of the regular operation of the
air-operated tool.
