USer-maintenance inStrUctionS
Only a qualified technician must perform procedures not
specifically explained in this manual.
Incorporate an in-line oiler, shut-off valve,
regulator with pressure gauge, and filter for
best service, as shown in the diagram.
An
in-line shutoff valve is an important safety device
because it controls the air supply even if the air
hose is ruptured.
Note:
If an automatic oiler system is not used, add
a few drops of pneumatic tool oil to the airline
connection before operation. Add a few more
drops after each hour of continual use.
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 and/or turn the switch to it’s OFF position before
maintenance or cleaning procedures.
tO PREvENt SERIOUS INjURy fROM tOOl fAIlURE
Do not use damaged equipment.
If abnormal noise, vibrations 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. Lubricate the
internal mechanism using only white lithium grease. Other lubricants may damage the mechanism and may be highly
flammable, causing an explosion.
cleaning, maintenance, and lUbrication
Note:
The procedures are in addition to the regular checks and maintenance explained as part of the regular
operation of the air-operated tool.
DAIly AIR SUPPly MAINtENANcE
Every day, perform maintenance on the air supply according to the component 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 safer and will also reduce wear on the tool.
Note:
Always follow all manufacturer’s safety warnings and procedures for the air compressor and components you
are using with this tool.
QUARtERly (EvERy 3 MONthS)
have the internal mechanism cleaned, inspected, and lubricated by a qualified technician.
If the vanes need
replacement, all vanes should be replaced as a set.
AS NEEDED
When tool performance decreases, it may be caused by dulling of the blades.
When the blades become dull,
they need to be changed. Use the included hex wrench to remove the lock screws (27) on the cutter housing (21).
Remove the blades and bushings and replace with new blades in the same orientation as those removed. Replace all
blades at the same time. Secure the cutter housing before use.
