Air Motor Lubrication
To maintain the maximum performance of the air tool, it must be lubricated
each time it is used. Dust, dirt, rust and oil residue will build up inside the tool
and reduce the performance. An in-line oiler is recommended for proper
automatic tool lubrication (see Figure 1). If an in-line oiler is not available, the
tool can be lubricated manually through the inlet port (see Figure 4).
1. Disconnect the air tool from the air supply.
2. Turn the tool upside down and while depressing the trigger, add 4-6 drops
of air tool oil or SAE10 nondetergent oil into the air inlet.
NOTE:
Depressing the trigger helps circulate oil in the air motor.
3. Reconnect the tool to the air supply, cover the exhaust port end with a
towel and run in forward and reverse directions for approximately 30 seconds
to remove excess oil.
NOTE: If the tool remains sluggish after it has been lubricated, the internal components may need to
be cleaned.
To Clean:
Disconnect the air tool from the air supply and pour or spray a generous amount of WD-40® into the air inlet
with the trigger depressed. Connect the tool to the air supply, cover the exhaust port end with a towel and run in
forward and reverse directions for approximately 30 seconds. Follow the air motor lubrication instructions above
after cleaning is completed to re-lubricate the tool.
After oiling or cleaning, cover the exhaust port with a towel and operate the tool for a
few seconds to safely remove the excess oil. Clean the handle and surface of the tool of any oil residue.
Failure to cover the exhaust port and clean the tool, can result in serious injury.
Note: Keep the towel
away from moving parts!

SYMPTOM
POSSIBLE CAUSE(S)
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Tool will not run or runs
slowly
Grit in tool; tool gummed up
No oil in tool
Low air pressure
Air hose leaks
Pressure drops
Clean the air motor inside the tool with WD-40®
(see “user maintenance” section).
Add 4-6 drops of air tool oil into the air inlet of the
tool (see “user maintenance” section).
Adjust compressor regulator to 90 PSI.
Tighten and seal hose fittings with Teflon® tape if
leaks are found.
Do not use excessive couplings between hoses.

8. To change chisels;
a. Remove the retainer spring by pressing tab “B” and turning to remove the retainer spring (see figure 3).
b. Insert new chisel.
c. Slide the retainer spring over the chisel.
