2. Keep the air line lubricator filled and correctly adjusted. The in-
line lubricator should be regularly checked and filled with air tool
oil. Proper adjustment of the in-line lubricator is performed by
placing a sheet of paper next to the exhaust ports and holding
the throttle open approximately 30 seconds. The lubricator is
properly set when a light stain of oil collects on the paper.
Excessive amounts of oil should be avoided.
3. Air tool oil is the only recommended lubricant for use in all air
tools. Do not try to use other types of lubricants to oil your tools.
Using the wrong lubricant will cause premature tool failure and /
or loss of power. Use only recommended lubricants, specially
made for pneumatic applications. Substitutes may harm the
rubber compounds in the tool's O-rings and other rubber parts.
4. Oiling your air tool regularly is important, but also is important
not to OVER oil your air tool. Over oiling can cause premature
tool failure. Your tool may not be ruined, but it will begin to
experience loss of power that will continually get worse until it
no longer works. The tool then has to be taken apart and cleaned
of excess oil.
5. All air tools are packed in grease to prevent corrosion of internal
parts during shipping and storage. We recommend that you
clean this out to have optimum performance from your new air
tool. Use two drops of air tool oil to lubricate the tool and run the
tool under no load until exhaust is clear.
6. In the event that it becomes necessary to store the tool for an
extended period of time (overnight, weekend, etc.), it should
receive a generous amount of lubrication at that time. The tool
should be run for approximately 30 seconds to ensure oil has
been evenly distributed throughout the tool. The tool should be
stored in a clean and dry environment.
NOTICE! NEVER use a penetrating oil to lubricate the tool.
Penetrating oil may act as a solvent that will break down the grease
and cause the tool to seize up.
STORAGE
When not in use for an extended period, apply a thin coat of lubricant
to the steel parts to avoid rust. Remove the lubricant before using the
