CARE & MAINTENANCE
The tool should be lubricated before each use with air tool oil (not in-
cluded). Air tool oil is available from SGS Engineering. During continuous
operation, the tool should be oiled every 1 to 2 hours. This may be done
using an in-line oiler or manually.
1. Disconnect the tool from air supply.
2. Place a few drops of air tool oil into the air inlet. Avoid the misuse
of thicker oil which may lead to the reduced performance or mal-
function.
3. Connect the tool to the air supply. Run the tool without load for a
few seconds to distribute the oil through the tool. Any excess oil
may be propelled from the air exhaust area so point the tool in a
safe direction.
Check the air inlet screen filter for blockage and clean if necessary.
DISCONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY
1. Do not disconnect the air supply hose until the compressor has been
shut down and the compressed air released.
2. Refer to the compressor instruction manual for the procedure to shut
down and vent the compressed air.
3. Once the pressure has been released, disconnect the air supply hose
from the air tool.
CONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY
Pour 2-3 drops of airline oil into the air inlet. This should be done regard-
less of whether or not a lubricated air supply is to be used.
Connect a suitable hose to the tool as shown using the airline connector
supplied with the tool.
If required, connect an in-line mini oiler to the tool.
A mini oiler helps to prolong the life of the air tool. Remove the oil fill
screw from the side of the mini oiler and fill with air-line oil
WARNING:
COMPRESSED AIR CAN BE DANGEROUS. ENSURE THAT
YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH ALL PRECAUTIONS RELATING TO THE USE
OF AIR COMPRESSORS AND COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY.
If a mini-oiler is not being used, run a few drops of oil through the tool
before use. It can be entered through the inlet strainer or via the hose at
the nearest connection to the air supply.
Connect the other end of the hose to the compressor.
Turn on the air supply and check for air leaks. Rectify any found before
proceeding. PTFE tape may be useful for sealing threaded connections.
Your air tool is now ready for use.
