DAILY
Daily, before use or when first putting the tool into service, pour a few drops of clean, light lubricating oil into the air inlet of the
intensifier if no lubricator is fitted on air supply. If the tool is in continuous use, the air hose should be disconnected from the main
air supply and the tool lubricated every two to three hours.
Check for air and oil leaks. If damaged, hoses and couplings should be replaced.
If there is no filter on the pressure regulator, bleed the airline to clear it of accumulated dirt or water before connecting the air
hose to the intensifier. If there is a filter, drain it.
Check that the nose equipment is correct.
Check mandrels regularly for signs of wear or damage monitoring the number of placings (read the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS on
pages 2 and 3).
WEEKLY
Remove, inspect, clean and grease the tail jaws (refer to ‘Tail Jaw Cylinder’ in the ‘Maintenance’ section, page 22).
Check that the oil level in the intensifier reservoir is approximately
1
/2” below the transparent cover plate.
