MAINTENANCE
Lubrication
Air tools require lubrication throughout the life of the tool. The air motor and
bearing uses compressed air to power the tool. Because moisture in
compressed air will rust the air motor, you must lubricate the motor daily. An
inline oiler is recommended.
To lubricate the air motor manually:
l
Disconnect the tool from the air supply holding it so the
air inlet faces up.
l
Depress throttle control lever and place one to two
drops of air tool oil in the air inlet Depressing the
throttle control lever helps circulate oil in the motor.
NOTE: Use SAE #10 weight oil if air tool oil is not
available.
Keep out of the reach of children. If taken
internally, do not induce vomiting, call a
doctor immediately or contact your local poison control center.
l
Connect the tool to an air source, cover the exhaust end with a towel and
run for a few seconds.
Any excess oil in the motor is immediately
expelled from the exhaust port. Always direct
exhaust port away from people or objects.
Failure to lubricate the tool at the air inlet will
void your warranty.
