Why is my Ingersoll-Rand 5 series losing power?
- N
  Natalie ThompsonAug 12, 2025
  If your Ingersoll-Rand Power Screwdriver is experiencing a loss of power, several factors could be responsible. First, check the air supply to ensure the air pressure is at 90 psig (6.2 bar/620 kPa) at the inlet for optimal performance. Also, the air strainer or inlet screen, muffler or exhaust silencer might be plugged and needs cleaning (or replacement if cleaning isn't effective). Other potential causes include worn or broken vanes (replace the set), a damaged rear end plate gasket (install a new one), a worn or broken cylinder (replace if cracked or scored), or improper lubrication/dirt build-up (clean and lubricate the motor unit parts).

  If the motor stalls before the adjustable clutch ratchets on your Ingersoll-Rand Power Screwdriver, it could be due to a few reasons. Check the clutch adjustment and review the tool's performance against requirements. Also, verify that the air supply provides 90 psig (6.2 psig/620 kPa) at the inlet. Insufficient grease in the clutch can also cause this issue, so lubricate it as instructed.

Why is the adjustable clutch on my Ingersoll-Rand 5 series disengaging inconsistently?
- A
  Andrew BooneAug 20, 2025
  Inconsistent disengagement of the adjustable clutch in your Ingersoll-Rand Power Screwdriver can stem from several causes. Improper lubrication can be a factor, so remove and check the adjustable clutch mechanism and lubricate as instructed. Worn or damaged parts may also be responsible, requiring you to remove the adjustable clutch and examine/replace any faulty components. Additionally, using the wrong clutch spring (a heavy one for light applications) can cause this, so consider switching to a medium or light clutch spring.

  Edgar FosterAug 25, 2025
  A leaky throttle valve on your Ingersoll-Rand Power Screwdriver may be due to a worn throttle valve and/or throttle valve seat, requiring you to install new parts. Alternatively, dirt accumulation on these components could be the culprit. Try pouring about 3 cc of a clean cleaning solution into the air inlet and operate the tool valve for about 30 seconds. Then, immediately pour 3 cc of the recommended oil into the air inlet and operate the tool for 30 seconds to lubricate the cleaned parts.

  If the gear case of your Ingersoll-Rand Power Screwdriver gets hot, it could be due to excessive grease. You should clean and inspect the gear case and gearing parts, then lubricate as instructed. Another possible cause is worn or damaged parts, in which case you should clean, inspect, and replace any broken components.

  Maria GouldAug 31, 2025
  Loss of power in your Ingersoll-Rand Drill can stem from several factors. First, ensure your air supply delivers 90 psig (6.2 bar/620 kPa) at the inlet. Also, a plugged air strainer or inlet screen can be the culprit; clean it with a suitable cleaning solution, or replace it if cleaning isn't effective. A clogged muffler or exhaust silencer could also be restricting performance; clean or replace these components as needed. Other potential causes include worn or broken vanes (replace the set), a damaged rear end plate gasket (install a new one), or a worn or broken cylinder (replace if cracked or scored). Finally, improper lubrication or dirt build-up can impede operation; clean and lubricate the motor unit parts according to instructions.

  A leaky throttle valve in your Ingersoll-Rand Drill can be due to a worn throttle valve and/or throttle valve seat, so you should install a new throttle valve and/or throttle valve seat. Another cause can be dirt accumulation on these parts. To address this, pour about 3 cc of a clean, suitable cleaning solution into the air inlet and operate the tool valve for about 30 seconds. Immediately follow this by pouring 3 cc of the recommended oil into the air inlet and operating the tool for another 30 seconds to lubricate the cleaned parts.
