AIR SUPPLY
Tools of this class operate on a wide range of air pressures. It is
recommended that air pressure of these tools measures 90 PSI at
thetoolwhilethetoolisrunningfreely.Higherpressureandunclean
air will shorten tool life because of faster wear and may create a
hazardouscondition.
Waterintheairlinewillcausedamagetothetool.Draintheairtank
daily.Cleantheairinletfilterscreenonatleastaweeklyschedule.The
recommendedhook-upprocedurecanbeviewedinFigure1.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply has standard 1/4" NPT
AmericanThread.Linepressureshouldbeincreasedtocompensatefor
unusuallylongairhoses(over25feet).Minimumhosediametershould

Alwaysplaceachiselinthehammerandholdthetooldowntothe
workbeforeoperating.Damagetothetoolortheretainermayresultif
thisprecautioninnotfollowed.
The chisel retainers are not designed for complete safety against
accidentalreleaseofcuttersorhammers.Toavoidinjury,thethrottle
mustneverbedepressedunlessthechiselisheldfirmlyagainstthe
workplace.Whentoolisnotinactualuse,thechiselmustberemoved.
During operation, safety goggles should always be used to guard
againstflyingrustandchips.Whenusingtool,regulatethespeedso
thatthechiselisnotbeingdrivenoutofthecylinder.Ifpistonisallowed
tostrikethecylinderwall,internaldamagewillresult.
Tochangechisel,pullbackonspringhookandinsertchisel.Release
springhook.
Toregulateair,turnairregulatorknoboutformaximumairpressure
andinforminimum.
LUBRICATION
