GAS CHARGE
CHARGING THE HAMMER
USE NITROGEN GAS ONLY.
STAY CLEAR OF THE TOOL WHILE CHARGING
THE HAMMER WITH GAS. The tool may be
impacted by the piston and forced out abruptly.
PROCEDURE
1. Carry out steps 1 thru 4 of “CHECKING THE GAS PRESSURE”.
2. Install a pressure regulator (g7) on a
tank (g9) of nitrogen gas.
3. Connect a hose (g4) from the pressure
regulator (g7) on the nitrogen tank (g9)
to the charge adapter (g1).
4. Turn the T-handle (g2) on the charge
adapter clockwise.
5. Turn the handle on the tank regulator
(g7) counterclockwise to a fully closed
position. Do not overtighten!
6. Open the valve (g10) on the nitrogen
tank (g9) by turning the handle
counterclockwise.
7. Slowly adjust the regulator on the nitrogen tank to the correct pressure by turning the
handle clockwise. Refer to the “NITROGEN GAS PRE-CHARGE” chart in the
“NITROGEN GAS PRESSURE SECTION”.
8. Charge the nitrogen gas, per the gas
charge decal (g11), until the pressure
gauge (g8) on the charge adapter (g1)
is at the correct setting, then turn the T-
handle (g2) counterclockwise all the
way out.
9. Close the nitrogen tank valve then
remove the hose (g4) from the charge
adapter.
