Clean air of correct air pressure is recommended for the power supply
for this tool. A maximum of 90 PSI at the tool is recommended for most
air tools of this class. Check specications section for recommended
pressure. (Depending on length of air hose and other circumstances, air
pressure at compressor may need to be increased to 100 PSI to ensure
90 PSI at the tool.)
Water in the air hose and compressor tank contributes to reduced per-
formance and damage of the air tool. Drain the air tank and lters before
each use and as necessary to keep the air supply dry.
Hose length over 25’ causes loss in line pressure. Increase hose I.D. or
increase compressor pressure to compensate for the pressure loss. Use
an in-line pressure regulator with gauge if air inlet pressure is critical.
AIR SOURCE
LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE
Warning: Always disconnect from the air source before
attempting maintenance.
1. After each use, wipe the Air Hammer down with a lint free cloth.
2. Make sure there are no concrete chips, dirt, or debris in the Retainer
Spring (15).
3. Before storage, add a small quantity of high quality pneumatic oil in
the Air Inlet (8).
4. Examine your chisels/bits before using them. If a chisel is dull or
cracked do not use it. Replace worn or broken chisels with approved
replacement chisels from Performance Tool®.
Warning: Oil tool before each use. 4 to 5 drops of a good
grade Air Tool Oil placed in the air inlet is sufficient. Use
proper air pressure and CFM rating listed for this tool.
Drain water from hoses and compressor tank. Water in the air supply
line will cause gumming and loss of power. Clean the air lter on the
supply line and ush the tool with gum solvent or a 50/50 mix of air tool
oil and kerosene. It may be necessary to disassemble the tool to prop-
erly clean and re-lubricate. Wipe down the unit with a lint free cloth.
