Maintaining The Air Stapler; Air Pressure; Airstapler - Ferm ATM1042 Originalbetriebsanleitung

Checking operation of the air stapler
Remove all fasteners from the air
stapler before you perform a check.
• Hold the tool firmly by the handgrip, without
your finger on the trigger.
• Set the fastener head of the tool against the
work surface.
• Press the trigger so that the hammer pin
emerges. Release the trigger and the cycle is
complete.
Every time the trigger is pressed, the air
stapler will make a complete cycle.

Whenever performing maintenance on
the air stapler, pay attention to the
warnings given in these instructions for
use, and be extra cautious when
troubleshooting problems with the air
stapler.
Replacing parts
Original parts are recommended when
replacement of parts is necessary. Do not use any
alternative parts that cannot perform as well as
the original parts in the appliance.
Working practice when preforming
maintenance
Whenever you are repairing the air stapler, take
care to clean and lubricate the internal parts. Use
Parker "O-Lube" or similar on all O-rings. Coat all
O-rings with O-Lube before reassembling. Apply
oil lightly to all moving surfaces and pins. Finally,
following complete assembly, squirt a few drops
of pneumatic tool lubricant into the air input fitting,
before commencing testing.
Air pressure and volume
Air volume is just as important as air pressure.
The air volume that is delivered to the air stapler
may be insufficient due to defective couplings
and crimped hoses, or through the effect of
contamination and water in the system. The
consequence of a restricted airflow is that the air
stapler receives an inadequate air volume, even
though the air pressure reading is high. This will
lead to defective operation, through reduced
driving power.
Before you begin with troubleshooting, you should
first inspect the path from compressor to air
stapler for restricted connections, twisted hoses
and anything else that might prevent sufficient air
from flowing to the appliance.
Lubrication
Frequent, but not excessive, lubrication is
essential for optimum functioning. Oil injected
from an oil mist lubricator will lubricate the internal
parts continuously. Use a lubricant for pneumatic
tools, Mobil Velocite #10, or equivalent. Use no
cleaning oil or additives, as these lubricants can
cause accelerated wear of seals and edges in the
appliance, resulting in a poor performance and
frequent maintenance of the tool.
Please use Airline Lubricating Oil into
the air inlet on the handle of the

Airstapler.

When there is no oil mist lubricator available,
add oil via the QD coupling once or twice a day,
while using. Just a few droplets of oil each time is
sufficient. Excessive oil will simply accumulate in
the appliance, which will become noticeable when
tacking.
Use during cold weather
With operation during cold weather, close to
or below freezing point, moisture in the air
pipeline can freeze, making use of the appliance
impossible. We recommend the use of a special
winter lubricant for pneumatic tools, or the
permanent use of antifreeze (glycol) as lubricant
when the temperatures are low.
Avoid storing the tool in a cold
environment, to prevent frost or ice
formation on the operating valves and
mechanisms, which might cause
malfunction of the appliance.
Remark: Some commercial dehydrating fluids for
air pipelines are harmful to O-rings and seals. Do
not use these desiccants for low temperatures
without being certain of compatibility.
Environment
To prevent damage in transit, the machine is
delivered in sturdy protective packaging. The
