1.
The tool can be lubricated with a line-mounted lubricating device or manually. During manual
lubrication, disconnect the compressed air supply, apply a few drops of pneumatic oil in the tool's
air intake and operate the tool for a few seconds. SAE 10 oil or sewing machine oil can be used.
Do not use flushing oil.
2.
Before connecting the air hose, apply 4 or 5 drops of pneumatic oil in the air intake. Do not use oil
with a high viscosity. This can impair tool performance.
3.
Lubricate the tool after every 1 or 2 hours of operation.
4.
Before putting the tool away after use, disconnect the air hose and apply 4 or 5 drops of pneumatic
oil in the air intake. Reconnect the air hose and operate the tool for approx. 30 seconds to
distribute the oil evenly. This will ensure the tool lasts longer.
5.
Clean the air intake filter cartridge each week.
Storage
Do not store in a damp location. This can result in corrosion damage to the mechanism. Always lubricate
the tool before storage.
