General Safety
Information
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65
You can create dust when
you cut, sand, drill or grind
materials such as wood,
paint, metal, concrete, cement, or
other masonry. This dust often
contains chemicals known to cause
cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm. Wear protective
gear.
This product is a part of a high
pressure system and the following
safety precautions must be followed at
all times along with any other existing
safety rules.
1. Read all manuals
included with this
product carefully. Be
!
DANGER
thoroughly familiar with the
controls and the proper use of the
equipment.
2. Only persons well acquainted with
these rules of safe operation should
be allowed to use the air tool.
Do not exceed the
maximum operating pressure of the air tool (90 psi).
This can reduce the life of the tool.
3. Do not exceed any pressure rating
of any component in the system.
Maximum operating pressure of 90
psi is measured at the tool inlet
while the tool is running. The
pressure drop between the
compressor and tool needs to be
compensated for at the compressor.
4. Disconnect the air tool from air
supply before changing tools or
attachments, servicing and during
nonoperation.
Safety glasses and ear
protection must be worn
during operation.

5. Do not wear loose fitting clothing,
scarves, or neck ties. Loose clothing
may become caught in moving
parts and result in serious personal
injury.
6. Do not wear jewelry when
operating any tool. Jewelry may
become caught in moving parts and
result in serious personal injury.
7. Do not depress trigger when
connecting the air supply hose.
8. Always use attachments designed
for use with air powered tools. Do
not use damaged or worn
attachments.
9. Never trigger the tool when not
applied to a work object.
Attachments must be securely
attached. Loose attachments can
cause serious injury.
10. Protect air lines from damage or
puncture.
11. Never point an air tool at oneself or
any other person. Serious injury
could occur.
12. Check air hoses for weak or worn
condition before each use. Make
sure all connections are secure.
Release all pressure from the
system before attempting to
install, service, relocate or
perform any maintenance.
13. Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight
and ensure equipment is in safe
working condition.

14. Do not put hands near or under
moving parts.
15. Always secure workpiece in a vise
or clamp.
Excessive exposure
to vibration,
working in awkward positions and
repetitive work motions can cause
injury to hands and arms. Stop using
any tool if discomfort, numbness,
tingling or pain occur and consult a
physician.
Operation
LUBRICATION
Proper lubrication is the owner’s
responsibility. Failure to lubricate the
air tool properly will dramatically
shorten the life of the tool and will
void the warranty.
This air tool
requires lubrication
before the initial use and before and
after each additional use.
Air tools require lubrication
throughout the life of the tool.
Campbell Hausfeld air tool oil
(ST127000AV) is recommended because
this oil cleans, lubricates and inhibits
rust all in one operation.
After an air tool
has been lubricated, oil will discharge through the
exhaust port during the first few
seconds of operation. Thus, the exhaust port must be covered with a
towel before applying air pressure.
Failure to cover the exhaust port can
result in serious injury.
1. Disconnect air supply.
2. Pour about 1/4 teaspoon of airtool
oil into air inlet.
3. Operate trigger lever to allow oil to
enter air motor.

Operating Instructions
4. Connect the air tool to the air
supply and cover the exhaust port
with a towel. Run the air tool for 7
to 10 seconds. Oil will discharge
from the exhaust port when air
pressure is applied.
SPEED ADJUSTMENT
The ratchet should never be used to
set the torque. Use a torque wrench to
set the torque.
When tightening,
do not torque
down the nuts or bolts with the
ratchet as typically done with a hand
wrench. This can damage the tool by
breaking parts in the ratchet
mechanism.
AIR TOOL SET-UP
PLEASE REFER TO AIR TOOL AND
SPRAY GUN SET-UP (IN170102AV) FOR
AIR SYSTEM HOOK-UP INSTRUCTIONS.
To remove nuts, turn the
forward/reverse dial to the right. To
install nuts, turn the forward/reverse
dial to the left. Reverse the procedure
if the threads are left-handed. Do not
overtighten the nuts.
NOTE: It is not recommended to install
a quick coupler between the air tool
and the leader (whip) hose.
Use of a whip hose
prevents
accidental triggering of the tool when
pressurized air is connected to the
system.
In addition, the tool’s vibration wears
out quick couplers prematurely.
Using fittings or air hoses which are
too small can create a pressure drop
and reduce the power of the tool. A
3/8” (I.D.) fitting with 1/4” NPT threads
is recommended. Most compressors are
shipped with a short, 1/4” I.D. hose.
For proper performance and more
convenience, use a 3/8” I.D. hose.
Hoses longer than 50 feet should have
a 1/2” I.D.

WARNING
!
WARNING
Never carry a tool
by the hose or pull
the hose to move the tool or a
compressor. Keep hoses away from
heat, oil and sharp edges. Replace any
hose that is damaged, weak or worn.
STORAGE
The air tool must be lubricated before
storing. Follow the air piston
lubrication instructions with an
exception to step 4. Only run the air
tool for 2 to 3 seconds instead of 7 to
10 seconds because more oil needs to
remain in the air tool when storing.
