Maintenance Instructions
Important: To keep tool safe a Preventative Maintenance Program is recommended whenever portable power tools are used. The program should include
inspection of air supply lines, air line pressure, proper lubrication and repair of tools. Refer to ANSI B186.1 for additional maintenance information.
•
Use only genuine Dynabrade replacement parts to insure quality. To order replacement parts, specify Model#, Serial# and RPM of your air tool.
•
It is strongly recommended that all Dynabrade rotary vane air tools be used with a Filter-Regulator-Lubricator to minimize the possibility of misuse due
to unclean air, wet air or insufficient lubrication. Dynabrade recommends the following: 10681 Air Filter-Regulator-Lubricator (FRL) – Provides accurate
air pressure regulation and two stage filtration of water contaminates.
•
Lubricate wick system through the angle gear oil fitting with 2-3 plunges for every 8 hours of use, to achieve maximum gear life. Important: Use only
the recommended angle gear oil for the wick system. Do not contaminate the wick with any other oil or grease product (order 95848 Gear
Oil and 95541 Gun).
•
Dynabrade recommends one drop of air lube per minute for each 10 SCFM (example: if the tool specification states 40 SCFM, set the drip rate on the
filter-lubricator to 4 drops per minute). Dynabrade Air Lube (P/N 95842: 1 pt 473 ml) is recommended.
Routine Preventative Maintenance:
•
Check free speed of right-angle grinder using a tachometer. This governor controlled right-angle grinder should be speed checked every 20 hours of
use or weekly, whichever occurs more frequently.
•
DO NOT disassemble the governor for any reason. Reorder correct speed – governor assembly (See Assembly Breakdown) and recheck free speed of
tool with a tachometer.
•
Inspect flanges regularly for nicks, cuts, sharp edges, flatness and runout. Replace damaged or worn flanges with genuine Dynabrade flanges.
•
Inspect wheel guard for wear or damage. Guards that are bent and severely worn or subject to a wheel breakage must be replaced.
•
Inspect grinding wheels before mounting. Do not mount wheels that are damaged or cracked.
•
Check grinding wheel - speed rating. Rating on wheel must be greater than the tool speed marked on the housing.
•
If grinding wheel breakage occurs, investigate to determine the cause and correct before issuing tool for work.
•
Mineral spirits are recommended when cleaning the tool and parts. Do not clean tool or parts with any solvents or oils containing acids, esters,
ketones, chlorinated hydrocarbons or nitro carbons.
•
DO NOT clean or maintain tools with chemicals that have a low flash point (example: WD-40
®
).
•
A Motor Tune-Up Kit (P/N 96532) is available which includes high wear and medium wear motor parts.
•
Air tool labels must be kept legible at all times, if not, reorder label(s) and replace. User is responsible for maintaining specification information i.e.:
Model #, S/N, and RPM. (See Assembly Breakdown)
•
Blow air supply hose out prior to initial use.
•
Visually inspect air hoses and fittings for frays, visible damage and signs of deterioration. Replace damaged or worn components.
•
Refer to Dynabrade's Warning/Safety Operating Instructions Tag (Reorder No. 95903) for safety information.
After maintenance is performed on tool, add a few drops of Dynabrade Air Lube (P/N 95842) to the air line and start the tool a few times to lubricate air motor.
Check for tool vibration before mounting abrasive wheel accessory.
Handling and Storage:
•
Use of tool rests, hangers and/or balancers is recommended.
•
Protect tool inlet from debris (see Notice below).
•
DO NOT carry tool by air hose or near the tool throttle lever.
•
Protect reinforced type 27 depressed center wheel from exposure to water, solvents, high humidity, freezing temperature and
extreme temperature changes.
•
DO NOT USE type 27 grinding wheels that have been dropped or show signs of cracks, nicks or other defects.
•
Store accessories in protective racks or compartments to prevent damage.
Notice
All Dynabrade motors use the highest quality parts and metals available and are machined to exacting tolerances. The failure of quality pneumatic motors
can most often be traced to an unclean air supply or the lack of lubrication. Air pressure easily forces dirt or water contained in the air supply into motor
bearings causing early failure. It often scores the cylinder walls and the rotor blades resulting in limited efficiency and power. Our warranty obligation is
contingent upon proper use of our tools and cannot apply to equipment which has been subjected to misuse such as unclean air, wet air or a lack of
lubrication during the use of this tool.
