TIPS
1. Check air line pressures and volumes. Too little of either weakens the tool. A
minimum of 60 psi and 20 cfm are necessary. 90 to 100 psi are the preferred line
pressures. Airline must not be smaller than 3/8”.
2. Brush size is critical. Too large or too small can cause operating problems.
3. Lubrication is critical. One drop per second is recommended, slightly more for the
first hour of operation.
4. Clean the air pulsator after use. Wash using a clean oil and then dip in Shell Ensis
Oil L or equivalent positive rust preventing oil.
