Grizzly H3258 User Manual

To install the Model H3258 to your pneumatic device:

1. Disconnect the compressor system from the

power source!

2. Drain the air pressure out of the tank and lines

before connecting the Model H3258 to your air line.

3. Mount the Model H3258 (in the upright position shown in Figure 1) on a wall close to the area of air tool operation, using the wall mount guide holes. You can also connect it directly onto the compressor shut off valve. Note—Place the

Model H3258 away from direct sun or hazardous materials.

When installed in an air system, the Model H3258 removes micro-particles and moisture droplets, lubricates your air tools, and regulates air flow.

5. Connect the air line (A) to the line-IN 1⁄4" NPT

threads (B) on the Model H3258 as shown in

Figure 2. Note—Use as short of an air line as possible, with minimal bends, to maintain an accurate working pressure.

6. Thread on a male connector (D) to the Line

“OUT” threads (C) followed by a quick coupler (E) as shown in Figure 2.

7. The quick coupler will accept a hose

connector (F) that attaches to the air hose (G) going to your tool.

8. Fill the oil cup to the designated fill level with

air tool oil.

9. When the set up is complete and the fittings

are secure, start your air compressor and let the air pressure build to the operating level.

10. Check for air leaks along the line by using

soapy water. If there are leaks present, disconnect the line on both sides of the leak. Reseal the leaking fittings with teflon tape and reconnect the line.

If you need additional help with this procedure, call our service department at: (570) 546-9663.

4. Connect a 1⁄4" NPT air line (A), in Figure 2, to the shut-off valve on your air compressor. Seal all the fittings with teflon tape to prevent leaks and product failure.

INSTALL THIS SYSTEM AS CLOSE TO THE AIR

TOOL AS POSSIBLE FOR BEST PERFORMANCE!

To adjust the regulator air pressure on the Model H3258:

1. When the air tank has reached operating pres-

sure, pull the regulator knob on the Model H3258 up to unlock it (Figure 3).

2. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease the pressure (Figure 3). The maximum pressure for this regulator is 150 PSI. DO NOT exceed this maximum setting.

3. Once the desired PSI level is set, press the knob back down into the locked position (Figure 3).

ADJUSTING REGULATOR

To maintain your Model H3258 in proper working condition:

1. Always disconnect the power from the air sup-

ply and release the air pressure from the tank and air lines before performing any maintenance.

2. Never let the water collect past the maximum

drainage line. Drain out the water by opening the drain valve located at the bottom of the filter housing (Figure 1).

3. Clean the transparent polycarbonate water

and oil cups with a clean, dry cloth. DO NOT use any chemical that would be hazardous to the polycarbonate material.

MAINTENANCE

Never use the lubricator with a spray gun or spray nozzle.

To adjust the lubrication on the Model H3258:

1. Turn the needle valve clockwise for less oil

drip and counter-clockwise for more oil drip. (Figure 4). Note—Refer to the tool manufac-

turer for oil drip requirements.

2. After the needle valve has been set, the air flow will also regulate the oil flow. (The more air flow, the more oil flow and the less air flow, the less oil flow.)

3. Before filling the oil reserve, release all air

pressure in the tank and lines, then remove the cap screw above the oil reservoir shown in

Figure 4.

4. Fill the oil cup between the minimum and max-

imum level marks on the side of the bowl.

5. Replace the cap screw.

Certain chemicals, household cleaners, solvents, and fumes will attack polycarbonate material and cause bowl failure. Avoid using paint thinner, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, kerosene and other organic solvents.
