2. Attach an air hose to the compressor’s air outlet.
Connect the air hose to the Air Valve Assembly (5)
of the Bottle Jack. Other components, such
as a connector and quick coupler, will make
operation more efcient, but are not mandatory.
WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY
FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:
Do not install a female quick coupler on the tool.
Such a coupler contains an air valve that will
allow the air tool to retain pressure and operate
accidentally after the air supply is disconnected.
Note: Air ow, and therefore tool performance, can
be hindered by undersized air supply components.
The air hose must be long enough to reach
the work area with enough extra length to
allow free movement while working.
3. Turn the tool’s throttle or switch to the off position;
refer to Operation section for description of controls.
Air Supply
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY
FROM EXPLOSION:
Use only clean, dry, regulated, compressed
air to power this tool. Do not use oxygen,
carbon dioxide, combustible gases, or any other
bottled gas as a power source for this tool.
1. Incorporate a lter, regulator with pressure gauge,
oiler, in-line shutoff valve, and quick coupler for
best service, as shown on Figure A on page 6
and Figure B on page 7. An in-line shutoff
ball valve is an important safety device because
it controls the air supply even if the air hose
is ruptured. The shutoff valve should be a
ball valve because it can be closed quickly.
Note: If an automatic oiler system is not used,
add a few drops of Pneumatic Tool Oil to the
airline connection before operation. Add a few
more drops after each hour of continual use.
4. Close the in-line shutoff valve between
the compressor and the tool.
5. Turn on the air compressor according to
the manufacturer’s directions and allow it
to build up pressure until it cycles off.
6. Adjust the air compressor’s output regulator
so that the air output is enough to properly
power the tool, but the output will not exceed
the tool’s maximum air pressure at any time.
Adjust the pressure gradually, while checking the
air output gauge to set the right pressure range.
7. Inspect the air connections for leaks.
Repair any leaks found.
8. If the tool will not be used at this time, turn off
and detach the air supply, safely discharge any
residual air pressure, and release the throttle
and/or turn the switch to its off position
to prevent accidental operation.
Note: Residual air pressure should not be present
after the tool is disconnected from the air supply.
However, it is a good safety measure to attempt to
discharge the tool in a safe fashion after disconnecting
to ensure that the tool is disconnected and unpowered.
SAFETY INFORMATION section at the
beginning of this manual including
all text under subheadings therein
before set up or use of this product.
Inspect tool before use, looking for
damaged, loose, and missing parts.
If any problems are found,
do not use tool until repaired.
