Do not use the tool if the Trigger e.
does not turn the tool on or off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled
with the Trigger (3) is dangerous and
must be repaired. Do not use the tool
if the lock mechanism cannot lock the
Trigger in the “OFF” position.
Service
Tool service must be performed a.
only by qualied repair personnel.
When servicing a tool, use only b.
identical replacement parts. Use
only authorized parts.
Disconnect the tool from the air f.
source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing the tool. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool unintentionally. Turn
off and detach the air supply, safely
discharge any residual air pressure,
and let the Trigger (3) return to its
“OFF” position.
Store the tool when it is idle out of g.
reach of children and other untrained people. A tool is dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain the tool with care. h. Keep a
cutting tool sharp and clean. A properly maintained tool, with sharp cutting edges reduces the risk of binding
and is easier to control.
Use only the lubricants supplied c.
with the tool or specied by the
manufacturer.
Air source
a. Never connect to an air
source that is capable of
exceeding 200 psi. Over
pressurizing the tool may
cause bursting, abnormal operation,
breakage of the tool or serious injury
to people. Use only clean, dry,
regulated compressed air at the rated
pressure or within the rated pressure
range as marked on the tool. Always
verify prior to using the tool that the
air source has been adjusted to the
rated air pressure or within the rated
air-pressure range.
Check for misalignment or bind-i.
ing of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other condition that
affects the tool’s operation. If dam-
aged, have the tool serviced before
using. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained tools. There is a
risk of bursting if the tool is damaged.
Use only accessories that are j.
identied by the manufacturer for
the specic tool model. Use of an
accessory not intended for use with
the specic tool model, increases the
risk of injury to people.
Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide, b.
combustible gases or any bottled
gas as an air source for the tool.
Such gases are capable of explosion
and serious injury to people.

Maintenance, Lubrication, and
Cleaning
Note: These procedures are in addition to
the regular checks and maintenance
explained as part of the regular
operation of the air-operated tool.
Daily - Air Supply Maintenance: 1.
Everyday, perform maintenance
on the air supply according to
the component manufacturers’
instructions. The lubricator’s oil
level needs to be maintained and
the moisture lter must be regularly
drained. Performing routine
maintenance on the air supply will
allow the tool to operate more safely
and will also reduce wear on the tool.
Daily - Tool Maintenance: 2.
Apply several drops of pneumatic tool
oil into the Quick Connector of the Air
Router (if inline oiler is not used).
