PLACING TOOL IN SERVICE
LUBRICATION
Ingersoll–Rand No. 10 Ingersoll–Rand No. 28
Always use an air line lubricator with this tool.
We recommend the following Filter–Lubricator–Regulator
Unit:
For USA – No. C22–04–G00
For International – No. C26–C4–A29
Before starting the tool and after each two or three
hours of operation, unless the air line lubricator is used,
pour approximately 1.5 cc of Ingersoll–Rand No. 10 Oil
into the air inlet.
After each 40 hours of operation, or as experience indicates, inject about 0.5 cc of Ingersoll–Rand No. 28 Grease
into the Grease Fitting (32).
Whenever the Ratchet Head is removed from the power
unit, work some Ingersoll–Rand No. 28 Grease into the
Front Rotor Bearing (20) and Spindle Bearing (28). Coat
the Planet Gears (27) with a light film of Ingersoll–Rand
No. 28 Grease.
INSTALLATION
Air Supply and Connections
Always use clean, dry air . Dust–corrosive fumes and/or
excessive moisture can ruin the motor of an air tool. An
air line filter can greatly increase the life of an air tool.
The filter removes dust and moisture.
Low pressure (under 90 psig; 6.2 bar/620 kPa) reduces the
speed of air tools. Low pressure not only wastes time, but
also costs money. High pressure (over 90 psig; 6.2
bar/620 kPa) raises performance beyond the rated capacity
of the tool and could cause injury.
Make sure all hoses and fittings are the correct size and
are tightly secured. See Dwg. TPD905–1 for a typical
piping arrangement.
