Operation
1. The die grinder m ust be properly lubri cated
before operating. See “Maintenance”
section for lubricating instructions.
2. Remove t he protective c ap from the air inlet
(see Figure 2), and connect the air supply
hose. Make sure the air pressure is set to
90psi.
IMPORTANT: Connecting a quick-change
coupling directly to the Die Grinder is not
recommended, as vibration may cause the
connection to fail. Instead, add a leader
hose and install any qui ck-change c oupli ngs
farther down the li ne.
3. Loosen the collet nut using the two
wrenches on the flats of the collet nut and
spindle (Figur e 1). Keep the wrench on the
spindle stationary while turning the wrench
on the collet nut.
4. Install a gr inding point (not included) into the
collet and re-tighten the collet nut securely
using the wrenches.
5. Press forward on the saf ety lever and up on
the trigger (Figure 2). How f ar up the tri gger
is pressed determ ines rotati on speed of t he
tool.
Maintenance
The die grinder should be lubricated daily (or
before each use) wit h air tool oil through t he air
inlet. Dur ing c ontinual operat ion, it shoul d be reoiled every 3 to 4 hours. Thi s can be done either
with an in-line oiler, or manually. If done
manually, pr oc eed as follows:
1. Disconnect the air hose fr om the die grinder.
2. Place four or five drops of air tool oil* into
the air inlet (Fi gur e 3) .

3. Re-connect the air. Run the die grinder
without load f or a f ew seconds to distri bute
the oil throughout the tool.
4. When you are finished operating the die
grinder, before storing it disconnect the air
hose and place 4 or 5 drops of air tool oil
into the air inlet; re-connect the air and run
the tool for a few seconds to distribute the
oil.
5. Avoid storing the grinder in very humid
locations which prom otes rusting of internal
mechanisms, and always oil it before
storage.
Air Connection
1. Make sure that the ai r compressor suppli es
clean air at the correct CFM for the die
grinder.
Troubleshooting
2. Set air pressure to 90 psi.
Excess air pressure and/or
unclean air will shorten the tool’s life and
may create a hazardous situation.
3. Drain the water f r om the air c om pr essor tank
daily, as well as any conde nsation from t he
air lines. W ater in the air line may ent er the
tool and cause dam age.
4. Change filters on the air sy stem on a regular
basis.
5. Air line pressure should be increased
accordingl y to compensate f or ext ra long ai r
hoses (usually over 25 feet). I nsi de diameter
of the hose should be a minim um of 3/8”.
