Air Supply - Matco Tools MT2836 Instrucciones De Operación

FEATURES
• Pin clutch impact mechanism allows tool to be used in tight quarters wihout fear
of pinning hand against work.
• Locking shift knob prevents inadvertent direction changes.
• Matco exclusive ergonomic forward/reverse knob allows for easy transition.
• Tip valve throttle design allows for true variable speed performance.
• Great power to size and weight ratio for use in numerous applications such as the removal of steering arms,
water pumps, brake caliper bolts and alternators.
OPERATION
The MT2836 3/8" ratchet is designed to fasten and unfasten threaded
fasteners while operating under recommended conditions. Note the
directional setting of the reversing button before depressing the throttle.
Ensure body stance to be in excellent balance and have full control of the
tool before use. Be fully alert as sudden reaction torques and directional
changes may unexpectedly occur. Be aware that air ratchets are not
torque wrenches or pry bars. Joints and fasteners requiring a specific
torque must be checked with a torque wrench as the final step. Using the
air ratchet while the power is in the "off" position, to tighten or break-free
fasteners, can irreversibly damage its internal mechanism and will void
any remaining warranty.
Always turn off the air supply, drain hose of air pressure and detach
tool from air supply before installing, removing or adjusting any part or
accessory on this tool, or before performing any maintenance on this
tool.

AIR SUPPLY

Tools of this class operate on a wide range of air pressures. It is
recommended that air pressure of these tools measures 90
PSIG at the tool with the trigger fully depressed and no load
applied to the tool. Higher pressure and unclean air will shorten
tool life and may create a hazardous condition.
Water in the air line will cause damage to the tool. Drain water
from air lines and compressor prior to running tool. Clean the air
inlet filter screen weekly. The recommended hook-up procedure
can be viewed in Figure 1.
The air inlet (Figure 2), used for connecting air supply, has
standard 1/4" NPT American Thread.
Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually
long air hoses (over 25 feet). Minimum hose diameter should be
3/8" I.D. and fittings should have the same inside dimensions.
Ensure an accessible emergency shut off valve has been installed
in the air supply line and make others aware of its location.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Other factors outside the tool may cause loss of power or erratic
action. Reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the air line,
moisture or restrictions in air pipes or the use of hose connections
of improper size or poor conditions may reduce air supply. If
outside conditions are in order, and the tool still performs
erratically, disconnect tool from hose and take tool to your
nearest Matco authorized service center.
LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE
Lubricate the tool daily with a high quality grade of air tool oil. If no
air line oiler is used, run 1/2 ounce of oil through the tool. The oil
can be squirted into the tool air inlet Figure 2, or into the hose at
the nearest connection to the air supply, then run the tool. A rust
inhibitive oil is acceptable for air tools. Grease fitting on
yoke occasionally to ensure proper lubrication of the ratchet
mechanism.
WARNING
After an air tool has been lubricated, oil will discharge through
the exhaust port during the first few seconds of operation. The
exhaust port must be covered with a towel before applying air
pressure to prevent serious injury.
