the cut the slug will be ejected, check before commencing the next hole. Make sure that no swarf
collects inside the cutter.

Our pneumatic motors are designed for an operation pressure of 4 -6 bar (65-90 PSI).
Service life and performance of the machines are decisively determined by:
a) The air purity
Blow the air hose clear before connecting it to the machine. Install dirt and water
separator upstream of the machine, if it is not possible to prevent the formation of rust
and water condensation in the air distribution lines.
b) The lubrication conditions and maintenance
see "Maintenance of pneumatic tools"
Only proper maintenance can ensure constant performance, reduction in wear and thus, a decrease
in operating costs and an increase in service life.
Our pneumatic tools are equipped for an operating pressure of 6 bar. A regulator setting for an
operating pressure of 4 bar is possible as well as expedient for grinding machines with a built-in
regulator so as to take full advantage of the speed prescribed for the corresponding grinding wheels.
Pneumatic tools should not run empty, because this results in heat and higher wear. The
compressed air should be clean and dry. This is guaranteed by a proper pneumatic system. Blow
through the pneumatic hose before connecting it. For the economical use of pneumatic tools. The
prescribed air quantities are necessary, i. e. , the line, armatures and hoses must have the required
cross sections so that the flow pressure remains constant. Proper lubrication is a must; for this reason,
our pneumatic tools usually have built-in oilers. Which are located between the inlet valve and the
motor, and which function in any position. In smaller and lighter hand tools, these oilers must often
be left out, because the machines would then be too heavy and not easy to manage. In such cases,
lubrication must be carried out by service units or by manual hose oilers. We recommend service units
for permanently installed workplaces (see accessories list). However, where longer hose lines are
necessary. line oilers built into the hose lines are more effective. The distance between the tool and
oiler should not be more than 5 m.
Most of pneumatic tools have located at the connection a lined-up screen, which is to be regularly
checked and cleaned.
After ending a working task, the machines are to be flushed with a thin oil, or protected some other
way against corrosion.
