MAINTENANCE
WARNING: ALWAYS DISCONNECT TOOL FROM THE AIR SUPPLY BEFORE PERFORMING ANY
MAINTENANCE ON THE TOOL.
WARNING: Always make sure the tool is properly lubricated during operation. Proper
lubrication is shown in this instruction manual.
An in-line oiler (not included) is recommended to help increase tool life and keep the tool
properly lubricated. The in-line oiler should be regularly checked and filled with air tool oil as
needed. Proper adjustment of the in-line oiler can be performed by placing a sheet of paper
next to the tool's exhaust ports while holding the throttle completely open for 30 seconds.
When a light stain of oil collects on the paper, the oiler is properly adjusted. Excessive
amounts of oil should be avoided.
Recommended lubricants: air-tool oil or any other high grade turbine oil containing moisture
absorbent, rust inhibitors, metal wetting agents and an EP (Extreme Pressure) additive.
Consult your local retailer for further assistance in selecting air tool oil best suited for proper
lubrication.
