Tools operate on a wide range of
air pres s ures. We recommend that
air pressure mea s ures 90 psig at
the air inlet with the trigger fully
depressed and no load applied to
tool. Low pressure (less than 90
psig 6.2 bar) re d uc e s the speed and
performance of all air tools. High
pres s ure (over 115 psig 8.0 bar)
exceeds the rated capacity of the
tool, which will short e n tool life
and could cause injury.
Always use clean, dry air. Dust,
corrosive fumes, and/or water in
the air line will cause damage to
the tool. Drain water from air lines
LUBRICATION
Lubricate the air motor daily with
NAPA high quality air tool oil. If
no air line oiler is used, run 1/2 oz.
of oil through the tool. The oil can
be squirted into the tool air inlet
or into the hose at the nearest
con n ec t ion to the air supply, then
OPERATION
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.

The air inlet used for con n ect i ng

should be increased to compensate
for unusually long air hoses (over
25 feet). Minimum hose diameter
should be 3/8" I.D. Fittings should
have the same inside dimensions
and should be tightly secured.
Ensure an accessible emergency
shut off valve has been installed in
the air supply line and make others
aware of its location.
run the tool. A rust inhibitive oil is
acceptable for air tools. Overfilling
will cause a re d uc t ion in the power
of the tool.
WARNING: After an air tool has
been lubricated, oil will discharge
uneven metal surfaces. Needles
adapt themselves to flat, curved
and uneven surfaces.
Excessive speed reduction indicates
too much force being applied to
the work surface.
Apply moderate hand pressure
to the tool and allow the tools
accessories to do the work.
