Servicing the Tool
• Daily, before use or when first putting the tool into service, pour a few drops of clean, light lubricating oil into the air inlet of the tool
if no lubricator is fitted on air supply. If the tool is in continuous use, the air hose should be disconnected from the main air supply
and the tool lubricated every two to three hours.
• Check for air leaks. If damaged, hoses and couplings should be replaced.
• If there is no filter on the pressure regulator, bleed the air line to clear it of accumulated dirt or water before connecting the air hose
to the tool. If there is a filter, drain it.
• Check that the nose assembly or swivel head is correct for the fastener to be placed.
• Check the stroke of the tool meets the minimum specification (page 5). The last step of the Priming Procedure on page 25 explains
how to measure the stroke.
• Either a stem collector or a stem deflector must be fitted to the tool unless using a swivel head is fitted.
• Check that base cover 36 is fully tightened onto body 34.
• Ensure that rotary valve 60 is correctly adjusted for fastener retention (see ‘Operating Procedure’ page 7).
• Dismantle and clean the nose assembly with special attention to the jaws. Lubricate with Moly lithium grease before assembling.
• Check for oil leaks and air leaks in the air supply hose and fittings.
Grease can be ordered as a single item, the part number is shown in the service kit page 18.
