TO PREVENT

Use only clean, dry, regulated,
compressed air to power tool.
Do not use oxygen, carbon
dioxide, combustible gases,
or any other bottled gas as a
power source for this tool.
1.
Figure 2
Incorporate an in-line oiler, shut-off
valve, regulator with pressure gauge,
and lter for best service, as shown
in the diagram above. An in-line
shutoff valve is an important safety
device because it can shut off air
ow if the air hose is ruptured.
(See Fig. 2.)
Note: If an automatic oiler system is not
used, add a few drops of Pneumatic
Tool Oil to the airline connection
before operation. Add a few more
drops after each hour of continual
use. Oiling location is engraved into
the bottom of the handle next to the
Screwdriver’s air inlet.
2. Attach an air hose to the
compressor’s air outlet. Connect
the air hose to the air inlet of the
tool. Other components, such as
a connector and quick coupler, will
make operation more efcient, but
are not required.
WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS
INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL
OPERATION: Do not install a
female quick coupler on the tool.
Such a coupler contains an air valve
that will allow the air tool to retain
pressure and operate accidentally
after the air supply is disconnected.
Note: Air ow, and therefore tool
performance, can be hindered by
undersized air supply components.
3. The air hose must be long enough
to reach the work area with enough
extra length to allow free movement
while working.
4. Make sure the tool’s throttle or
switch is in the off position; refer to
Operation section for description of
controls.
