6
• A pressure of 90 psi with a flow of 7.44 cfm is required. Too high an air
pressure will shorten the life of the tool due to excessive wear.
A typical airline layout is shown. If an automatic in-line filter/regulator/lubrica-
tor unit is used it will keep the tool in good condition, but should be regularly
checked and topped up with oil.
IMPORTANT: If a filter/lubricator unit is not used, the air tool should be lubri-
cated with 2 to 6 drops of oil, at least once a day or after 2 hours work,
depending upon the working environment. The oil can be inserted through
the airline connection fitting.
BEFORE USE
CONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY
WARNING: COMPRESSED AIR CAN BE DANGEROUS. ENSURE THAT YOU
ARE FAMILIAR WITH ALL PRECAUTIONS RELATING TO THE USE OF COM-
PRESSORS AND COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLIES.
Note: Ensure the compressor is turned off.
1. Remove the plastic blanking plug from the connection port of the tool as
shown.
2. Pour 2-3 drops of Clarke airline oil into the air inlet. This should be done
regardless of whether or not a lubricated air supply is to be used.
3. Connect a suitable hose to the tool as shown.
4. Connect the other end of the hose to the compressor. (A whip hose with a
quick fit coupling is available from your Clarke dealer).
5. Turn on the air supply and check for air leaks. Rectify any found before
proceding. The tool is now ready for use.
