5. Pressure drops.
7. Moisture blowing
out of tool exhaust.

compressor manual). b. Oil tool and
run until no water is evident. Oil tool

5. a. Be sure the hose is the proper size.
Tool using large volumes of air may
require a hose with an I.D. of 1/2 in.
or larger depending on the total
length of the hoses.
b. Do not use a multiple number of
hoses connected together with
quick-connect fittings. This causes
additional pressure drops and
reduces the tool power. Directly
connect the hoses together.
