- If you experience numbness, tingling, pain or whitening of the skin in your fingers or hands, stop using the tool, inform your employer and consult a physician.
- Operate and maintain the tool as recommended to prevent an unnecessary increase in vibration levels.
- Do not use worn or ill-fitting sockets or extensions, as this is likely to cause a substantial increase in vibration levels.
- Support the weight of the tool in a stand, tensioner or balancer, if possible.
- Do not hold the tool too tightly to minimize the adverse health effects of vibration.
Additional safety instructions for pneumatic tools
- Air under pressure can cause severe injury. Always shut off the air supply, drain the hose of air pressure and disconnect the tool from the air supply when not in use, before changing accessories or when performing maintenance or repair work.
- Never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
- Always check for damaged or loose hoses and fittings.
- Cold air must be directed away from the hands.
- Do not exceed the maximum air pressure stated on the tool.
- Never carry the tool by the hose.

11. Tool
- You will require an air pressure of 90 psi, and an air flow according to specification.
- Warning: Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90 psi while operating the tool. Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the product life due to excessive wear, and may be dangerous, causing damage to property or personal injury.
- Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the tool.
- Clean the air inlet filter weekly.
- Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). The hose diameter should be 3/8″ I.D (internal diameter).
- Keep the hose away from sources of heat, oil and sharp edges. Check the hose for signs of wear and damage and make sure that all connections are secure.
Lubrication
- The use of an automatic filter-regulator-lubricator is recommended as it lengthens tool life and keeps the tool in sustained operation. The lubricator should be regularly checked and filled with air tool oil.
- Proper adjustment of the lubricator is performed by placing a sheet of paper next to the exhaust ports and holding the throttle open for approximately 30 seconds. The lubricator is properly set when a light stain of oil collects on the paper. Excessive amounts of oil should be avoided.
- It is most important that the tool be properly lubricated by keeping the lubricator filled and correctly adjusted. Without proper lubrication the tool will not work properly and parts will wear prematurely.
- Use the proper lubricant in the air line lubricator. The lubricator should be of low air flow or changing air flow type, and should be kept filled to the correct level. Use only recommended lubricants, specially made for pneumatic applications. Substitutes may harm the rubber compounds in the tool’s O-rings and other rubber parts.
- If a filter/regulator/lubricator is not installed on the air system, the tool should be lubricated at least once a day or after 2 hours of work with 2 to 6 drops of oil, depending on the work environment, directly through the male fitting in the tool housing.

-
Loss of power or problematic operation may be due to the following:
– Excessive drain on the air line.
– Moisture or blockage in the air pipe.
– Dirt accumulation on parts of the tool may also reduce performance. -
If the tool has an air strainer (located in the area of the air inlet), remove the air strainer and clean it.
-
When not in use, disconnect the tool from the air supply, clean the tool and store it in a safe and dry place that is inaccessible to children.
TROUBLESHOOTING
- If any of the following problems appear while the tool is in use, turn it off and disconnect it from the air supply immediately. Failure to heed this warning will result in serious personal injury.
- Disconnect the tool from the air supply before making any adjustments.

with dirt particles.
2. Power regulator is in the closed position.
3. Dirt is blocking the air flow.| 1. Check air inlet filter for blockage.
2. Pour air tool lubricating oil into air inlet as per instructions.
3. Repeat above as needed.
The tool does not work. Air flows normally from exhaust| 1. One or more motor
vanes stuck due to material build up.| 1. Pour air tool lubricating oil into
air inlet.
2. Tap motor housing gently with plastic mallet.
The tool will not shut off| 1. O-rings in the throttle valve are dislodged
from the seat inlet valve.| 1. Replace O-rings or send the tool to a service
center for repairs.
