Maintenance table

Following the maintenance instructions specified in this document will provide this high-quality product with long and trouble-free operation. Disconnect the appliance from the compressed air source for maintenance and treatment. To ensure long and trouble-free working of your tacker/nailer, it is necessary to clean it every day and regularly lubricate it. For this purpose, special tool oil should only be used:

Via oil mist lubricator| A complete maintenance unit includes an oil mist lubricator and is fitted on the compressor.
---|---
Via lubricator on the piping| In the immediate vicinity of the appliance (app. 50 cm distance), a
lubricator sufficiently providing the appliance with oil is installed on the lubricator piping.
Manually| If your appliance has no maintenance unit or lubricator on piping, 3-5 oil drops must be added to the compressed air connection before the pneumatic appliance is put into operation. If the pneumatic appliance has been out of service for several days, 5-10 oil drops must be added to the compressed air connection before
switching the appliance on. Store your pneumatic appliances only in dry rooms.

Lubricate the appliance with special oil for pneumatic appliances using an extension if there has been a long operation break.
Store the appliance in a cleaned, dry, dust-free condition and at temperatures above 5° C.
