Using The Tool - Craftsman 235.185930 Owner's Manual

PLACING TOOL IN SERVICE
(continued)
• Do not remove any labels. Re-
place any damaged label.
• The use of a hose whip is rec-
ommended. A coupler con-
nected directly to the air inlet in-
creases tool bulk and de-
creases tool maneuverability.
• For maximum performance, the
coupler on the wall should be
the next size larger than the
coupler used on the tool. The
coupler closest to the tool
should not be less than the
proper air supply hose size.
