3. PREPARING TOOL FOR USE
3.1.
Air Supply
3.1.1.
Ensure the drill trigger is in the "off" position before connecting to the air supply.
3.1.2.
You will require an air pressure of 90psi, and an air flow according to specification.
p WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90psi while operating the drill.
3.1.3.
Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the product life due to xcessive wear, and may be
dangerous causing damage and/or personal injury.
3.1.4.
Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the drill.
3.1.5.
Clean air inlet filter weekly. Recommended hook-up procedure is shown in fig.1.
3.1.6.
Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres).
The minimum hose diameter should be 1/4" I.D. and fittings must have the same inside dimensions.
3.1.7.
Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hose for wear, and make certain that all
connections are secure.
3.2.
Couplings.
3.2.1.
Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the drill. To overcome this,
connect a leader hose to the drill. A quick change coupling may then be used to connect the leader hose
to the air line recoil hose. See fig.1 & 2.

working correctly.
4.2.
Operating
4.2.1. The drill direction can be changed by switching the thumb control on the side of the drill (fig.3A).

4.2.4. DO NOT apply excessive pressure, let the drill do the work for you. Start the drill and bring the drill to the
work surface.
4.2.5. DO NOT allow drill to run in "idle rotation" for an
extended period of time as this will reduce bearing
life.
