DISCONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY
1. Do not disconnect the air supply hose until the compressor has been shut
down and the compressed air released.
2. Refer to the compressor instruction manual for the procedure to shut down
and release the compressed air.
3. Once the pressure has been released, disconnect the air supply hose from
the tool.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE AIR TOOL IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE
AIR SUPPLY BEFORE STARTING ANY CLEANING, OR MAINTENANCE
PROCEDURES.
DAILY
1. Before use, drain water from the air tank, air line and compressor.
2. Pour a few drops of CLARKE airline oil, into the air inlet. This should be
carried out regardless of whether or not an in-line mini oiler is used. If an in-
line mini oiler is not used, this procedure should be repeated after every
two to three hours of use.
CLEANING
1. Keep the body of the tool clean and free from debris.
2. Grit or gum deposits inside the tool may also reduce its efficiency. This
condition can be corrected by cleaning out the air strainer inside the air
inlet, and flushing out the tool with gum solvent or oil, or failing this, the
motor may require dismantling. This is better left to your Clarke dealer.
SERVICE AND REPAIR
If the tool runs erratically or becomes inefficient although the air supply is in
good order, it may be necessary to dismantle the air motor and replace any
worn or damaged parts. Such servicing and repair work should be carried out
by a qualified service technician.
PERFORMANCE
Please note that factors other than the tool may effect its operation and
efficiency such as reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the airline
moisture or restrictions in the air-line, or the use of connectors of improper size
or poor condition which will reduce air supply.
**Clarke Air Line Oil (part no. 3050825) is available from your CLARKE dealer.
