MAINTENANCE

• Before each use, check oil level by removing the Socket Head Screw located on top of the tool
body using the included 4mm hex key (FIG 3). If no oil level is visible, add several drops of air
tool oil until some oil can be seen. DO NOT OVERFILL. Replace screw and tighten securely.
• If tool is to be unused for an extended period, add 6 drops of air tool oil directly to the air inlet
then store the tool, handle up.
• With the air supply disconnected, periodically check that the backing pad is tight.
