MAINTENANCE
p WARNING! Ensure you disconnect the tool from the air supply system before attempting any service or maintenance.
5.1.
Maintain the tool with care. Keep it oiled for optimum performance.
5.2.
Lubricate the air tool daily with a high quality air tool oil (Sealey No. ATO/500 or ATO/1000) either via an oiler in the air supply system
or by placing a few drops into the riveter air inlet immediately before use.
5.3.
Store the tool in a safe, dry, secure environment.
5.4.
Factors that may inhibit performance:
Loss of power or erratic action may be caused by reduced compressor output, an excessive drain on the air line, moisture or restrictions
in air pipes or the use of hose connections of incorrect size. Grit or gum deposits in the tool may cut power and can be corrected by
flushing out the tool with gum solvent oil or an equivalent de-greaser. If all external conditions are in order, disconnect the tool from the
air supply, disassemble and replace any worn or damaged parts with Sealey original parts. Clean all parts, reassemble and lubricate.
Alternatively, take the tool to your nearest authorised service agent.
