REPLACEMENT PARTS:
Use only genuine parts from the manufacturer or distributor. Do not use modified parts or parts which will not give
equivalent performance to the original equipment.
Tighten all screws.
Keep contact arm moving smoothly.
ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE FOR SEALS:
When repairing a tool, make sure the internal parts are clean and lubricated. Use O-Ring lubricant on all O-Rings.
Coat each O-Ring with O-Ring lubricant before assembling. Use a small amount of oil on all moving surfaces and
pivots. After reassembly add a few drops of Air Tool Lubricant through the air line fitting before testing.
AIR PRESSURE AND VOLUME:
Air volume is as important as air pressure. The air volume supplied to the tool may be inadequate because of
undersize fittings and hoses, or from the effects of dirt and water in the system. Restricted air flow will prevent the tool
from receiving an adequate volume of air, even though the pressure reading is high. The results will be slow
operation, misfeeds or reduced driving power. Before evaluating tool problems for these symptoms, trace the air
supply from the tool to the supply source for restrictive connectors, swivel fittings, low points containing water and
anything else that would prevent full volume flow of air to the tool.

MAINTAINING THE PNEUMATIC TOOL

When working on air tools, note the warnings in this manual and use extra care
evaluating problem tools. Disconnect air supply and empty the magazine when
inspecting or maintaining the tool.
