DO NOT OPERATE THE LONG REACH AIR TOOL
WITHOUT THE PROPER SUPPORT SPRING
SECURED TO THE ATTACH FITTING IF THE AIR
HOSE IS NOT OF THE WIRE REINFORCED TYPE.
USE OF THE TOOL WITHOUT THE SUPPORT
SPRING PROPERLY ATTACHED CAN RESULT IN
DAMAGE TO THE HOSE WHERE IT IS CRIMPED TO
THE ATTACH FITTING. SUCH AN OCCURRENCE
CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR
PERSONAL INJURY.
3) The air hose can be of a wire reinforced
construction. This type of material incorporates an
internal wire reinforcement similar to that of a hydraulic
hose. A wire reinforced air hose does not utilize an
external support spring, FIGURE 2.

5) Insert the attach fitting into the manifold and secure
tight. There is no gasket or O type ring utilized for
sealing purposes. Inspect the attach fitting and
manifold area for proper fit and security. If you feel the
attach fitting and manifold do not have proper fit and
security, do not proceed further with the assembly
process. Contact the Customer Service Department for
assistance. There is no charge for this service.
6) Install the coupling device of choice to the open end
of the hose assembly. The coupling device must be of
the following type:
a) Male, quick type design of sufficient capacity to
couple with the appropriate female design. The female
coupler will immediately stop the airflow from the
compressed air source in the event that it becomes
disconnected for any reason while the air tool is in use,
