Maintenance

Lubrication
The die grinder should be lubricated daily (or
before each use) with air tool oil through the air
inlet. During continual operation, it should be re-
oiled every 1 to 2 hours. This can be done with an
in-line oiler, or manually. If done manually,
proceed as follows:
1.
Disconnect air hose from tool.
2.
Place 4 or 5 drops of air tool oil into air inlet.
NOTE: Air tool oil not provided; it is available
at most major hardware and tool stores. SAE
#10 oil or sewing machine oil may be used
as a substitute. Do not use detergent oil.
3.
Re-connect air. Run die grinder at low
throttle without load for a few seconds to
distribute the oil throughout tool.
4.
When
finished
disconnect air hose. Wipe off housing with a
dry cloth. Place 4 or 5 drops of air tool oil into
air inlet; re-connect air and run tool for a few
seconds to distribute the oil. Disconnect air.
The die grinder has been pre-greased from the
manufacturer, and it is unnecessary to grease the
tool during its normal life.
Periodically apply 1 or 2 drops of air tool oil to
throttle lever and safety lever pivots, and work
lever to distribute the oil.
