Air Quality - Atlas Copco RRF31-01 Product Instructions

RRF31-01
• Install chisel (j) and chisel retainer (i), see figure.
• Before use – Put a few drops of air tool oil through the air inlet.
• Connect the machine to the air line according to figure. If a quick coupling
is used, it should be separated from the machine by a whip hose (length 0.5
m).
• The compressed air should be free from water and dirt as far as possible.
The installation of an Atlas Copco filter/regulator/lubricator air preparation
set is recommended to ensure a high quality air supply to the machine. For
lubrication, only use high quality air tool oils.

Air quality

• For optimum performance and maximum machine life we recommend the
use of compressed air with a maximum dew point of +10°C. We also rec-
ommend the installation of an Atlas Copco refrigeration-type air dryer.
• Use a separate air filter of type Atlas Copco FIL. This filter removes solid
particles larger than 15 microns and also removes more than 90 % of liquid
water. The filter must be installed as close as possible to the machine/equip-
ment and prior to any other air preparation unit such as REG or DIM (please
see Air Line Accessories in our main catalogue). Blow out the hose before
connecting.
Models which need air lubrication:
• The compressed air must contain a small quantity of oil.
We strongly recommend that you install an Atlas Copco oil-fog lubricator
(DIM). This should be set according to air consumption by the air line tool
according to the following formula:
L = Air consumption (litre/s).
(May be found in our sales literature).
D = Number of drops per min (1 drop = 15 mm
L* 0.2 = D
this applies to the use of long work cycle air line tools. A single point lubri-
cator type Atlas Copco Dosol can also be used for tools with short running
cycles.
Information about Dosol settings may be found under Air Line Accessories
in our main catalogue.
