CLEANING & LUBRICATION
Cleaning
Use a good solvent to clean the nose
assembly of the stapler. Always be sure
that the stapler is dry before using it
again.
Do not allow dust, chips, sand, etc.
into the air connectors or into the body
of the stapler; this may result in leaks
and damage to the stapler and the air
couplings.
Never clean this tool with gasoline
or other flammable liquids. Vapors
in the tool may ignite, causing
the tool to explode. Ignoring
this warning may lead to serious
personal injury or even death!
Lubricating
Standard pneumatic tool oil has been
included with your new Shop Fox stapler
to help maintain its useful life. Place two
to six drops of oil in the stapler air inlet
(as shown in Figure 11) before every use,
or after 2 hours of continuous use.
Wipe off any excess oil near the stapler
exhaust to avoid dust build-up. When the
oil that was included with the stapler has
been completely used, replace with a
quality pneumatic tool oil.
Another option to manual oiling would
be to install a lubricator in your air
compressor line. If your air compressor
line already has a lubricator, then regular
lubrication of your stapler will not be
necessary. Just make sure there is always
oil in the lubricator.
