Lubrication
Air tools require lubrication throughout
the life of the tool. The air motor
and bearing uses compressed air to
power the tool. Because moisture in
compressed air will rust the air motor,
you must lubricate the motor daily. An
inline oiler is recommended.
To lubricate the air motor manually:
• Disconnect the tool from the air
supply holding it so the air inlet
faces up,
Depress throttle control lever and
place one to two drops of air tool
oil in the air inlet Depressing
the throttle control lever helps
circulate oil in the motor. NOTE:
Use SAE #10 weight oil if air tool
oil is not available.
Connect the tool to an air source,
cover the exhaust end with a
towel and run for a few seconds.
Any excess
oil in the
motor is immediately
expelled from the exhaust
port. Always direct exhaust
port away from people or
objects.
_ Failure to
lubricate the
tool at the air inlet will void
your warranty.
