Initial Inspection of a New Tool When a new tool is delivered to your facility, it is important to inspect the tool for any signs of damage that may have occurred during shipping. - Page 10 Example: Tool rated at 6000 R.P.M. 90% of 6000 (.90 x 6000) = 5400 95% of 6000 (.95 x 6000) = 5700 The tool should run between 5400 and 5700 when tested with a tachometer. Mounting Abrasives The mounting of the abrasive used with the tool is very important to ensure safety for the operator and proper functioning of the tool.

All Top Cat ® pneumatic tools are designed to operate at 90 PSI (6.2 bar) while the tool is running. The tool should never be run if the pressure should exceed 90 PSI (6.2 bar).
