CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. Flush the tool with air-tool oil or gum
solvent.
2. Lubricate the tool according to the
lubrication instructions in this manual.
3. a. Adjust the regulator on the tool to
maximum setting.
b. Adjust the compressor regulator to tool
maximum of 90 PSI/6.3 BAR.
4. Tighten and seal hose fittings if leaks are
found. Use sealing tape.
5. a. Be sure the hose is the proper size.Long
hose or tools using large volumes of air may
require a hose with an I.D. of 1/2 in. or larger
depending on the total length of the hoses.
b. Do not use a multiple number of hoses
connected together with quick-connect fittings.
This causes additional pressure drops and
reduces the tool power.
Directly connect the hoses together.
6. Replace rotor blade.
7. Water in tank: drain tank. (See air compressor
manual). Oil tool and run until no water is
evident. Oil tool again and run 1-2 seconds.
Follow proper lubrication procedures in this
manual.
