5. MAINTENANCE

Regular servicing should be carried out and a comprehensive inspection performed annually or every
500,000 cycles, whichever is sooner.
I M P O R T A N T
The employer is responsible for ensuring that tool maintenance instructions are given to the
appropriate personnel. The operator should not be involved in maintenance or repair of the
tool unless properly trained..
DAILY
• Daily, before use or when first putting the tool into service, pour a few drops of clean, light lubricating
oil into the air inlet of the tool if no
lubricator is fitted on air supply. If the tool is in continuous use, the air hose should be disconnected
from the main air supply and the tool
lubricated every two to three hours.
• Check for air leaks. If damaged, hoses and couplings should be replaced by new items.
• If there is no filter on the pressure regulator, bleed the air line to clear it of accumulated dirt or water
before connecting air hose to tool.
• Check that the nose assembly is correct.
• Check the stroke of the tool is adequate to place selected insert. (See stroke adjustment).
• Inspect the drive screw in the nose assembly for wear or damage. If any, renew.
WEEKLY
• Check for oil leaks and air leaks on air supply hose and fittings.
M A I N T E N A N C E
Every 500,000 cycles the tool should be completely dismantled and components replaced where worn,
damaged or when recommended. All 'O' rings and seals should be replaced with new ones and
lubricated with Molykote 55M grease before assembling.
The airline must be disconnected before any servicing or dismantling is attempted unless specifically
instructed otherwise.
It is recommended that any dismantling operation be carried out in clean conditions.
Before proceeding with dismantling, empty the oil from the tool. Remove oil plug 42, oil seal washer 43.
Prior to dismantling the tool it is necessary to remove the nose assembly. For simple removal instructions
see the nose assemblies section.
For total tool servicing we advise that you proceed with dismantling of sub-assemblies in the order
shown below.
