THREE-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
This tool is warranted by the manufacturer to the original purchaser from the original
purchase date for three (3) years subject to the warranty coverage described herein.
This tool is warranted to the original user to be free from defect in material and
workmanship. If you believe that a tool is defective, return the tool with proper proof
of purchase to the point of purchase. If it is determined that the tool is defective and
covered by this warranty, the distributor will replace the tool or refund the
purchase price.
This warranty is void if: defects in materials or workmanship or damages result from
repairs or alterations which have been made or attempted by others or the
unauthorized use of nonconforming parts; the damage is due to normal wear, damage
is due to abuse (including overloading of the tool beyond capacity), improper
maintenance, neglect or accident; or the damage is due to the use of the tool after

CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. Flush the tool with air-tool oil or gum
solvent.
2. Lubricate the tool.
3. a. Adjust the regulator on the tool to
maximum setting.
b. Adjust the compressor regulator to tool
maximum of 90 PSI.
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 multiple 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.
