AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS
Do not use oxygen, combustible gases, or bottled gases as a power source for this tool as the
tool may explode, possibly causing injury.
Do not use supply sources which can potentially exceed 200 PSI (13.8 bar) as tool may burst, possibly causing
injury.
The connector on the tool must not hold pressure when air supply is disconnected. If a wrong fitting is used,
the tool can remain charged with air after disconnecting and thus will be able to after the air line is disconnected
possibly causing injury.
Always disconnect air supply:
1) Before making adjustments;
2) When servicing the tool;
3) When tool is not in use;
4) When moving to a different work area, as accidental actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.

INSTALLATION
AIR SUPPLY
The recommended hook-up is shown in Figure A. Pneumatic tools operate on a wide range of air
pressures. For maximum efficiency and longer tool life, the pressure of the air supplied to these tools MUST not
exceed the rated PSI at the tool when the tool is running. Using a higher than rated pressure will cause faster
wear and drastically shorten the tool's life. A higher air pressure can also cause an unsafe condition and explo-
sion.The inside diameter of the hose should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 25
feet). Minimum hose diameter should be 3/8" I.D. and fittings should have 1/4" NPT thread. The use of air line
lubricators and air line filters is recommended to prevent water in the line that can damage the tool. Drain the
air tank daily. Clean the air inlet filter screen on at least a weekly schedule to remove accumulated dirt or other
matter that can restrict air flow. The tool's air inlet used for connecting an air supply has standard 1/4" NPT
American thread.
SAFETY RULES FOR PNEUMATIC TOOLS
1) Inspect the air hose for cracks or other problems. Replace the hose if worn.
2) Never point an air hose at another person.
3) Disconnect the tool when not in use, or before performing service or changing accessories.
4) Use proper hoses and fittings. Never use quick change couplings attached to the tool. Instead, add a hose and
coupling between the tool and the air supply.
