Poorly maintained and lubricated tools can fail unexpectedly.
Keep tool properly lubricated and in good repair at all times. Use only Sioux Air Motor Oil No. 288. See the tool's
information sheet to find out what other greases and oils to use. Do not drop the end of the hose on the floor
where it will pick up dirt and transport it into the tool. See information sheet for any additional maintenance
requirements.
Unexpected tool failures can cause injury.
Air hoses can come loose from power tools and whip.
Inspect and do not use tools with loose or damaged air hoses or fittings.
Whipping air hoses can cause injury.
Air hoses that are not oil resistant or are not rated for the working pressure can burst.
Make sure that all air hoses are oil resistant and rated for the working pressure.
Air hoses that burst can cause injury.
Tools not operated at proper air pressure can operate erratically.
Do not exceed a maximum air pressure of 90 psig/6.2 bar or as stated on the tool's nameplate or operating
instructions. Use an air regulator to maintain proper air pressure.
Erratic operation in power tools can cause injury.
Improperly repaired tools perform unpredictably.
Repair tools at an Authorized Sioux Service Center.
Tools that perform unpredictably can cause injury.
Tools left connected to the air supply can start unexpectedly.
Always remove tool from air supply and activate trigger to bleed air line before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or doing any maintenance or service on tool. Make it a habit to check to see that all
adjusting keys and wrenches have been removed from tool before turning it on.
Tools starting unexpectedly and flying keys and wrenches can cause injury.
Working in poorly lit areas makes it hard to see hazards.
Keep work area well lit.
Poorly lit work areas can cause injury.
Children are attracted to work areas.
Keep children away. All visitors must keep a safe distance away from work area.
Children in work areas can be injured.
Unauthorized or untrained personnel can misuse unattended tools.
Store idle tools in a dry, high or locked-up place, out of the reach of children.
Misused tools can cause injury.
Tools with the actuator left in the "ON" position when an unexpected air pressure loss occurs can start unexpectedly when
the air pressure is restored.
Release the actuator if an unexpected loss of air pressure occurs.
Unexpected tool starts can cause injury.
Tools with the actuator left in the "on" position can cause unexpected starts when the tool is connected to the air supply.
Be sure actuator is off before hooking up air.
Unexpected starts can cause injury.
The use of any accessory with this tool not provided or specified by Sioux Tools can perform unpredictably.
Use only accessories provided or specified by Sioux Tools.
Tools that perform unpredictably can cause injury.
When disposing of a tool, do it in a way that does not harm personnel or the environment.
INTENDED USE
This tool is intended to be used with drill bits for drilling holes in wood, metal and other materials.
AIR SUPPLY
The efficiency and life of this tool depend on the proper supply of clean, dry air at a maximum of 90 PSI. The use of an air line filter,
pressure regulator, and lubricator is recommended.
Before connecting to tools, blow out the air line to remove water and dirt that may have accumulated.
HOSE AND HOSE CONNECTIONS
The air supply hose recommended is 3/8" (10mm) I.D. If an extension hose is necessary, use 1/2" (13mm) ID hose with couplings not
less than 3/8" (10mm) I.D.
LUBRICATION
For maximum performance and tool life, an air line lubricator, set to deliver 3 drops per minute, is recommended. SIOUX No. 288 Air
Motor Oil is recommended.
If an airline lubrication is not used, it is recommended that the tool be oiled daily before use to improve performance. Add 2-4 drops of air
motor oil and run the tool for 10-20 seconds to distribute oil through the tool.
Lubricate the gears through the grease fitting with Sioux 1232A grease after 100 hours of operation.
