Operation

Lubrication

If the tool is not used with an in-line lubrication system on the air supply it is necessary to periodically lubricate the tool with air tool lubricant.

Under low use, lubricate once a day. Under heavy use, lubricate twice a day. To lubricate, insert 2-3 drops of lubricant into the air supply fitting attached to the tool handle, see figure 2. Using to much oil will cause it to collect in the tool and be noticeable in the exhaust.

Use only the air tool lubricants supplied with the tool or specified by BOSCH. Do

not use other lubricants as they may damage the tool.

Do not use detergent oil, WD-40, transmission fluid, motor oil, or other lubricants not specifically designated as air tool lubricants. These lubricants will cause accelerated wear to the seals, o-rings, and bumpers in the tool, resulting in poor tool performance and frequent maintenance.

BOSCH recommended lubricants: 10W Pneumatic Tool Oil, Fuchs Air Lube 10W/NR.
