LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
Do not store the tool in cold weather. Frost or ice can form on the operating valves or mechanisms and the tool may not operate correctly.
In cold weather operation (near or below freezing), DO NOT USE a permanent antifreeze such as ethylene glycol for a cold weather lubricant. This type of anitfreeze will damage
NOTE
Proper lubrication is the owner's re- sponsibility. Failure to lubricate the tool properly will dramatically shorten the life of the tool and void your warranty.
Your tool requires lubrication before you use it for the first time and before and after each additional use. If an Oiler is used, manual lubrication through the air inlet is not required on a daily basis. Lubrication prevents wear and prevents rust from forming.
1.Disconnect the air supply from the tool before manually lubricating.
2.Turn the tool so the air inlet is facing up and put one drop of DeVilbiss AC230 Air Tool Oil, high speed spindle oil, such as Unocal RX22, or
DO NOT OVER LUBRICATE AIR TOOL.
3.Wipe off excessive oil at the exhaust.
NOTE
Many air tool users find it convenient to use an Oiler to help provide oil circulation through tool. An Oiler also increases the efficiency and useful life of the tool. An oiler is recommended for tools that receive heavy or constant use. Check oil level in the oiler daily. (See Figure 2)
Many air tool users find it convenient to use a Filter to remove liquid and solid impuri- ties which can rust or "gum up" internal parts of the tool. A Filter also increases the efficiency and useful life of the tool. Drain water from the filter periodically. (See
Figure 3)
