Grizzly G6050 instruction manual Oiling Nailer, Cleaning Nailer

Oiling Nailer

The Model G6050 is considered an oil-less model. This means it features a teflon pis- ton ring that does not require oil to operate. However, periodic applications of oil will extend the useful life of the piston assem- bly.

Special oil has been included with you new Grizzly Nailer. Periodically place one drop of oil in the nailer air inlet (as shown in Figure 6). After oiling, wipe off any excess oil near the nailer exhaust to avoid dust build-up. When the oil that was included with the nailer has been completely used, replace with Grizzly Model G2820 Pneumatic Tool Oil.

Another option to manual oiling would be to install a lubricator in your air compressor line. If your air compressor line already has a lubricator, then regular lubrication of your nailer will not be necessary. Just make sure there is always oil in the lubricator.

As mentioned before, the best option is to install a filter/lubricator/regulator unit such as the Grizzly Model H2333 in your air line.

NOTICE

Too much oil in the nailer will ruin the O-rings!

Cleaning Nailer

Use a good solvent to clean the nose assembly of the nailer. Always be sure that the nailer is dry before using it again.

Do not allow dust, chips, sand, etc. into the air connectors or into the body of the nail- er; this may result in leaks and damage to the nailer and the air fittings.

Never use gasoline or other flamma- ble liquids to clean this tool. Vapors in the tool may ignite, causing the tool to explode. Ignoring this warning may lead to serious personal injury or even death!

Always disconnect air from nailer whenever servicing! During mainte- nance, a nailer connected to air may fire accidentally, causing serious personal injury!
