Maintenance
Lubricate at the beginning of the sanding task. Place one or two drops of pneumatic tool oil directly into the air fitting as shown in Figure 5.
Figure 5. Lubricating directly into air fitting.
Considerable caution must be used with an inline lubricator set up, as excess oil will be expelled from the sander onto the workpiece. If you must use an inline lubricator, monitor the exhaust port for oil emissions to avoid spraying oil on your workpiece.
Before installing the sanding disc, run the sander for a few minutes to eject excess oil, then wipe the tool down with a clean rag and begin sanding. Oil the tool after use or storage.
Service
