Compressed Air

System

The Model H8253 is designed to be operated between 70-90 PSI using clean, dry, regulated, compressed air. DO NOT exceed the 90 PSI maximum operating pressure for your sander.

Before using your new sander, regulate the air pressure to find the optimum setting within the specified operating range. Start by testing the sander at a low setting, then increase the air pressure as needed for satisfactory results.

An in-line filter/lubricator/regulator unit can be installed, as depicted in Figure 2.

This filter/lubricator/regulator will protect your tool from damaging water build-up, allow you to adjust and maintain constant air pressure to your tool, and save you the inconvenience of having to manually lubricate your tool every time you use it.

Exceeding the maximum permissible operating pressure may damage the sander and cause it to malfunction. To protect yourself from personal injury, DO NOT allow the air pressure to exceed the recommended pressure for this sander!

Avoid overlubricating, as excess oil may spray out during sanding, potentially damaging the workpiece and sanding belt.

Check the current Grizzly catalog for availability of filters and regulators. If you plan on installing a filter and regulator in your compressed air system, always follow the connection instructions that come with those units.
