tool. Other components, such as coupler plug and
WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS
INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION: Do not install a quick coupler on the tool. A coupler contains an air valve that will allow the air tool to retain pressure and operate accidentally after the air supply is disconnected.
Note: Air flow, and therefore tool performance, can be hindered by undersized air supply components.
3.The air hose must be long enough to reach work area with enough extra length to allow free movement.
4.Release Trigger (32).
5.Close the
6.Turn on the air compressor according to the manufacturer’s directions and allow it to build up pressure until it cycles off.
7.Adjust the air compressor’s output regulator so that the air output is enough to properly power the tool, but the output will not exceed the tool’s maximum air pressure at any time. Adjust pressure gradually, while checking the air output gauge to set the right pressure.
8.The air pressure setting must not exceed job site regulations/restrictions. The air pressure setting must not exceed 90 PSI when being used with work pieces that have a thickness of less than
9.Inspect the air connections for leaks. Repair any leaks found.
10.If tool will not be used at this time, turn off and detach air supply, safely discharge any residual air pressure,
and release Trigger to prevent accidental operation.
Note: Residual air pressure should not be present after the tool is disconnected from the air supply. However, it is a good safety measure to attempt to discharge the tool in a safe fashion after disconnecting to ensure that the tool is disconnected and unpowered.
Work Piece and Work Area Set Up
1.Designate a work area that is clean and
2.Route the air hose along a safe path to reach the work area without creating a tripping hazard or exposing the air hose to possible damage. The air hose must be long enough to reach the work area with enough extra length to allow free movement while working.
3.Secure loose workpieces using a vise or clamps (not included) to prevent movement while working.
4.There must not be hazardous objects (such as utility lines or foreign objects) nearby that will present a hazard while working.
