AIR SUPPLY
Tools of this class operate on a wide
range of air pressures. It is
recommended that air pressure of
these tools measures 90 PSI at the
tool while running free. Low
pressure (under 90 psig; 6.2 bar)
reduces the speed of all air tools.
Low air pressure not only wastes
time, but also costs money. Higher
pressure (over 90 psig; 6.2 bar)
raises performance beyond the
LUBRICATION
Lubricate the air motor daily with
NAPA air tool oil. If no air line oiler
is used, run a teaspoon of oil
through the tool. The oil can be

will shorten tool life because of
faster wear and could cause injury.
Always use clean, dry air. Dust,
corrosive fumes and/or water in the
air line will cause damage to the
tool. Drain the air tank daily. Clean
the air inlet filter screen on at least
a weekly schedule. The
