Compressed air line
To ensure that the air ratchet wrench is used in a safe way, to
make it easier to change attachments, to optimise the operation
of the appliance and to extend its service life, certain
precautions and procedures must be considered such as:
▪ The air pressure supplying the appliance must not exceed the
maximum pressure given in the technical specifications;
▪ The compressed air system must have a filter capable of
regulating the working pressure, eliminating liquid and solid
particles and lubricating the appliance. This keeps the
appliance lubricated and reduces friction;
▪ Drain the pressure regulator cup daily. The presence of water
in the compressed air system can cause damage to the
appliance mechanism;
▪ The compressed air line shall be composed of a 3/8"
diameter hose;
▪ Never use a compressed air hose for pulling, transporting the
pneumatic tool. Damaged hoses increase the risk of
accidents and injuries;
▪ Keep the air hose away from heat sources, oil, sharp objects
and rotating parts. If the air hose is damaged, it should be
replaced;
▪ Constantly check the condition of air hoses and couplings to
detect and prevent air leaks;
▪ To ease cleaning, adjustment, changing of attachments,
servicing or maintenance, the air hose should be connected
to a shutoff valve to shut off the compressed air supply to
the appliance.
