Male Quick Connector (not included) is
required. Then connect the coupler of
an hose (not included) onto the Quick
Connector.
WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS
INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL
OPERATION: Do not install a female
quick coupler on the tool. Such 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 ow, 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 while
working.
4. Make sure tool’s throttle is in the off
position; refer to Operation section for
description of controls.
5. Close the in-line safety valve between
the compressor and the tool.
6. Turn on air compressor according to
manufacturer’s directions and allow it to
build up pressure until it cycles off.
7. Adjust air compressor’s output regulator
so that 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 the pressure
gradually, while checking the air output
gauge to set the right pressure range.
8. Inspect air connections for leaks. Repair
any leaks found.
9. If tool will not be used at this time,
turn off and detach air supply, safely
discharge any residual air pressure, and
release throttle 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.
