SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT
Failure to follow these precautions could result in
personal injury, and/or damage to property.
1. ALWAYS wear approved impact resistant safety
goggles. (Eye glasses are NOT safety glasses).
2. ALWAYS disconnect the tool when not in use,
before changing accessories and before carrying
out any maintenance
3. ALWAYS have trigger in the OFF position when
connecting to an air supply.
4. ALWAYS keep a safe distance between yourself
and other people when using the tool.
5. Maintain the tool with care. Keep it clean for
best and safest performance.
6. Quick change couplings should not be
located at the tool. They add weight and
could fail due to vibration.
7. DO NOT over-reach. Keep your proper footing
and balance at all times.
8. DO NOT force or misuse the tool. It will do a
better and safer job at the rate for which
it was designed.
9. DO NOT abuse hoses or connectors. NEVER
carry a tool by the hose, or yank it to
disconnect from the air supply. Keep hoses
away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
Check hoses for weak or worn condition
before use, and ensure that all connections
are secure.
10. DO NOT exceed 90 PSI at the tool.
11. DO NOT modify the tool in any way.
AIR SUPPLY
Tools of this type, operate on a wide range
of air pressures. It is recommended that
air pressure to this tool does not exceed
70 PSI, at the tool when running. Higher
pressure and unclean air, will shorten the
tools’ life because of faster wear, and
could be a safety hazard.
Water in the air line will cause damage to
the tool, ensure it is properly maintained
at all times.
The recommended procedure to connect
this tool to an air supply, is shown at fig. 1.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply,
has a standard ¼” BSP thread.
Line pressure, or hose inside diameter, should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses
(over 25 feet). Minimum hose diameter should be 5/16" (8mm) ID., and fittings should have the same
inside dimen.sions.
OPERATION
Ensure the air supply is disconnected before filling the grease chamber.
1. Remove the end cap from the gun.
2. Drop the cartridge, containing the caulking medium into the tube.
3. Thread the end cap over the cartridge nozzle and screw back on to the gun firmly.
4. Ensure the end of the nozzle is cut off, preferably at an angle - experience will determine the ideal
angle, and ammount of nozzle to cut off, for the job in hand.
5. Connect the air supply, turn ON and approach the work. Press the trigger so that caulking medium
is ejected. To stop, release the trigger. Be aware that medium will continue to be ejected for a
short period until pressure drops. You should make allowances for this.

MAINTENANCE
Daily
1. Before use, drain water from air tank, air line and compressor.
2. If no line Lubricator is used, ensure that oil is applied to the tool (see below).
Weekly
Clean the air inlet filter.
IMPORTANT
Run a few drops of oil through the tool. It may be entered into the tool air inlet, ensuring the strainer is
clear, or into the hose at the nearest connection to the air supply. Then run the tool. Clarke Air Line oil
is available from your Clarke dealer or a rust inhibitive oil, available from auto supply stores etc., is
acceptable.
Be aware that factors other than the tool may effect its operation and efficiency, such as reduced
compressor output, excessive drain on the airline, moisture or restrictions in the line, or the use of
connectors of improper size or poor condition which will reduce air supply. Grit or gum deposits in the
tool may also reduce efficiency. This condition can be corrected by cleaning the air strainer and
flushing out the tool with gum solvent oil, or failing this, the tool should be disassembled, thoroughly
cleaned, dried and re-assembled.
Keep the tool clean at all times,
