5 Installation
Before connecting the air supply line to the screwdriver, clean the air pipe and the air
hose by slightlyblowing air into the pipe/hose in order to remove any dirt particles.
Wear safety goggles!
•Make sure, that all air lines have a sufficient cross-section (chapter Technical Data)
and that there are no throttle areas, bends or kinks.
•If the air supply line is longer than 2 meters, the next larger hose I.D. should be in-
stalled in order to avoida loss of power.
•This pneumatic screwdriver may be operated either with or without lubricated air. The
best performance is achieved by adding 1 – 2 drops of oil per 1 m³ of air consumption.
When operating with oil-free air, a performance reduction of up to 20% occurs and
maintenance requirements increases.
•The air supplyto the screwdriver has to be filtered.
•The maintenance unit, the valves and the silencers have to be selected according to
the air consumption of the screwdriver (chapter Technical Data). Install components,
which have a measurement that will limit the pressure drop – whenmeasuredfrom the
maintenance unit to the screwdriver – to less than 0.5 bar (7.25 PSI).
•Use only lubricants approved by the manufacturer. We recommend:
special oil „DEPRAGOL“, order no. 790081 E (250 cm³ = 8.45 fl. oz).
•Check flow-pressure at directly on the machine. The pressure regulator needs to be
adjusted to an airflow between 5.0 (71 PSI) and 6.3 bar (90 PSI). Ahigher pressure
leads to increased wear and tear. A lower pressuremay lead to clutch not being able to
correctly shut-off themotor i.e. the preset torque will not bereached.
•Connect the screwdriver as follows:
a) For standard operation, connect toa maintenanceunit consisting of filter with water
separator, pressure regulator and oiler.
Air Consumption Thread Size Order No.
0,05 - 0,5 m³/min G 1/4 820454 A

parator and pressure regulator.

Recommendation: The preferred lubricating methodfor screwdrivers mounted in fixtures,
brackets, machines etc. (in connection with controller) is method b) with point-of-use oiler.
We recommend attaching the screwdriver to a balancer (Recommended Equipment).
