OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
Our pneumatic saw is designed for a service pressure of 4 to 6 bar. The pneumatic reciprocating
saw is only used in conjunction with a clamping device. For this purpose the ground- in
receiving bolt of the clamping device is placed in the cross hole in gear casing cover and xed by
means of the locking device. Firmly clamped work-piece will yield a clean cut and will reduce saw
blade damage. The selection of the clamping device and of the saw blade depends on the type and
size of the work-piece. The saw blade must be cooled and/ or lubricated with lubricant or oil.
CUTTING
- Check oil level and ll up oiler, if neccessary.
- Equip saw with the appropriate saw blade. For this loosen two nuts, take away the pressure
plate and put in the saw blade. Mount the pressure plate and x it to the saw blade by tightening
the nuts.

6
- Connect pneumatic hose. (Before connecting, it is recommended to blow out the hose and thus
remove impurities).
- Actuate valve and press sensor button. (Only after pressing the sensor button, the channel is
opened. When the valve is closed, the sensor shuts as well. When the valve is opened again, the
sensor button has to be pressed again as well.)
- Start cutting.
- Ensure appropriate cooling (water) of tool and working piece.
AFTER FINISHING THE SAWING WORK
- Shut valve
- Shut compresse air supply and disconnect air hose.
- Take saw out of the device.
- Clean saw and retainer seat.
- Check oiler
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Our pneumatic motors are designed for an operation pressure of 4 -6 bar (65-90 PSI).
Service life and performance of the machines are decisively determined by:
a) The air purity
Blow the air hose clear before connecting it to the machine. Install dirt and water separator
upstream of the machine, if it is not possible to prevent the formation of rust and water
condensation in the air distribution lines.
b) The lubrication conditions and maintenance
see “Maintenance of pneumatic tools“
The proper quantity of grease is very important from the point of good lubrication and low heat
generation. The grease quantities listened in the following table must be complied with:
Grease Quantity in grams
In the crank casing 100
In the bevel gears 40
In the spur gears 30

MAINTENANCE OF PNEUMATIC TOOLS
Only proper maintenance can ensure constant performance, reduction in wear and thus, a
decrease in operating costs and an increase in service life.
Our pneumatic tools are equipped for an operating pressure of 6 bar. A regulator setting for an
operating pressure of 4 bar is possible as well as expedient for grinding machines with a built-in
regulator so as to take full advantage of the speed prescribed for the corresponding grinding wheels.
Pneumatic tools should not run empty, because this results in heat and higher wear. The
compressed air should be clean and dry.
This is guaranteed by a proper pneumatic system.
Blow through the pneumatic hose before connecting it.
For the economical use of pneumatic tools. The prescribed air quantities are necessary, i. e. , the
line, armatures and hoses must have the required cross sections so that the ow pressure remains
constant.
Proper lubrication is a must; for this reason, our pneumatic tools usually have built-in oilers.
Which are located between the inlet valve and the motor, and which function in any position. In
smaller and lighter hand tools, these oilers must often be left out, because the machines would then
be too heavy and not easy to manage. In such cases, lubrication must be carried out by service
units or by manual hose oilers. We recommend service units for permanently installed workplaces
(see accessories list). However, where longer hose lines are necessary.
Line oilers built into the hose lines are more effective. The distance between the tool and oiler
should not be more than 5 m.
Most of pneumatic tools have located at the connection a lined-up screen, which is to be
regularly checked and cleaned.
After ending a working task, the machines are to be ushed with a thin oil, or protected some
other way against corrosion.
Visible grease nipples ar provided for regular lubrication of the gears with a grease gun. Note the
following for grease lubrication: Every 60 hours of operation check striking mechanism, friction
bearings and antifriction bearings; if necessary, grease them. Every 300 hours of operation grease
the gears and antifriction bearings anew. In the case of impact wrenches, use a grease gun to
grease the anvil guide before beginning daily work or every 6 to 8 hours. All inner parts must be
lubricated before storing for longer periods of time in order to prevent rusting. It is recommended
to check the vanes and bearings at regular intervals. Store pneumatic tools in dry rooms only.
Lubricating oils to be used:
Generally SAE 5 W to SAE 10
For gearless impact wrenches and small grinders, only SAE 5 W.
For damp compressed air, oils are to be used that take up water ( without losing the lubricating
effect) and that contain anticorrosive additives. At lower temperatures (especially for work
outside) it may be necessary to use an antifreeze lubricant (e.g. Kilfrost, BP Energol AX 10,
Kompranol N 74).
For saw-chain lubrication on chain saws:
Machine oil with adhesive additive, viscosity c ST 49-55’ (6.5-7.5 E)/ 50°C

Before starting: Check correct oiler setting!
Oiler types used on or with our tools
Oiler to mount on the machine or connect in
the hose line
Setting the oiler: The adjustment screw item 2
is visible after removing the screw plug item
3. Theoil supply is decreased by tightening
the screw, and by loosening the screw, more
oil gets into the machine. In most cases it is
sufcient to tighten or loosen the screw by ¼
or ½ of a turn. When plugged, clean borehole
(dia. 2 mm) with wire.
Correct setting; When under pressure and with
the ller screw (item 4) open, the oil must
bubble slightly. The llint lasts for approx. 8
operating hours.
Line oiler
For stationary pneumatic machines and motors,
the lubrication is carried out by lined-up oilers
for horizontal or vertical installation.
Setting of oilers: Shut off air supply. Open plug
item 3. Loosen visible lock nut item 5 with a
socket wrench. Using a screw driver turn back
the tightened screw plug item 4 by ¼ to ½ of
a turn and then lock again. No oil is to get into
the borehole “a” when lling. Close plug item 3
and open the air supply.
Correct setting: A piece of paper held for a short
time in front of the outlet must be coated with
oil without drops forming.

9
Transparent oiler
For installing in permanently equipped
workplaces (especially for type using service
units – see accessories list)
The transparent supply containers allow for
good checking as well as for good setting
possibility by means of a screw driver via a set
screw with visible dripping. (The set screw is
above the lateral thread connection – turning
to the right for less oil; turning to the left for
more oil) The setting (2 to 5 drops per m³/min
air consumption) is to be carried out when air
is owing through, i.e., when the machine is
running.
