9) Before Starting
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM EXPLOSION:
Verify compressor is off before setup. Use only clean, dry,
regulated, compressed air to power this tool. Do not use
oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible gases, or any other
bottled gas as a power source for this tool.
1. It is recommended a filter, regulator with pressure gauge, oiler,
in-line shut-off valve, and quick coupler be fitted for optimal
operation, as shown on Figure A.
2. An in-line shut-off ball valve is an important safety device,
it will shut-off the air supply even if the air hose is ruptured.
The shut-off valve should be a ball valve because it can be
closed quickly.
Note: If an automatic oiler system is not used, add a 4 to 5 drops of
Kincrome Air Tool Oil to the air inlet before operation.
Add a 1-2 more drops every hour of continual use.
3. Attach an air hose to the compressor’s air outlet. Connect the air hose to the air inlet (1) of the tool. Other components, such as
a quick connect fitting and quick connect coupler, will make operation more efficient, but are not required.
