Operation
• Connect the airlines to the FRL. Both the air inlet and outlet are
¼” NPT threads. The direction of air ow is indicated by arrows
on top of the FRL. With the pneumatic tool (PESAPA) connec-
ted and in the OFF position (depressed foot pedal), turn on the
air supply to the FRL. Check the level of the uids in the clear
bowls on the bottom of the air lter and air lubricator.
• If the air lter bowl contains water, drain the bowl by loosening
the small plug until the water is completely drained. Water can
be drained with the air supply on or o.
• The oil level in the air lubricator must be maintained for proper
lubrication of the pneumatic tool. To add oil, remove the oil ll
cap at the top of the air lubricator, add oil and replace the cap.
Oil can be added with either the air supply on or o.
• The air pressure is indicated on the dial gauge on the front of
the pressure regulator. To adjust the pressure, pull the large
knob below the gauge down to the unlocked position. When
unlocked, an orange band can be observed on the top of
the knob. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the pressure.
When the desired pressure is reached, push the knob up to the
locked position. (The orange band is no longer visible.)
• The amount of lubricant supplied to the pneumatic tool is regu-
lated by the number of drops of oil per minute. Check the
specic pneumatic tool manual for lubrication
requirements. The numbers on the scale of the adjusting
knob do not indicate drop amounts. The tool must be
running (PESAPA in “neutral”) to adjust the number of drops
per minute of lubricant. With the pneumatic tool running, turn
the knob to adjust to the required number of drops. Counter-
clockwise will increase the number of drops.
