INSTRUCTIONS FOR:
AIR DIE GRINDER MIDI SIZE
90° SUPER DUTY
MODEL No: SA653.V2
DANGER OF FIRE/ExPLOSION HAZARD
WARNING! The grinding process can produce streams of sparks (especially when grinding metal) which are a potential source of
ignition.
DO NOT use the grinder where there are flammable liquids, solids or gases.
DO NOT allow grinder sparks to make contact with the operator’s clothing or any other fabric such as cleaning rags. Fabrics
contaminated with inflammable materials such as petrol, oil, grease, paint and solvents are a particular fire hazard.
To reduce the risk of clothing catching fire the operator should wear wool or cotton outer garments treated with a fire retardant in

3.1. Air Supply
Recommended hook-up procedure is shown in fig 1.
3.1.1. Ensure die grinder air valve (or trigger) is in "Off" position before connecting to the air supply.
3.1.2. You will require an air pressure of 90psi, and an air flow according to specification.
3.1.3. WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90psi while operating the
die grinder. Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the product life due to
excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing damage and/or personal injury.
3.1.4. Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the die grinder.
3.1.5. Clean air inlet filter weekly.
3.1.6. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8
metres). The minimum hose diameter should be 1/4” I.D. and fittings must have the same
inside dimensions.
3.1.7. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hose for wear, and make certain
that all connections are secure.
3.2. Couplings.
Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the die grinder.
To overcome this, connect a leader hose to the grinder. A quick change coupling may
then be used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose. See fig 1 & 2.

Sealey air tool oil dripped into the air inlet to prolong its life.
5.2. Clean the die grinder after use.

type of hose connectors. To remedy check the air supply and follow instructions in
chapter 3.
b) Grit or gum deposits in the die grinder may also reduce performance. If your model has
an air strainer (located in the area of the air inlet), remove the strainer and clean it. Flush
the die grinder out with gum solvent oil or an equal mixture of SAE No 10 oil and
paraffin. Allow to dry before use.
