3.1. Ensure the throttle is in the "off" position before connecting to the air supply.
3.2. pWARNING! Ensure the air supply does not exceed 90 PSI while running the tool. Too high an air pressure and unclean air will
shorten the grinders life due to excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing possible damage and personal injury.
3.3. Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the tool.
3.4. Clean the air inlet filter screen weekly. The recommended hook-up procedure can be viewed in fig 1.
3.5. 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.
3.6. Use correct hoses and fittings.
DO NOT use quick change couplings as they
add weight and can cause failure due to vibration.
Add a leader hose and connect coupling between
air supply and hose whip.

The follow are factors which may cause loss of power or erratic grinding action.
a) Reduced compressor output. b) Excessive drain on the air line. c) Moisture or restrictions in air pipes.
