Lubrication & Maintenance:
1. Lubricate the stapler prior to initial operation.
2. Disconnect the stapler from the air supply prior to servicing.
3. Turn the stapler so that the inlet is facing up and put one drop of high-speed
spindle oil, UNOCOL RX22, or 3-in-1 oil into air inlet. Never use detergent
oil or additives.
4. Operate the tool briefly after adding oil.
5. Wipe off excessive oil at the exhaust. Excessive oil will damage the O-rings.
If inline oiler is used, manual lubrication through the air inlet is not required
on a daily basis.

Air supply and Connections
NOTE:
The following illustration shows the correct mode of connection to the air supply
system which will increase the efficiency and life of the stapler.
Many air tool users find it convenient to use an inline oiler to provide oil circulation
through their tool. Check oil level in the oiler daily.
A filter is recommended on your air compressor. Check the filter and drain on a
daily basis.
