COMPRESSED AIR REQUIREMENTS
WARNING: COMPRESSED AIR CAN BE DANGEROUS. ENSURE THAT YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH ALL PRECAUTIONS RELATING TO THE USE OF COMPRESSORS AND A COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY.
· Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air as a power source. · Air compressors used with the tool must comply with the appropriate
European Community Safety Directives. · A build-up of moisture or oil in the air compressor will accelerate
wear and corrosion in the tool. ensure any moisture is drained from the compressor daily and the inlet filter is kept clean. · If an unusually long air hose is required, (over 8 metres), the line pressure or the hose inside diameter may need to be increased. · The air hose must be rated at least 150% of the maximum operating pressure of the tool.
· A typical air line layout is shown above. If an automatic in-line filter/ regulator is used, it will keep the tool in good condition, but should be regularly checked & topped up with oil. Clarke air-line oil should be used, and the lubricator adjusted to approx 2 drops per minute.
· Never exceed the maximum operating pressure for the tool. It is recommended that air pressure to this tool does not exceed 90 psi at the tool when running. Higher pressures and unclean air will shorten the life of the tool due to faster wear and is a possible safety hazard.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE AIR TOOL IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE AIR SUPPLY BEFORE STARTING ANY CLEANING, OR MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES.
DAILY
1. Before use, drain any water from the compressed air supply.
2. This air tool should be lubricated before use. Turn the tool upside down and pour 1-2 drops of Clarke air-line oil into the air inlet. This should be carried out regardless of whether or not an in-line mini oiler is used. If an in-line mini oiler is not used, this procedure should be repeated after every two to three hours of constant use.
CLEANING
1. Keep all parts of the tool clean.
2. Deposits in the tool may also reduce efficiency. This can be corrected by cleaning the air inlet and flushing out the tool with gum solvent, or failing this, the tool should be disassembled, thoroughly cleaned, dried and reassembled.
3. If the tool becomes inefficient and the air supply is of good quality, it may be necessary to replace worn or damaged parts. You may prefer to take the tool to your Clarke dealer if internal maintenance is required.
Your Clarke air tool has been designed to give long and trouble free service. If, however, having followed the instructions in this booklet carefully, you encounter problems, take the unit to your local Clarke dealer.
PERFORMANCE
Please note that factors other than the tool may effect its operation and efficiency such as reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the airline, moisture or restrictions in the air-line, or the use of connectors of improper size or poor condition which will reduce air supply.
**Clarke Air-line Oil (part no. 3050825) is available from your Clarke dealer.
STORAGE
If the tool is to be stored, or is idle for longer than 24 hours, run a few drops of Clarke air-line oil into the air inlet and run the tool in order to lubricate the internal parts. When not in use, disconnect the tool from the air supply, clean and store in a safe, dry place.
