Lubrication - Bostitch F28WW Manual De Operación Y De Mantenimiento

CONTACT TRIP (Black trigger):
The common operating procedure on "Contact Trip" tools is for the operator to contact the work surface to
actuate the trip mechanism while keeping the trigger pulled, thus driving a fastener each time the work is
contacted. This will allow rapid fastener placement on many jobs, such as sheathing, decking and pallet
assembly. All pneumatic tools are subject to recoil when driving fasteners. The tool may bounce, releasing the
trip, and if unintentionally allowed to re-contact the work surface with the trigger still actuated (finger still holding
trigger pulled) an unwanted second fastener will be driven.
MODEL IDENTIFICATION:
Refer to Operation Instructions on page 4 before proceeding to use this tool.

GRAY TRIGGER
Do not use oxygen, combustible gases, or bottled gases as a power source for this tool as tool
may explode, possibly causing injury.
FITTINGS:
Install a male plug on the tool which is free flowing and which will release air pressure from the tool when disconnected
from the supply source.
HOSES:
Air hoses should have a minimum of 150 p.s.i. (10.6 kg/cm2) working pressure rating or 150 percent of the maximum
pressure that could be produced in the air system. The supply hose should contain a fitting that will provide "quick
disconnecting" from the male plug on the tool.
SUPPLY SOURCE:
Use only clean regulated compressed air as a power source for this tool. NEVER USE OXYGEN, COMBUSTIBLE
GASES, OR BOTTLED GASES, AS A POWER SOURCE FOR THIS TOOL AS TOOL MAY EXPLODE.
REGULATOR:
A pressure regulator with an operating pressure of 0 - 125 p.s.i. (0 - 8.79 KG/CM
pressure for safe operation of this tool. Do not connect this tool to air pressure which can potentially exceed 200 p.s.i.
(14 KG/CM 2 ) as tool may fracture or burst, possibly causing injury.
OPERATING PRESSURE:
Do not exceed recommended maximum operating pressure as tool wear will be greatly increased. The air supply must
be capable of maintaining the operating pressure at the tool. Pressure drops in the air supply can reduce the tool's
driving power. Refer to "TOOL SPECIFICATIONS" for setting the correct operating pressure for the tool.
FILTER:
Dirt and water in the air supply are major causes of wear in pneumatic tools. A filter will help to get the best performance
and minimum wear from the tool. The filter must have adequate flow capacity for the specific installation. The filter has to
be kept clean to be effective in providing clean compressed air to the tool. Consult the manufacturer's instructions on proper
maintenance of your filter. A dirty and clogged filter will cause a pressure drop which will reduce the tool's performance.
Frequent, but not excessive, lubrication is required for best performance. Use BOSTITCH Air Tool Lubricant, Mobil
Velocite #10, or equivalent. Do not use detergent oil or additives as these lubricants will cause accelerated wear to
the seals and bumpers in the tool, resulting in poor tool performance and frequent tool maintenance. Only a few drops
of oil at a time is necessary. Too much oil will only collect inside the tool and will be noticeable in the exhaust cycle.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION:
For cold weather operation, near and below freezing, the moisture in the air line may freeze and prevent tool operation.
We recommend the use of BOSTITCH winter formula air tool lubricant or permanent antifreeze (ethylene glycol) as a
cold weather lubricant.
CAUTION: Do not store tools in a cold weather environment to prevent frost or ice formation on the
tools operating valves and mechanisms that could cause tool failure.
NOTE:Some commercial air line drying liquids are harmful to "O"-rings and seals – do not use these
low temperature air dryers without checking compatibility.
