Safety and operating instructions
To avoid injury, before using or servicing tool, read
and understand separately provided safety
instructions.

Compressed air source
A.

Oiler (optional)
C.
D. Max. 10 feet (3 meter) compressed air hose
between the oiler and the machine.
Check that you are using the correct
♦
recommended operating pressure, 87 psig (6 bar
(e)).
♦ The maximum permissible air pressure, 90 psig
(6.2 bar (e)), must not be exceeded.
♦ Blow any impurities out of the compressed air
hose before connecting it to the machine.
Select the correct dimension and length for the
♦
compressed air hose. For hose lengths up to 100
feet (30 meters), a hose with a minimum internal
diameter of 3 ⁄ in. (19 mm) should be used. If the
4
hose length is between 100 and 330 feet (30 and
100 meters), a hose with a minimum internal
diameter of 1 in. (25 mm) should be used.

Methods to prevent freezing

Ice formation in the muffler can occur when the
ambient air temperature is 32-50 °F (0-10 °C) and
the relative humidity is high.
The machine is designed to avoid the formation of
ice in the muffler. Despite this, under extreme
conditions ice can form in the muffler.
The following actions can be taken to further
counteract the risk of ice formation:
Use CP Airolene Plus Tool Oil as a lubricant. CP
♦
Airolene Plus Tool Oil counteracts freezing.
Use a water separator.

Connecting a water
separator
The length of the air hose between the compressor
and the water separator must be such that the water
vapor is cooled and condenses in the hose before
reaching the water separator.
If the ambient temperature is below 32 °F (0 °C) the
hose must be short enough to prevent the water
from freezing before reaching the water separator.

Lubrication

Lubrication
The lubricant is important for the machine s function
and has a great impact on the service life. In order
to supply the correct volume of oil, an oiler should
be connected to the air hose. The use of Chicago
Pneumatic air line oiler is recommended. To
guarantee good lubrication, the length of the air
hose between the oiler and the pneumatic tool
should not exceed 10 feet (3 m).
Too much lubrication can cause starting problems,
low power or uneven performance.
Use a synthetic lubricant such as CP Airolene Plus
Tool Oil or mineral oil with the properties
recommended in the table below.
Temperature
Lubricant range °F (°C)
CP Airolene Plus -4 to +120
Tool Oil (-20 to +50)
Air tool oil -4 to +60
(-20 to +15)
Air tool oil +60 to +120
(+15 to +50)
It is recommended that the oil contains a
rust-inhibitor.
Checking the level and filling lubricant
Oil levels should be checked daily.
♦
Wipe clean around the oil plug and remove it.
♦
Check that the threads are not damaged or worn
♦
out.
Any part with damaged or worn out threads must
♦
be replaced.
Fill lubricant in (A).
