AIR SUPPLY
Tools operate on a wide range of air pressures. It is recommended
that air pressure measures 90 psig at the tool with the trigger fully
depressed and no load applied to the tool. Higher pressure (over 90
psig; 6.2 bar) raises performance beyond the rated capacity of the
tool, which will shorten tool life and could cause injury.
Always use clean, dry air. Dust, corrosive fumes and/or water in the
air line will cause damage to the tool. Drain the water from air lines
and compressor prior to running tool. Clean the air inlet filter screen
weekly. The recommended hookup procedure can be viewed in the
Fig. 1.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply (FIG. 2) has standard 1/4"
NPT. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually
long air hoses (over 25 feet). Minimum hose diameter should be
3/8" I.D. and fittings should have the same inside dimensions and be
tightly secured.
Always turn off the air supply, drain hose of air pressure and detach
tool from air supply before installing, removing or adjusting any part
or accessory on this tool, or before performing any maintenance on
this tool.
WARNING
Ensure an accessible emergency shut off valve has been installed in
the air supply line and make others aware of its location.
WARRANTY
Matco warrants this air tool for a period of 2 years to the
consumer. We will repair any MT Series air tool covered under

incidental or consequential damages so the above limitation or
exclusion may not apply to you.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Other factors outside the tool may cause loss of power or erratic
action. Reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the air line,
moisture or restrictions in air pipes or the use of hose connections
of improper size or poor conditions may reduce air supply. Grit or
gum deposits in the tool may cut power and may be corrected by
cleaning the air strainer and flushing out the tool with gum solvent oil
or an equal mixture of SAE #10 and kerosene. If outside conditions
are in order, disconnect tool from hose and take tool to your nearest
authorized service center.
LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE
Lubricate the air motor daily with high quality air tool oil. If no air
line oiler is used, run 1/2 oz. of oil through the tool. The oil can
be squirted into the tool air inlet or into the hose at the nearest
connection to the air supply, then run the tool. A rust inhibitive
oil is acceptable for air tools.
WARNING
After an air tool has been lubricated, oil will discharge through
the exhaust port during the first few seconds of operation. The
exhaust port must be covered with a towel before applying air
pressure to prevent serious injury.
