POWER SOURCE
This tool is designed to operate on clean, dry, compressed air at regulated
pressures between 60 and 100 PSI (Pounds per Square Inch). The preferred
system would include a filter, a pressure regulator, and an automatic oiler located
a s c l o s e t o t h e t o o l a s p o s s i b l e ( w i t h i n 1 5 f e e t i s i d e a l ) .

connected to the air supply with a coupling such that all pressure is removed
from the tool when the coupling is disconnected.
CAUTION: All air line components (hoses, connectors, filters,
regulators, etc.) must have a minimum working pressure rating of
150 PSI (10.3 BAR) or 150% of maximum system potential,
whichever is higher.
Do not connect this tool to a system with maximum potential pressure
greater than 200 PSI.
Only connect tool to air supply with a coupling that will release all
pressure from the tool when disconnected.
Disconnect tool from air supply before performing maintenance,
clearing a jammed fastener, leaving work area, moving tool to another
