14. Maintenance and care
■ Lubrication:
Pneumatic tools have to be lubricated throughout their lifetime. Motor and ball bearings
need compressed air to power the tool. As the moisture in the compressed air causes
motor corrosion, the motor must be lubricated daily. We therefore recommend using and
integrated lubricator.
■
FÖRCH-Unit Lubricator to be assembled to pneumatic tools.
■
Lubricating the pneumatic motor manually:
Disconnect the device from the compressed air supply and keep up with the air inlet
upwards. Apply one or two drops of special compressed air oil into the air inlet. Reconnect
the tool to the compressed air supply, cover the air outlet at the unit with a towel and oper-
ate it for a few seconds. Never use flammable or volatile liquids such as kerosene, diesel or
gasoline for lubricating this tool.
ATTENTION!
Excess oil in the motor will be discharged immediately through the air outlet.
WARNING!
Never point the outlet opening at people or objects. The air outlet
is located on the side of the handle.
■
Maintenance
Always disconnect the device from the compressed air supply before carrying out mainte-
nance work. In case of daily use, a quarterly maintenance is required, at the latest however
after 1000 operating hours. Damaged or worn components such as O-rings, bearings,
rotary blades etc. have to be replaced and all moving parts must be lubricated.
Only use the spare parts recommended by the manufacturer otherwise warranty expires.
When disposing of the components, lubricants etc., please make sure that the appropriate
guidelines for environmental protection are followed.
For cleaning the tool or its individual parts we recommend the use of benzine. Never
clean with detergents or acid cleaners, esters (organic compound from acids and alcohol),
acetone (ketone), chlorinated hydrocarbons or nitrocarbon-containing oils. Do not use
chemicals with low flashpoint.
To obtain service please get in touch with your dealer or with the FÖRCH-Service Center.
15. Disturbances
In case of disturbance – please check:
■ Do compression system and compressed air supply hoses, air consumption l/min and
hose cross section correspond to the technical requirements of the unit?
■
Check the operating air, whether is contains dust and rust particles or condensed water.
■ Has the air motor been lubricated too much?
