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.

LUBRICATION

Frequent, but not excessive, lubrication is required for best performance. Oil added through the air line connection
will lubricate the internal parts. Use 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.
If no airline lubricator is used, add oil during use into the air fitting on the tool once or twice a day. 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 WINTER FORMULA air tool lubricant or permanent antifreeze (ethylene
glycol) as a cold weather lubricant.
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.
Some commercial air line drying liquids are harmful to "O"-rings and seals – do not use these
low temperature air dryers without checking compatibility.
LOADING THE FMFP71927
EYE PROTECTION which conforms to ANSI specifications and provides protection
against flying particles both from the FRONT and SIDE should ALWAYS be worn
by the operator and others in the work area when loading, operating or servicing
this tool. Eye protection is required to guard against flying fasteners and debris,
which could cause severe eye injury.
The employer and/or user must ensure that proper eye protection is worn. Eye
protection equipment must conform to the requirements of the American National
Standards Institute, ANSI Z87.1 and provide both frontal and side protection.
NOTE: Non-side shielded spectacles and face shields alone do not provide
adequate protection.
TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL INJURIES:
• Never place a hand or any other part of the body in nail discharge area of tool
• Never point the tool at anyone else.
• Never engage in horseplay.
• Never pull the trigger unless nose is directed at the work.
• Always handle the tool with care.
• Do not pull the trigger or depress the trip mechanism while loading the tool.
