AIR SUPPLY
Tools of this class operate on a wide range of air pressures. It is
recommended that air pressure of these tools measures 90 PSI at
the tool while the tool is running freely. Higher pressure and unclean
air will shorten tool life because of faster wear and may create a
hazardous condition.
Water in the air line will cause damage to the tool. Drain the air tank
daily. Clean the air inlet filter screen on at least a weekly schedule. The
recommended hook-up procedure can be viewed in Figure 1.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply has standard 1/4" NPT
American Thread. 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.
OPERATION
Before operating this polisher, it is important to ensure that the pad is
secure. To do this, hold the stop spanner on the gear shaft and turn the
pad clockwise until tight.
Note: Make sure dead handle is installed on appropriate side of
polisher for positive grip while operating tool.
Let polisher do the work. The normal weight of the machine is sufficient
for efficient polishing. Do not put excessive pressure on the machine.
This will only slow down the speed of the pad, reduce polishing
efficiency and put an additional burden on the motor. Start the polisher
WARRANTY
Silver Eagle™ by Matco warrants its air tools for a period of 1 year
to the consumer. We will repair any SE Series air tool covered under

off the work, set it down on the work evenly and move it slowly back
and forth in wide, overlapping areas. When finished polishing, lift it off
the work before stopping the motor.
LUBRICATION
Lubricate the air motor daily with quality air tool oil. If no air line oiler
is used, run a teaspoon of air tool oil through the tool by squirting oil
into the tool's air inlet or into the nearest connection to the air inlet,
reconnecting air supply, and then running tool. Do not use more than
1/2 ounce of oil, as overfilling will reduce the performance of the tool.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Changes in air supply pressure or quality 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 improperly
sized air hoses or connections (or hoses and connections in poor
condition) may reduce air pressure.
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 oil and kerosene as detailed in
the LUBRICATION section. If air supply is functioning properly and
cleaning or lubricating tool does not correct performance problems,
disconnect tool from air supply and contact the nearest Silver
Eagle™ authorized service center.
This warranty gives you specific rights. You may also have other rights
which vary from state to state.
The foregoing obligation is Matco's sole liability under this or any
implied warranty and under no circumstances shall Matco be liable for
any incidental or consequential damages.
