MAINTENANCE

DAILY

1. Before use, drain water from the airline filter and compressor.

2. If no line lubricator or mini oiler is used, ensure that oil is applied to the tool

on a daily basis through the air inlet connection. Run a few drops of oil

through the tool before use. It may be entered into the tool air inlet,

(ensuring the strainer is clear), or into the hose at the nearest connection to

the air supply. Only then should you operate the tool.

3. This procedure should be repeated after every two to three hours of use, or

at the start of the working day.

WEEKLY

1. Check the air inlet screen filter for

blockage and clean if necessary.

CLEANING

1. Keep the body of the tool clean

and free from debris.

2. Grit or gum deposits in the tool

may reduce efficiency.

3. After extensive use, remove the

inlet screen filter and flush out the

mechanism with gum solvent oil or an equal mixture of CLARKE air-line oil

and paraffin. Allow to dry before use.

4. If the tool still runs erratically or becomes inefficient, and the air supply is of

good quality, it may be necessary to dismantle the air motor and replace

worn or damaged parts. You may prefer to take the tool to your CLARKE

dealer if internal maintenance is required.

PERFORMANCE

Please note that outside factors may affect the tool’s operation and

efficiency such as reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the airline,

moisture or restrictions in the air-line, or the use of connectors of improper size

or poor condition which will reduce air supply.

WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE AIR TOOL IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE

AIR SUPPLY BEFORE STARTING ANY CLEANING, OR MAINTENANCE

PROCEDURES.
