BEFORE USE

CONNECTING THE AIRLINE

NOTE: Ensure the air supply is turned off.

1. Remove the travel plug

2. Pour 2-3 drops of Clarke airline oil into the oil filling port. This should be done

regardless of whether or not a lubricated air supply is to be used.

3. If required, connect an in-line mini

oiler to the tool. Refer to the

instructions supplied with the mini-

oiler before use.

• A mini oiler helps to prolong the

life of any air tool.

4. Connect a suitable hose. This can

be done using either the male

adaptor supplied or using a mini

oiler from your CLARKE dealer.

5. If a mini-oiler is not being used, run a few drops of oil through the tool

before use. It can be entered through the airline connector or via the hose

at the nearest connection to the air supply.

6. Connect the other end of the hose to the compressor.

7. Turn on the air supply and check for air leaks. Rectify any found before

proceeding. Set the working pressure to 90psi/6.2 bar for best performance

• PTFE tape may be useful for sealing threaded connections.

8. Place a sheet of paper next the exhaust port and hold the throttle open for

approximately 30 seconds. The oil volume is correctly set when a light stain

of oil can be seen on the paper. Excessive oil should be avoided.

Your air tool is now ready for use.

You can fit a whip hose with a quick fit coupling if required (available from

your CLARKE dealer).

WARNING: COMPRESSED AIR CAN BE DANGEROUS. ENSURE THAT YOU

ARE FAMILIAR WITH ALL PRECAUTIONS RELATING TO THE USE OF AIR

COMPRESSORS AND A COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY.
