There must not be hazardous ob-
jects (such as utility lines or foreign
objects) nearby that will present a
hazard while working.
General Operating Instructions
1.
If an automatic oiler is not used, add
a few drops of Pneumatic Tool Oil
to the airline connection before use.
Add a few drops more after each
hour of continual use.
2.
This Die Grinder has a variable
speed control.
By squeezing the
Control Lever (4) you can control the
speed of the action.
Squeeze more
for higher speed and less for slower
speed.
3.
If you are working in tight areas
where light is a premium, switch on
the LED Light (38) by pushing the
Switch (37).
When (or if) light is not
needed be sure to turn off by de-
pressing the Switch (37).
4.
To begin, grip the Die Grinder firmly.
Start grinding by squeezing the Con-
trol Lever (4) gently before you touch
the Die Grinder to the work surface.
5.
Allow the grinding attachment (not
included) to do the work.
Do not use
excessive force against the surface
you are grinding.
If you place too
much pressure on the workpiece
and the Die Grinder stalls, immedi-
ately release the Control Lever (4)
and pull the Die Grinder away from
the work surface. If the tool requires
more force to accomplish the task,
verify that the tool is receiving suffi
-
cient, unobstructed airflow (CFM) and
increase the pressure (PSI) output of
the regulator up to the maximum air
pressure rating of this tool (90PSI).
6.
CAUTION!
TO PREVENT TOOL
AND ACCESSORY FAILURE,
RESULTING IN INJURY:
Do not exceed the tool’s maximum
air pressure rating of 90 PSI.
If the tool still does not have sufficient
force at maximum pressure and
sufficient airflow, then a larger tool
may be required.
7.
To prevent accidents, when finished
working, release the Control Lever
(4), detach the air supply, safely dis-
charge any residual air pressure.
8.
Clean external surfaces of the tool
with clean, dry cloth, and apply a thin
coat of tool oil.
Then store the tool
indoors out of children’s reach.
