If desired, for easy connection or removal, attach an Air Quick Coupler (not supplied) to the air compressor hose. 2. Attach the Air Quick Coupler (not supplied) to the Air Inlet (13) fitting. 3. Tighten all couplings and fittings. REV 07g Oiler and Filter Connection Dirt, water, and the lack of pneumatic tool oil are major causes for tool wear. Install an optional oiler-filter, as illustrated below for better performance. 1. Connect the air tool, air hoses, filter, and oiler to the Compressor Air Outlet as illustrated below. The filter and oiler (not supplied) are recommended but not mandatory for operation. If the filter and oiler are not used, connect the air hose directly to the 1/4 inch, 18 NPT connector located at the Air Inlet (13) fitting. Also, a few drops of pneumatic tool oil must be added through the air line before each use. Note: Use pipe thread seal or Teflon tape on all threaded connections. Side Handle 1. Slip the Brass Ring (35) over the Clamp Nut (30) and point the treads to either the left or right side for the desired operation. See photo on the cover. 2. Screw the Handle (34) onto the threads of the Brass Ring and tighten. Operation 1. Attach the desired bit (not supplied) to the Air Drill Chuck (32), making sure it is locked in place with Chuck Key (36). 2. Connect the compressor air hose (3/8”) to the Air Inlet (13) on the handle of the housing (1). 3. Set the (1.5 HP minimum) air compressor pressure regulator to 90 PSI. If any air leaking, disconnect the air hose and repair the leak. 4. Grip the Air Drill firmly with both hands and press down on the Trigger (8). Caution: If the Air Drill will not turn, or if it stalls while drilling, do not raise the outlet pressure of the air compressor. Do not continue with attempts to drill until the problem is resolved. REV 07g 5. When you are finished drilling, turn the compressor off, then remove the hose connection to the Air Drill. Maintenance 1. After each use, wipe the Air Drill with a clean cloth to remove any dirt and grease buildup. 2. To maintain tool life, always lubricate the air line by adding a few drops of pneumatic tool oil to the air line before each use. Or, install the automatic oiler-filter system as illustrated on page 5. 3. Before each use, drain water out of the air compressor tank and condensation from the air lines. Refer to the Air Compressor Operator’s Manual. Manual Tool Lubrication 1. Disconnect the Air Drill from the air supply and turn it so the Air Inlet fitting is facing upward. 2. Hold the Trigger (8) in and place a few d...
