The air compressor must be able to maintain a minimum
of 70 psi when the tool is being used. An inadequate air
supply can cause a loss of power and inconsistent
driving.
An oiler can be used to provide oil circulation through the
tool. A filter can be used to remove liquid and solid
impurities which can rust or gum up internal parts of the
tool.
Always use air supply hoses with a minimum working
pressure rating equal to or greater than the pressure from
the power source if a regulator fails, or 150 psi, whichever
is greater. Use 3/8 in. air hose for runs up to 50 ft. and use
3/8 in. quick coupler on the air hose.
Use a pressure regulator on the compressor, with an
operating pressure of 0-125 psi. A pressure regulator is
required to control the operating pressure of the tool
between 70 psi - 115 psi.

CAUTION: The air compressor must be able to
maintain a minimum of 70 psi when the tool is being
used. An inadequate air supply can cause a loss of
power and inconsistent driving.
WARNING: Do not connect with an air compressor
which can potentially exceed 200 psi. As the tool may
burst, possibly causing injury.
