ments or before attempting any service. Also disconnect the air tool from the com-
pressed air system when not in use.
10)
Excessive use of this tool can cause injury due to vibration and fatigue. Do not use this
tool in awkward positions, and avoid repetitive work motions. When feeling discomfort,
numbness, fatigue, tingling or pain stop work immediately and seek medical treatment

Follow air supply manufacturer’s recommendation for connection of regulators, filters
and other accessories. Do not install quick couplers directly on air tool, it puts unneces-
sary strain on the air inlet threads, instead install a short length of air hose to the tool.

BEFORE USING THIS AIR TOOL
To ensure long life be sure to oil the tool daily. Pour 4 drops of Eagle air tool (SEA 20 non
detergent) oil into the air inlet, and then run the tool for a few seconds to clean.
If tool is an impact wrench fitted with a “Zirc” grease fitting:
The hammer mechanism of this tool also needs to be greased from time to time (depending
on usage). The tool is equipped with grease fitting for this purpose; use this connection to
re-grease the tool using Eagle impact wrench grease.
PLEASE USE EAGLE SEA 20 NON DETERGENT OIL
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Do not put additional pressure on the tool, this will only reduce efficiency and shorten the
tool’s life. We recommend the air pressure of this grinder at 90 PSI.
When using the grinder be careful not to exert excessive force. Too much force could be
hazardous if it caused the cutting tool spindle to bend or break.
The burning of the work piece or excessive speed reduction indicates too much force being
applied. Changing to a cutting tool may be better for the desired rate of speed and stock
removal.
Avoid hazardous conditions by making sure there is sufficient gripping force on the spindle
of cutting tool by placing the spindle 7/16” or more inside the collet.
Lubricate the motor with a good grade of air tool oil. Grit or gum deposit in the tool may cut
power and may be corrected by cleaning the air strainer and flushing out the tool with gum
solvent oil.
