Sioux Tools GO459 - Manual (Page 3)

Form ZCE796 3 Date 2013July29/C
INTENDED USE
This tool is intended to be used with abrasive sanding discs for the finish sanding of materials such as wood, metal, fiberglass and similar materials. If it is
used for anything else, it is considered misuse, creates a hazard and may void the warranty.
AIR SUPPLY
The efficiency and life of this tool depend on the proper supply of clean, dry air at a maximum of 90 PSI. The use of an airline filter, pressure regulator, and
lubricator is recommended. Before connecting to tools, blow out the airline to remove water and dirt that may have accumulated.
HOSE AND HOSE CONNECTIONS
The air supply hose recommended is 3/8" (10mm) I.D. If an extension hose is necessary, use 1/2" (13mm) ID hose with couplings not less than 3/8" (10mm)
I.D. The tool inlet thread is 1/4" NPT.
LUBRICATION
For maximum performance and tool life, an airline lubricator, set to deliver 1 drop per minute. SIOUX No. 288 Air Motor Oil is recommended. If an airline
lubricator is not used, add 8 to 10 drops of air motor oil to the air inlet at the start of the day and run the tool for 10-20 seconds.
Do not over lubricate because excess oil may contaminate the surface being sanded.
MAINTENANCE
Water, dust and other airline contaminants can cause rust and vane sticking. After long idle periods, flush the tool with a few drops of oil and run for 10
seconds. This will help remove contaminants and reduce the formation of rust.
OPERATION
Speed of the tool may be adjusted by turning the regulator located on the handle.
