2. INTRODUCTION & SPECIFICATION
3.1. Air Supply
3.1.1. Ensure that the grinder air valve (or throttle) is in the "off" position before connecting to the air supply.
3.1.2. You will require an air pressure between 70-90psi, and an air flow according to the specification above.
3.1.3.
WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90psi while operating the grinder.
Too high an air pressure and/or unclean air will cause excessive wear, and may be dangerous, causing
damage and/or personal injury.
3.1.4. Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the grinder and invalidate your warranty.
3.1.5. Clean air inlet filter weekly. Recommended hook-up is shown in fig.1.
3.1.6. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres).
The minimum hose diameter should be 1/4” I.D. and fittings must have the same inside dimensions.
3.1.7. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hoses for wear, and make certain that all
connections are secure.
