Sealey SA36 - Manual (Page 2)

3.1. Air Supply
3.1.1. Ensure that the tool air valve is in the "Off" position before connecting to the air supply.
3.1.2.

WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90 psi (6.2 bar) while
operating the tool. Too high an air pressure and/or unclean air will shorten the life of the tool
due to excessive wear and may be dangerous causing damage and/or personal injury.
3.1.3. Drain the compressor air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the tool.
3.1.4. Clean the compressor air inlet filter weekly. Recommended hook-up is shown in fig. 1.
3.1.5. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8
metres). The minimum hose bore should be 3/8” and fittings must have the same inside
dimensions.
3.1.6. Keep the hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hose for wear, and make certain
that all connections are secure.
3.2. Couplings
Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the tool.
To overcome this, connect a leader hose to the tool. A quick change coupling may then be
used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose. See figs. 1 & 2.
3. PREPARING FOR USE

WARNING! Ensure that you read, understand and apply the safety instructions.
4.1. Connect the tool to the air supply.
4.2. To start the tool, hold firmly and squeeze the throttle lever. The clamp will move down,
punching a hole/forming a flange, as required.
4.3. Release the lever and the clamp will rise allowing the tool to be positioned for the next
operation.
4.4. After use, disconnect the tool from the air supply, clean and store in a safe, dry, childproof
location.
