• Dynabrade Air Power Tools are designed to operate at 90 PSIG

(6.2 Bar) maximum air pressure at the tool inlet, when the tool is

running. Use recommended regulator to control air pressure.

• Ideally the air supply should be free from moisture. To facilitate

removing moisture from air supply, the installation of a refrigerated

air dryer after the compressor and the use of drain valves at each

tool station is recommended.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

Important: To keep tool safe, a Preventative Maintenance Program is

recommended. The program should included inspection of the tool and all

related accessories and consumables, including air lines, pressure regulators,

filters, oilers, etc. refer to CAGI B186.1 for additional maintenance information.

If accessory or tool breakage occurs, investigate failure to determine the cause

and correct before issuing tool for work. Use the following schedule as a

starting point in developing a Preventative Maintenance Program. If tool does

not operate properly (RPM, Vibration, Start/Stop) after these scheduled

checks or at any time, the tool must be repaired and corrected before returning

tool to use.

INSTALLATION

• To ensure long life and dependable service, use a Closed Loop Air System

and Filter-Regulator-Lubricator as diagramed below.

• Each tool should have its own dedicated hose connected to an air supply

manifold. Quick disconnects should be installed at the manifold in an effort

to reduce contamination into the tool.

• It is strongly recommended that all Dynabrade rotary vane air tools be used

with a Filter-Regulator-Lubricator to minimize the possibility of misuse due

to unclean air, wet air or insufficient lubrication. Dynabrade recommends the

following: 10681 Air Line Filter-Regulator-Lubricator — Provides accurate

air pressure regulation, two-stage filtration of water contaminants and

micro-mist lubrication of pneumatic components.

• Dynabrade recommends one drop of air lube per minute for each 20 SCFM

(example: if the tool specification states 40 SCFM, set the drip rate on the

filter-lubricator to 2 drops per minute) Dynabrade Air Lube (P/N 95842:

1pt/473ml) is recommended.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

Daily (every 8 hours):

• Inspect tool and accessories for damage or broken parts. Replace items

as necessary to ensure proper operation and safety.

• Lubricate motor as recommended. Use Dynabrade Air Lube (P/N 95842:

1pt/473ml) 10W/NR. (1 Drop per minute of air lube per 20 SCFM.)

• Check air line pressure with a gage. (MAX. 90 PSIG or 6.2 Bar operating

pressure at the air inlet of the tool.)

• Right angled gear and wick system through gear case grease fitting with

3 plunges of gear oil (P/N 95848) and grease gun (P/N 95541). (Prime

grease gun prior to greasing.)

• Check tool for proper operation: If operating improperly or demonstrates

unusual vibration, the tool must be serviced and problem corrected before

further use.

Every 20 Hours or Once a Week Which Ever Comes First:

• Check free speed of tool without the abrasive accessory mounted. Measure

RPM (speed) with tachometer and with air pressure set at 90 PSIG while the

tool is running. If a governed tool is operating at a higher speed than the

RPM marked on the tool housing, the tool must be serviced and corrected

before use. A non-governed tool may exceed the RPM marked on the tool

by 10% when operated at free speed with no accessories.

• If tool is running fast look for worn, damaged or missing governors, air

control rings and silencers. Special care must be taken when servicing

governors and speed control devices. Injection molded governor assemblies

are non-serviceable and must be replaced.

• If tool is running slow look for clogged inlet screen, air stream, silencer(s)

or a malfunctioning governor (see concerns for servicing governors).

Service as required.

Every 50 Hours:

• Lubricate planetary gears through gear case grease fitting with 3 plunges

of grease (P/N 95542) and grease gun (P/N 95541). (Prime grease gun

prior to greasing.)

REPAIR

• Use only genuine Dynabrade replacement parts to ensure quality. To order

replacement parts, specify Model#, Serial# and RPM of your air tool.

• Mineral spirits are recommended when cleaning the tool and parts. Do

not clean tool or parts with any solvents or oils containing acids, esters,

ketones, chlorinated hydrocarbons or nitro carbons.

• DO NOT clean or maintain tools with chemicals that have a low flash point

(example: WD-40

• Motor Tune-Up Kit are available (when applicable) which includes high wear

and medium wear motor parts.

• Air tool markings must be kept legible at all times, if not, reorder housing

and replace. User is responsible for maintaining specification information.

• After maintenance is performed on tool, add a few drops of Dynabrade

Air Lube (P/N 95842) to the tool inlet and start the tool a few times

to lubricate air motor. Verify RPM (per 20 hr maintenance schedule),

vibration and operation.

HANDLING & STORAGE

• Use of tool rests, hangers and/or balancers is recommended.

• Protect tool inlet from debris (see Notice).

• DO NOT carry tool by air hose or near the tool throttle lever.

• Store accessories in protective racks or compartments to prevent damage.

• Follow the handling instructions outlined in the operating instructions when

carrying the tool and when changing accessories.

• Protect accessories from exposure to water, solvents, high humidity,

freezing temperature and extreme temperature changes.

END OF USE/ DISPOSAL

When tool has reached its end of useful service, disassemble tool into its

primary components (i.e. steel, aluminum and plastic part) and recycle or discard

per local, state and/or federal regulations as to not harm the environment.

NOTICE

All Dynabrade motors use the highest quality parts and metals available and

are machined to exacting tolerances. The failure of quality pneumatic motors

can most often be traced to an unclean air supply or the lack of lubrication.

Air pressure easily forces dirt or water contained in the air supply into motor

bearings causing early failure. It often scores the cylinder walls and the rotor

blades resulting in limited efficiency and power. Our warranty obligation is

contingent upon proper use of our tools and cannot apply to equipment

which has been subjected to misuse such as unclean air, wet air or a lack

of lubrication during the use of this tool.

Important: All Dynabrade air tools must be used with a Filter-Regulator-Lubricator to maintain all warranties.

Operating Instructions:

Warning: Eye, face, respiratory, sound and body protection must be worn while operating power tools. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.

Follow safety procedures posted in workplace.

1. With power source disconnected from tool, securely fasten abrasive/accessory on tool.

2. Install air fitting into inlet bushing of tool. Important: Secure inlet bushing of tool with a wrench before attempting to install the air fitting to avoid

damaging valve body housing.

3. Connect power source to tool. Be careful not to depress throttle lever in the process.

4. Check tool speed with tachometer. If tool is operating at a higher speed than the RPM marked on the tool or operating improperly

, the tool should be

serviced to correct the cause before use.

5. Air tools are not intended for use in explosive atmospheres and are not insulated for contact with electrical power sources. Sanding/Grinding certain

materials can create explosive dust. It is the employers responsibility to notify the user of acceptable dust levels. Sanding/Grinding can cause sparks

which can cause fires or explosions. It is the users responsibility to make sure the work area is free of flammable materials.

Maintenance Instructions:

1. Check tool speed regularly with a tachometer. If tool is operating at a higher speed than the RPM marked on the tool, the tool should be serviced to

correct the cause before use.

2. Some silencers on air tools may clog with use. Clean and replace as required.

3. All Dynabrade rotary vane style air motors should be lubricated. Dynabrade recommends one drop of air lube per minute for each 10 SCFM

(example: if the tool specifications state 40 SCFM, set the drip rate of your filter-lubricator at 4 drops per minute).
