5. Configuració

1. Desembalatge: Carefully remove the air scraper and any accessories from its packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage.
2. Connexió de subministrament d'aire: Ensure your air compressor is off and the air line is depressurized. Connect a suitable air hose (minimum 3/8 inch inner diameter recommended) to the air inlet of the scraper. Use thread sealant tape on the air inlet threads for a secure, leak-free connection.
3. Regulator and Lubricator: It is highly recommended to use an in-line air filter/regulator/lubricator unit. Set the air regulator to 90 PSI. Add a few drops of pneumatic tool oil to the air inlet if an automatic lubricator is not used.
4. Instal·lació de la fulla: With the air supply disconnected, pull back the locking collar on the tool's head. Insert the shank of the 4-inch scraper blade into the tool until it seats firmly. Release the locking collar to secure the blade. Gently tug on the blade to ensure it is locked in place.
5. Initial Air Test: Connect the air supply and slowly turn on the compressor. Check all connections for air leaks using soapy water. If leaks are present, tighten connections or reapply thread sealant.

Once the air scraper is properly set up and safety precautions are observed, you can begin operation.

1. Agarre: Hold the long reach air scraper firmly with both hands, utilizing the cushion grip for stability and control.
2. Posicionament: Position the 4-inch wide scraper blade against the material you intend to remove. Angle the blade slightly to allow it to get under the material.
3. Activació: Press the paddle trigger to activate the pneumatic action. The tool will begin to deliver up to 2100 BPM, rapidly chipping away at the material.
4. Scraping Technique: Apply steady, even pressure. Guide the tool across the surface, allowing the pneumatic action to do the work. Avoid forcing the tool, as this can reduce efficiency and potentially damage the blade or surface.
5. Material Removal: For carpet glue, linoleum, or tiles, work in small sections, gradually removing layers. The long reach design helps maintain an ergonomic posture during extended use.
6. Desactivació: Release the paddle trigger to stop the pneumatic action.

Nota: Always disconnect the air supply when not in use or before performing any adjustments or maintenance.

7. Manteniment

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your air scraper.
