STOraGe

The air tool must be lubricated before
storing. Follow the air motor lubrication
instructions with an exception to step 4. Run
the sander for only 2 to 3 seconds so more oil
will remain in the air tool when storing.

For information regarding the operation or
repair of this product, please call 1-800-543-
6400.

Never carry a

tool by the hose

or pull the hose to move the tool or

a compressor. Keep hoses away from

heat, oil and sharp edges. Replace any
hose that is damaged, weak or worn.

Using fittings or air hoses which are too small
can create a pressure drop and reduce the
power of the tool. A 3/8” (I.D.) fitting with
1/4” NPT threads is recommended. Most
compressors are shipped with a short, 1/4”
I.D. hose. For proper performance and more
convenience, use a 3/8” I.D. hose. Hoses
longer than 50 feet should have a 1/2” I.D.

Troubleshooting Chart

Symptom

Possible Cause(s)

Corrective action

Tool runs slowly or will not operate.

1. Grit or gum in tool

1. Flush the tool with Campbell Hausfeld air tool oil, gum

solvent, or an equal mixture of SAE 10 motor oil and
kerosene. If Campbell Hausfeld oil is not used, lubricate
the tool after cleaning

2. No oil in tool

2. Lubricate the tool according to the lubrication

instructions in this manual

3. Low air pressure

3a. Adjust the regulator on the tool to the maximum setting

(If applicable)

3b. Adjust the compressor regulator to tool maximum while

the tool is running free

4. Air hose leaks

4. Tighten and seal hose fittings if leaks are found

5. Pressure drops

5a. Be sure the hose is the proper size. Long hoses or tools

using large volumes of air may require a hose with an
I.D. of 1/2” or larger depending on the total length of
the hose

5b. Do not use multiple number of hoses connected together

with quick connect fittings. This causes additional
pressure drops and reduces the tool power. Directly
connect the hoses together

6. Regulator set too low

6. Adjust regulator until tool reaches maximum speed

Moisture blowing out of tool

1. Water in tank

1. Drain tank. (See air compressor manual). Oil tool and

run until no water is evident. Oil tool again and run 1-2
seconds

2. Water in the air lines/hoses

2a. Install a water separator/filter (PA2121). NOTE: Separators

only work properly when the air passing through the
separator is cool. Locate the separator/filter as far as
possible from the compressor

2b. Install an air dryer

2c. Anytime water enters the tool, the tool should be oiled

immediately

Sander stops when applied to work surface

Spindle lock is in the locked

position
