Always wear eye protection when operating or performing

maintenance on this tool.

Always turn off the air supply and disconnect the air

supply hose before installing, removing or adjusting any

accessory on this tool, or before performing any

maintenance on this tool.

LUBRICATION

Each time a Series QS Screwdriver is disassembled for

maintenance and repair or replacement of parts, lubricate

the tool as follows:
1.

Coat all exposed gears with Ingersoll-Rand No. 67

Grease and work some of the Grease into the gearing

of the Spindle Assembly (42).

2.

Work approximately 6 to 8 cc of Ingersoll-Rand No.

28 Grease into the ball pockets, jaws, adjusting nut

lock and shaft threads of the clutch mechanism.

3.

Use Ingersoll-Rand No. 10 Oil to lubricate the motor.

Inject approximately 1 to 2 cc of oil into the air inlet

before attaching the air hose to the tool.

SPEED ADJUSTMENT

In addition to adjustable clutches for controlling torque,

Series QS Lever Inline Screwdrivers are furnished with the

ability to precisely control speed, within certain ranges.

Setting the speed requires a tachometer.

Therefore, the adjustment, although simple, should only be

attempted by a competent technician using the proper

equipment.
The Back Cap (6) has a small, molded stud on the end face

of the Cap nearest the Exhaust Diffuser (15). That stud

controls the radial location of the Diffuser which controls

the opening size of the exhaust ports. Take an initial

reading of the tool speed by applying a tachometer with a

convex tip to the inside of the Bit Holder (84). Using the

procedure required to activate the motor of your particular

model tool, bring the motor to maximum free speed.
After determining the actual velocity, shut off the air

supply and disconnect the air line. Use a 3/4” wrench to

loosen the Inlet Bushing. The longest slot in the Exhaust

Diffuser will contain the molded stud on the Back Cap.

Rotate the Diffuser to open the exhaust ports to increase

speed or rotate it to restrict the exhaust to reduce speed.

Being careful not to allow the Diffuser to damage the

molded stud, tighten the Inlet Bushing to 15 ft-lbs. (20

Nm) torque. Connect the air line and restore the air supply

and check the velocity again. Determine which direction

you need to rotate the Diffuser to obtain the desired speed

and then rotate it accordingly. Best results are achieved by

using gradual increments and frequent tachometer

readings. Be sure to turn off the air supply and disconnect

the line when making adjustments.
