Service instructions
Tightening of threaded connections
The tightening torques indicated in the spare parts list are established to achieve
the correct clamping force and to prevent the parts from coming loose. When
serviced these parts must be able to open up without being destroyed. In special
circumstances (depending on application and usage) the parts may however
come loose after some time of operation. In such cases the torque could be in-
creased 10-20% and if necessary some type of low or medium threadlocking
fluid could also be applied.
Example
Assembly
Remove silencer and air nipple. Then completely remove the old Rubber cover.
Fix the Motor casing in a vice. To easy the assembly put some soap-water mix-
ture on the new Rubber cover ends. Make a loop of a heawy duty strap and then
put the loop of strap through the Rubber cover and then around the Handle, see
illustration 1 below. Pull on strap until Rubber cover is completely over the
lower part of handle.
Gluing
When cover is in correct position clean the ends of cover from soap. Then care-
fully apply glue (Loctite 406) on the inside around edges and in the middle of
cover, see illustration 2 below. It is especially important that the surface near
the trigger is carefully coated with glue. Press Rubber cover so it fits nice and
thight, see illustration 3 below.
