Pneumatic Hand Tools and
it’s attachment
Pneumatic Tools
Pneumatic Tools are run by
compressed air
They greatly speed up your work
They can dangerous to you and
the equipment you are working
on.
Air Lines
Pneumatic Tools require
compressed air delivered
through flexible air lines
Coil up lines after each use to
avoid tripping, or damage to
the air line.
Inspect regularly and do not
ignore small leaks in air line
When an air line breaks, the compressed air will cause
the hose to whip around violently!
Do not try to catch a broken air line that is whipping
around
Disconnect air line from wall fitting IMMEDIATELY!
Air Quality
Compressed air holds water
Compressor should be drained daily.
All pneumatic tools should be oiled regularly
You may use a few drops of air tool oil at the air inlet.
Oil Air Tools Regularly
Pneumatic (air) Tools
Air tools are NOISY!
Ear protection can be provided just
ASK!
Impact Wrenches
Impact Wrenches
Impact Wrenches can be powered by air, electricity, or
with a hammer
Pneumatic (air) powered impacts have the most power
and torque.
Electric imparts are much quieter
Impact drivers (hit them with a hammer) are useful for
stubborn Phillips head screws
Impact Driver
Impact Wrenches
Impact wrenches can easily twist off a stuck nut or bolt
Impact wrenches should not be used to tighten fasteners.
They will easily over-tighten nuts and bolts
Air Ratchets
Air ratchets can quickly spin on or off a nut or bolt.
If the bolt is stuck, using an air ratchet can “bust your
knuckles”
Use a breaker bar to break loose stuck fasteners
Consider a cordless ratchet, it is just as fast, MUCH
quieter and more convenient (no air lines)
Cordless (electric) Ratchets
Cordless ratchets are just as fast as air ratchets
They are MUCH quieter.
…and more convenient (no air lines)
Pneumatic Hammers & Chisels
Air chisels are VERY noisy!
They are also dangerous to you and the vehicle!
Do not use this tool without special instruction.
Blow Guns
These tools use compressed air to dry off parts that have
been washed in solvent
They are very noisy
They should NOT be used to clean off yourself, or
equipment.
The End!
