5. ALWAYS hold the tool firmly with both hands, unless it is designed for

single hand use. NEVER place your hand or fingers in line with the blade.

6. Do not force the tool. This can cause uneven cutting, loss of accuracy and

loss of control.

AIR TOOL PRECAUTIONS

1. Inspect the tool's air hose for cracks, fraying or other faults before each

use. Discontinue use if the air hose is damaged or hissing is heard from

the air hose or connectors, while operating the tool. Replace the defective

component/air hose.

2. Do not allow people, mobile equipment or vehicles to pass over the

unprotected air hose. Position the air hose away from high traffic areas, in

a reinforced conduit or place planks on both sides of the air hose to create

a protective trench.

3. Prevent damage to the air hose by observing the following:

a. Never carry the tool by the air hose.

b. Keep the air hose behind the tool and out of the tool's work path.

c. Keep the air hose away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

d. Do not wrap the air hose around the tool as sharp edges may pierce

or crack the air hose. Coil the air hose when storing.

4. A damaged or disconnected air hose under pressure may whip around and

inflict personal injury or damage the work area. Secure the compressor's

air hose to a fixed or permanent structure with clamps or cable ties.

5. Install an in-line shutoff valve or regulator to allow immediate control over

the air supply in an emergency, even if a hose is ruptured.

6. Check the manufacturer’s maximum pressure rating for air tools and

accessories. Compressor outlet pressure must be regulated so as to never

exceed the maximum pressure rating of the tool.

VIBRATION PRECAUTIONS

1. This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration

may cause temporary or permanent physical injury, particularly to the

hands, arms and shoulders.

6 For technical questions call 1-800-665-8685

V 4.0 18 Gauge In-Line Air Shear 8654568

2. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended period should first

be examined by a doctor and then have regular medical check-ups to ensure

medical problems are not being caused by or worsened from tool use.

3. If you feel any medical symptoms related to vibrations (such as tingling,

numbness and white or blue fingers), seek medical attention as soon

as possible.

4. DO NOT use this tool if one of the following applies:

a. Pregnant

b. Impaired blood circulation to the hands

c. Past hand injuries

d. Nervous system disorders

e. Diabetes

f. Raynaud's Disease

5. Do not smoke while operating the tool. Nicotine reduces the blood flow to

the hands and fingers, increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.

6. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the effects of vibration.

7. Use the tool with the least amount of vibration, when there is a choice

between different processes.

8. Do not use for extended periods. Take frequent breaks when using this tool.

9. Let the tool do the work. Grip the tool as lightly as possible (while still

keeping safe control of it).

10. To reduce vibrations, maintain the tool as explained in this manual. If

abnormal vibrations occur, stop using this tool immediately.

UNPACKING

WARNING! Do not operate the tool if any part is missing. Replace the

ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION

Numbered references in parenthesis (#1) refer to the included Parts List.

INSTALL AIR CONNECTOR

Prepare a standard 1/4 in. NPT male air connector (sold separately) for use with

your tool.

1. Wrap the external threads of the male connector with sealant tape.

a. Wrap tape in a clockwise direction so it will not unravel.

b. Do not tape all the threads. Leave several leading threads unwrapped

for easier alignment.

2. Screw the connector into the tool's air inlet and tighten with a wrench

until snug.

3. Run the compressor at a low volume and check the connection for air

leaks. Do not use the tool until all air leaks are repaired or the faulty

component is replaced.

IMPORTANT! Vibration may cause failure if a quick coupler is connected

directly to the air tool. To overcome this, connect a leader hose to the

tool. A quick coupler may then be used to connect the leader hose to the

air line hose.

BLADE REPLACEMENT

Only use the recommended blade replacement kit for this shear (SKU 8654576).

1. Remove the lock screws (#27) and lock nuts (#22) and cutter

housing (#21).

2. Remove the center blade (#24) first then remove the left blade (#23) and

right blade (#26).

3. Install the new blades.

4. Replace the cutter housing (#21), lock screws (#27) and lock nuts (#22).

5. Tighten securely.

OPERATION

Test the shears on a piece of scrap material to determine the cutting capacity of

the blades.

1. Make sure to hold the shear with both hands safely away from the blades.

2. Position the tool near the workpiece, but do not allow the blades to overlap

it. The center blade (#24) will be underneath the workpiece. The left blade

(#23) and right blade (#26) will be above it.

3. Squeeze the trigger (#33) and allow the blades to reach full speed before

applying the tool to the workpiece.

4. Feed the blades into the workpiece. Do not force the blades into the

workpiece when cutting. Apply moderate pressure, allowing the blades to

cut without being forced.

5. Complete the cut before stopping the air shear. This will help keep the

blades from getting caught in the workpiece.

6. If the tool requires more force to accomplish the task, verify that the tool

receives sufficient, unobstructed airflow (see Specifications). If the tool

still does not have sufficient force at maximum pressure and sufficient

airflow, then a larger tool may be required.

7. Release the trigger (#33) to turn off the shear. Allow the blades to stop on

their own. Do not press against the blades to stop them.

8. Turn off the air compressor, then squeeze the trigger again to release any

remaining air pressure from the tool. Disconnect the shear from the air supply.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

1. Maintain the tool with care. A tool in good condition is efficient, easier to

control and will have fewer problems.

2. Inspect the tool fittings, alignment, hoses and power supply cord periodically.

Have damaged or worn components repaired or replaced by an authorized

technician. Only use identical replacement parts when servicing.

3. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

4. Only use accessories intended for use with this tool.

5. Keep the tool handles clean, dry and free from oil/grease at all times.

Visit www.princessauto.com for more information 9

6. Maintain the tool’s labels and name plates. These carry important information.

If unreadable or missing, contact Princess Auto Ltd. for replacements.

WARNING! Only qualified service personnel should repair the tool. An

improperly repaired tool may present a hazard to the user and/or others.

AIR TOOL LUBRICATION

NOTICE! Only use air tool oil to lubricate the tool. Other lubricants are not

suitable and will damage the tool or cause a malfunction during use.

NOTICE! Never use a penetrating oil to lubricate an air tool. Penetrating oil

acts as a solvent that will dissolve the tool’s grease packing and may

damage the o-rings, causing the tool to seize or malfunction.

1. All air tools have an internal coating of grease to prevent corrosion during shipping

and storage. Remove this grease by adding a generous amount of air tool oil in the

air inlet and then run the tool under no load until the exhaust is clear.

2. Manually add a drop or two of air tool oil into the tool’s male connector

before each use and after every hour of continuous use. The tool will not

work properly without lubrication and parts will wear prematurely.

3. Avoid adding too much air tool oil as this can cause premature power loss

and eventual tool failure. A qualified technician will need to take the tool

apart and clean out the excess oil.

4. Apply a generous amount of air tool oil to the tool before storing it for an

extended period of time (overnight, weekend, etc.). Run the tool for

approximately 30 seconds to ensure the oil is evenly distributed

throughout the tool. Store it in a clean and dry location.

STORAGE

When not in use for an extended period, apply a thin coat of lubricant to the

steel parts to avoid rust. Remove the lubricant before using the tool again.

DISPOSAL

Recycle a tool damaged beyond repair at the appropriate facility.

Contact your local municipality for a list of disposal facilities or by-laws for

electronic devices, batteries, oil or other toxic liquids.
