At  the  end  of  each  workday,  2-3  drops  of  AIR-008, solvent  free  oil 
(included with each polisher) should be placed in the air inlet at the base 
of the tool. Rotate the spindle counter clockwise, by hand 3-4 revolutions. 
(Replacement containers of oil may be purchased from Alpha Professional 
Tools® Part # AIR-008.)
Automatic oilers are not recommended: the volume, grade, and composition 
of oil used may cause premature failure.
In-line air dryers are recommended to extend the life of the tool. 
An  in-line  filter  /  regulator  is  recommended  to  remove  water  and  air  line 
contamination before it can get into the tool.  
Old  or  worn  compressors,  which  emit  oil  through  the  air  lines,  can 
dramatically shorten the life of the tool.
Do  not  leave  the  tool  submersed  in  water.  This  could  expose  the  inner 
moving parts to moisture, which will shorten the life of the tool.
Do not leave threaded accessories (backer pads, core drill bits, profilers) 
on  the  spindle  of  tool  for  extended  periods  of  time;  this  may  result  in 
making it difficult to remove these accessories.
Excessive force or impact to the spindle may result in premature failure of 
gears and/or bearings, which may not be immediately evident.
Operating the tool at a pressure that exceeds the recommended operating 
specifications  of  6  bars  (87  psi)  or  without  the  silencer  may  result  in 
premature failure of the tool.
New grease should be added and purged from the gearbox periodically.
