Operation and Maintenance Guide Piston Air Motor Series
Warning
Check the site to make sure that the piston
motor will be adequately ventilated and that
there is no external heat input.
Installation Instructions
An automatic air line lubricator should be in-
stalled in the air line as close as possible and no
more than 18inches (1/2 meter) from the air
motor. Install the lubricator level with or above
the air motor so that the oil mist will blow direct-
ly into or fall down into the motor. Install a ilter
in the air line before the connection to the motor.
Next install an air pressure regulator to control
motor speed and torque.
Clean the compressed air connection with low
pressure air to remove any dirt from the line
before connecting to the ports. Use the proper
sized fasteners. For the most ecient output and
control of speed, use air lines that are the same
size as the motor inlet port if the connection is
less than 7 feet (2 meters). For longer connec-
tions, use the next pipe size larger than the motor
intake port. Connect lines to motor in the proper
direction
Safety wear mandatory while operating Piston
motor
Air stream from product may contain solid o
liquid particle that can result eye or skin dam
age.Eye and face and ear protection must be
worn at all times during operation
Suitable gloves must be worn at all times during
operation.
Daily Before Operating
1. Disconnect air line and muer.
2. Add ushing solvent directly into motor. If
using liquid solvent pour in 1 to 2 ounces of
recommended oil into the motor.
3. Rotate the sha by hand in both directions for
a few minutes.
4. You must wear eye protection for this step.
Cover exhaust with a cloth and reconnect the
air line.
5. DO NOT use kerosene or ANY other
combustible solvents to ush this product.
6. Restart the motor at a low pressure of
approximately 10 PSI/0.7 bar until there is no
trace of solvent in the exhaust air.
7. Listen for changes in the sound of the motor.
If motor sounds smooth, you are nished.
If motor does not sound like it running
smoothly, installing a service kit will be
required.
Air Supply
e air should be clean and dry. Supply
air pressure maximum 7kg/cm²(100 psi) for
Lubricated and maximum 5.6 kg/cm²(80 psi) for
Lube-free.
Hoses
• Daily before operation check the hoses,
especially the high pressure hoses for damage
or leaks
• Use genuine Teryair spares and if possible
mention the serial number of the piston
motor when ordering spares.
Operating instructions
Piston motors are rugged dependable product
designed to give you years of satisfactory
service. Follow the instructions mentioned here
to enhance life and performance. Check the
direction of the motor airow. A single rotation
motor will operate properly only in one
direction.Single rotation motors require a
muer to be connected to the air port. Remove
the plastic shipping plugs from the ports. Save
plugs for future use during shutdown.
