Air Supply (Recommended hook-up is shown in fig. 1.)
3.1.1. Ensure grinder throttle is in the "off" position before connecting to the air supply.
3.1.2. You will require an air pressure of 90psi and an air flow of 3.0cfm.
3.1.3. WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90psi. Too high an air
pressure or unclean air will shorten the life of the grinder due to excessive wear, and
may be dangerous, causing damage and/or personal injury.
3.1.4. Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the grinder.
3.1.5. Clean compressor air inlet filter weekly.
3.1.6. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8
metres). The minimum hose size should be 1/4” I.D. and fittings must have the same internal
bore.
3.1.7. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hose for wear and make certain
that all connections are secure.
3.2. Couplings
Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the grinder.
To overcome this, connect a leader hose to the grinder. A quick change coupling may then be
used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose. (See figs. 1 & 2.
3. PREPARING DRILL FOR USE
4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

below the collet) to prevent the shaft from rotating. Loosen the collet using the larger spanner
and drop the shaft of the selected grinding tip into the collet. Tighten the collet until the shaft
of the grinding tip is secuely held.

Risk of Hand Arm Vibration Injury.
The GSA672 Long Reach Air Die Grinder, when operated in accordance with these instructions and tested in accordance with
EN 28662-1: 1993 results in the following vibration emission declared in accordance with BS EN12096: 1996.
Measured vibration emission value: .................. 3.11m/s²
Uncertainty: ........................................... 1.24m/s²
These values are suitable for comparison with emission levels of other tools that have been subject to the same test.
This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is inadequately managed.
Recommended Measures to reduce risk of hand-arm vibration syndrome: This item represents a low Hand Arm Vibration
risk to users. The calculated maximum usage period exceeds 8 hours. We recommend appropriate safety equipment is utilised
and regular breaks for the operator are employed to reduce any residual risk of fatigue or repetitive strain injury.
