Troubleshooting
Saw does not start.
Check air supply connection and air compressor operation. Ensure the air pressure is at least 90 PSI (6.2bar).
Saw cuts slowly or inefficiently.
Check the blade for damage or dullness. Ensure the air pressure is at the correct level and that the air supply is sufficient.
Air leaks from the saw.
Inspect the air fittings and connections for leaks. Tighten the fittings as needed. If the leak persists, the saw may require servicing.

Air consumption of 4CFM requires a compressor that can provide adequate airflow.
The 1/4" BSP inlet may require an adapter depending on your air hose fitting.
Requires proper safety gear to operate safely
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Air Compressor Compatibility: Ensure your air compressor can provide a consistent 90PSI (6.2bar) and a minimum of 4CFM (113L/min) of air. Connect the saw to the compressor using an air hose with a 1/4" BSP fitting or appropriate adapter.
Safety First: Always wear appropriate safety gear, including eye protection, gloves, and hearing protection.
Operation: When cutting, apply even pressure and allow the saw to do the work. Avoid forcing the saw, as this can damage the blade and reduce cutting efficiency.
Blade Care: Inspect the blade before each use. Replace the blade when it becomes dull or damaged.
Maintenance: Regularly lubricate the saw with air tool oil to keep the internal parts working smoothly. Drain moisture from the air compressor regularly.
Storage: Store the air body saw in a clean, dry place when not in use.
