Lubrication
G-Force Nova Series Hammers are precision-made tools and should be treated as such. Only the highest quality lubrication should be used and a constant flow of oil must be maintained at all times. Recommended lubrication amount 1/3 Pint per 100 cfm per hour.
| Recommended Grades of Lubricant | |
|---|---|
ESSO |
AROX EP 150 |
MATEX |
