- 1). Check to make sure the drill is connected to an air supply chuck and that the air compressor is powered up and has air in it.
- 2). Turn the drill's pressure setting to its highest setting and turn the compressor to 90 psi if the drill will not start. The added pressure may start the drill. Set the pressure level to normal if the drill starts.
- 3). Tighten the air fitting with an adjustable wrench if air seems to be escaping or if the tool does not seem to be running at full power.
- 4). Disassemble the trigger mechanism by removing the screws with a Phillips screwdriver if the Forward/Reverse button becomes stuck. Use a soft brush or rag to remove any grease or debris that may be stuck in the switch. Reassemble the trigger.
- 5). Add air tool lubricant to the lubricant port if the drill whines or makes a grating noise when in use.
