steve_d Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Couple of drips of tool oil into the hose fitting before you use the tool each day will be fine. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mortus Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 you can oil air tools with WD40 but you NEVER EVER EVER!! oil the fittings on compressed oxygen or gas oil + oxygen = bomb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missingsid Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 you can oil air tools with WD40but you NEVER EVER EVER!! oil the fittings on compressed oxygen or gas oil + oxygen = bomb Who uses compressed Oxygen???? We are talking compressed Air here and if it was a time bomb no one would fit/sell inline oiler equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clbarclay Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I use compressed oxygen, though not for running air tools. If you have an in line oiler, then you will also need a seperate line that isn't oiled for running other air tools like tyre inflators and nozzles.
