If too much oil seems to be spraying out, see if the oiler can be adjusted to inject less oil, or maybe wrap a cloth around the exhaust to catch it. No one likes to aspirate the oil into their lungs either hehe  |
The shop rag idea sounds good, but I first want to test the thoery. The main reason that I got the in-line oiler was becuse I thought that it was a necessity. Now, however everyone is saying that they oil their tools before they start using them. I do not mind the oil when I am working on the mechanics of the car, however when I am doing details I want to keep the area as clean as possible. I will try the shop rag idea and see how that works.
Also, what happens to pneumatic tools when they fail?
