Cold weather and your air tools
By: Jason Miller When the outdoor temperature dips below 40 degrees Fahrenheit over night, it is time to change to a winter weight oil for your compression pump, engine, and your air tools. This will solve most of the cold weather problems we see. When the outside ambient temperature is below the 40 degree point your air compressor will be hard to start. An easy fix to this problem is to just warm up the air compressor, air lines and air impact wrench before you start it. Also, remember to change to thinner oils for winter use ahead of time. This can add a lot of life your air tools,impact wrench, etc.. and make life generally easier on a cold morning. And remember your air tool's greatest enemy,water, is always present. It will probably be frozen in the air lines. Another reason why warming up your equipment above the freezing point is a really good idea. Always drain your air tanks of excess water at the end of the work day. Remember a happy impact wrench is a productive impact wrench. About the AuthorWebmaster for Red Hill Supply - Online Air Tools
