Why should pneumatic sheet metal tools be oiled daily?

Pneumatic tools need light oil at the air inlet before use. A dry air hammer can seize, slow production, and wreck the tool.

["You are knocking down a continuous run of seams using a pneumatic air hammer, but the internal piston suddenly seizes up and jams halfway through the shift because you haven't oiled the tool line all week.", 'Pneumatic tools need light oil at the air inlet before use. A dry air hammer can seize, slow production, and wreck the tool. The likely recovery is to check the condition, correct prep/setup if it is within your assignment, and bring the foreman clean information before the work creates rework overhead.']
