oilless air compressor & tools?

I recently purchased the Craftsman oilless air compressor and air guns tool kit. It came with a bottle of oil (and people have told me not to forget to oil after I am done) but I can not figure out WHAT I am supposed to oil. The manuals all say these are oil less tools that don’t require oiling. So…what should I oil????

    When you use a compressor it produces condensation….Also you should drain your tanks at the end of the day….That’s why you put a couple of drops of oil in your tools before and after use….oil-less just means you don’t have to put compressor oil….Air tool oil: Yes

    I don’t believe you need to oil anything

    the oil is for the nail guns, put a few drops in the end gun that attaches to the air hose

    Most nail guns require a drop or two of oil in the inlet air port from time to time. Most say to do it everytime you use the gun. That may be a bit more than necessary but I don’t think it hurts.
