Lubricate 3x rivet gun

I bought and have been using a new 3x rivet gun from clevelandtool. It works great and I want to make sure it keeps on working that way. I've never owned any pneumatic tools and would like to know about any maintenance I should be performing.

Do I need to/ How do I lubricate one of these so that it keeps on working?

I did try a little google foo. but I figure this is a better place to look for advice. (and maybe it'll help the next noob)
 
Just put a couple drops of air tool oil in the air inlet of the gun before each use. Don't overdo it. Less is more. That's about it.
 
Air tool oil

A few drops in the air inlet. Wrap a rag around it for the first use. It will spew oil vapor.
Do not oil a pneumatic squeezer.
