4. Special Safety Instructions
4.1
Risks associated with ejected parts
Disconnect the air tool from the compressed air
supply before replacing the mounted tool or acces-
sory parts, and also before carrying out repairs or
settings.
If either the workpiece, accessory parts or the air
tool breaks, parts may be ejected at high speed.
While operating, maintaining or repairing the air
tool, or replacing accessory parts, you must always
wear impact-resistant safety goggles. The degree
of protection required for each individual task must
be evaluated separately in each case.
Wear a safety helmet if carrying out work above
your head. Also ensure that no other people are
placed at risk.
Ensure that the workpiece is securely attached.
4.2
Risks associated with items catching/
getting entwined
Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing and gloves at a safe
distance from the air tool and moving parts. Loose
clothing, jewellery or long hair could catch in moving
parts. There is a risk of injury in this case.
4.3
Risks during operation
When using the air tool, the operator's hands may
be exposed to potential risk of cuts, abrasions and
heat damage. To protect your hands, wear suitable
gloves.
The operator and maintenance staff must be physi-
cally capable of handling the size, weight and power
output of the air tool.
Make sure you hold the air tool correctly: since you
must be prepared to counter any standard or unex-
pected movements, keep both hands ready.
Ensure you stand in a safe position and keep your
balance at all times.
Avoid accidental operation. If the air supply is inter-
rupted, switch off the air tool using the On/Off
switch.
Only use lubricants that have been recommended
by the manufacturer.
