Connection to the Air Supply
The air tool is designed for an operating pressure of
6.3 bar (91 psi). For maximum performance, the inner
diameter of the hose is 10 mm with connection
threads of G 1/4". To maintain full performance, use
only hoses with a maximum length of 4 m.
The supplied air must be free of foreign material and
moisture to protect the air tool from damage, contam-
ination, and rust.
The use of a compressed air maintenance unit is
necessary.
This ensures optimum functioning of compressed air
tools. Observe the operating instructions of the main-
tenance unit.
All fittings, connecting lines, and hoses must be di-
mensioned for the required air pressure and volume.
Avoid restrictions in the air supply resulting from, e.g.,
pinching, kinking, or stretching!
In case of doubt, measure the pressure with a pres-
sure gauge at the air inlet with the tool switched on.
Putting into Operation
The air tool operates optimally with a pressure of
6.3 bar (91 psi) measured at the air inlet with the tool
running.
Switching On/Off
In the event of an interruption of the air supply
or reduced operating pressure, switch off the
tool. Check the operating pressure and start
again when the pressure returns to normal.
Switching on:
Press the lever switch 2 and keep it
pressed down during the operation.

Switching off:
Release the lever switch 2.

Connection of the Air Supply to the Air Tool
Screw the hose nipple 1 into the connector at the air
inlet 17.

Loosen the hose clamps 18 of the air inlet hose 19
with a maximum length of 4 m and attach the air inlet
hose over the hose nipple 1 by firmly tightening the
hose clamp.
Always connect the air inlet hose 19 first to the
tool, then to the maintenance unit.
Slip the air inlet hose 19 over the coupling nipple 20
and attach the air inlet hose by firmly tightening the
hose clamp 18.
Screw a quick hose connector 21 into the air outlet of
the maintenance unit 22. Quick hose connectors
make possible a quick connection and, when uncou-
pled, they shut off the air supply automatically.
Take care that you do not start the tool accidentally
when you insert the coupling nipple 20 into the coupler
21.
Working Instructions
Disconnect the air hose from the air supply be-
fore making any adjustments, changing acces-
sories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the tool acciden-
tally.
Excess loads that cause the tool to stall or reduce
speed will not damage the motor.
In the event of an interruption of the air supply
or reduced operating pressure, switch off the
tool. Check the operating pressure and start
again when the pressure returns to normal.
