Do not expose the tool to direct sunrays,
heat sources, rain and jets of water. Do
not smoke near the equipment and during
operations (keep at a distance of at least
1 m).
The work area must be monitored by the
operator while the equipment is operating.
ATTENTION: R134a and/or R1234yf
refrigerant fumes/gases are heavier than
air and can gather on the floor or inside
cavities/holes and cause choke by
reducing the oxygen available for
breathing.
At high temperatures, the refrigerant
breaks down releasing toxic and
aggressive substances, harmful for the
operator and the environment.) Avoid
inhaling the system coolants and oils.
Exposure can irritate eyes and the
respiratory tract.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION: Connect
the power cord solely to a mains supply
which conforms to the ratings on the
machine's nameplate (mounted on its
side). Make sure the mains socket is
grounded.
Maximum impedance allowed in the point
of connection to the mains shall comply
with standard EN 61000-3-11. Starting
currents can cause short voltage drops,
which may affect other equipments under
unfavourable conditions. If impedance in
the point of connection to the mains is
not compliant, this may lead to
interference so please consult the
electrical power network operator before
connecting the equipment.
Never use the service station with a
defective power cord or a different one
from that supplied with the machine. If
damaged, immediately have it replaced
with an original spare part or equivalent
by a MAHLE centre. Before opening the
service station, extract completely the
supply cable from the plug, or you can
get an electric shock.
Do not tamper with or bypass the safety
equipment and settings.
Do not leave the machine powered up
when not in use; shut off the power
supply before leaving the equipment
unused for a long time. Do not forget that
the tool (pressure tool) must always be
protected.
REFRIGERANTS AND LUBRICANTS -
PERSONAL SAFETY EQUIPMENT AND
PRECAUTIONS: The refrigerants and the
pressure cylinders have to be handled
with care, otherwise there will be possible
health risks.
The operator must wear safety glasses,
gloves and protective clothing suitable to
the work. Contact with the refrigerant can
cause blindness (eyes) and other physical
damages (freezing) to the operator. Avoid
contact with the skin; the refrigerant's low
boiling point (approx. –26 °C for R134a
and approx. -30 °C for R1234yf) can
cause freezing burns.
Further information about safety can be
obtained from the safety sheets of
lubricant and refrigerant producers.
Do not inhale refrigerant or oil vapor.
Keep away from the vent valves and
ventilation coupling, especially when non-
condensable gas is being vented.
Never direct the quick couplings (taps)
towards your face or other persons or
animals.
