Safety information
for air tools
Basic safety measures must be
followed when using air tools to eliminate the risk
of fire, electric shock and personal injury. Please be
sure to read and follow the notices in this operating
manual prior to the first use and store them in a safe
place. The manufacturer assumes no liability for da-
mages or personal injury resulting from failure to
follow these operating instructions.
The hazards listed are foreseeable for general use of
handheld air impact drivers. However, the user must
also assess specific risks which may arise from its use.
DANGER!
Keep your hands or
other limbs out of reach of rotating
parts. Injuries may otherwise occur.
CRUSHING HAZARD!
Keep hands away from the counter bearing
(e.g. box spanner) during use. This particularly
applies when removing screws in tight work en-
vironments.
RISK OF INJURY!
Dis-
connect the compressed air before changing
tools, adjustments and maintenance.
EXPLOSION HAZARD!
Never use petrol or other flammable liquids to
clean the air tool! Sparks could ignite residual
vapours inside the compressed air tool resulting
in explosion. Do not use the tool in explosive
environments with flammable liquids, gasses or
dust. Never work on materials which are or po-
tentially could be highly flammable or explosive.
In the cases of multiple hazards the safety in-
structions must be read and understood before
attaching, operating, repairing and exchanging
accessories and before working near the drill.
Otherwise severe bodily injuries may result.
The drill should only be set up, adjusted or
used by qualified and trained operators.
Never modify the drill. Modifications may re-
duce the effectiveness of safety measures and
increase operator risks.
Do not lose the safety instructions – hand them
to the operator.
Never use a damaged machine on screw con-
nections.
Regularly maintain machines to verify all required
rated values and markings such as rated speed
or rated air pressure are legible on the machine.
If necessary, the user must contact the manufac-
turer for replacement labels for markings.
Only use the equipment for applications for
which it was designed!
Do not overburden the device.
Never use hydrogen, oxygen, car-
bon dioxide or other bottled gasses
to power this tool as doing so may
result in explosion, thus severe injuries.
Regularly maintain and clean the device as
required (see chapters „Maintenance“ and
Cleaning and care“).
Check the device for damage prior to initial
operation. Always verify the tool‘s proper con-
dition before every use.
Remain alert at all times! Unforeseen machine
movement due to reaction forces or the tool or
counter bearing breaking may result in injuries.
Unforeseen tool movements may result in ha-
zardous situations.
Crushing risk based on the torque between the
counter bearing and the work piece.
Keep hands away from the tool being used to
prevent the risk of injuries.
Only use holders and adapters in good condi-
tion and intended for use with the machines
described here.
Avoid an unnatural posture. Always maintain a
proper footing and balance. This will allow you
