Additional safety instructions
Do not operate the compressor in the rain.
When used in combination with spraying accessories
(e.g. paint spray gun), keep the spray equipment away
from the device when filling and do not spray towards
the compressor.
Observe the corresponding operating manuals of
the respective compressed air tools / compressed
air attachments!
The following general instructions must also be ob-
served:
Safety instructions for working with compressed
air and air blow guns
•
Ensure there is sufficient distance to the product, at
least 2.50 m, and keep the compressed air tools /
compressed air attachments away from the com-
pressor during operation.
• Compressor pump and lines reach high tempera-
tures during operation. Touching them will cause
burns.
• The air drawn in by the compressor must be kept
free of impurities that can cause fires or explosions
in the compressor pump.
• When disconnecting the hose coupling, hold the
coupling piece of the hose firmly with your hand.
This will ensure that you avoid injuries caused by
the hose recoiling.
• Wear safety goggles when working with the air blow
gun. Minor injuries can be caused by foreign objects
and blown away parts.
• Wear safety goggles and a respirator when working
with the compressed air pistol. Dusts are harmful to
health! Minor injuries can be caused by foreign ob-
jects and blown away parts.
• Do not blow on people or clean clothing whilst on the
body with the air blow gun. Danger of injury!
Safety instructions when using spraying attach-
ments (e.g. paint sprayers)
1. Keep the spray attachment away from the com-
pressor when filling so that no liquid comes into
contact with the compressor.
2. Never spray in the direction of the compressor
when using the spraying attachments (e.g. paint
sprayers). Moisture can lead to electrical hazards!
3.
Do not use paints or solvents with a flash point of
less than 55°C. Risk of explosion!
- Damaged switches must be replaced at a cus-
tomer service workshop.
- Do not use any faulty or damaged connection
cables.
- Do not use any electric tool on which the switch
cannot be switched on and off.
15.
Have your electric tool repaired by a qualified elec
-
trician
- This electric tool conforms to the applicable safe-
ty regulations. Repairs may only be performed by
an electrician using original spare parts. Other-
wise accidents can occur.
16. Attention!
- For your own safety, only use accessories and
additional equipment that are indicated in the
operating manual or have been recommended or
indicated by the manufacturer. Use of other tools
or accessories that those recommended in the
operating manual or in the catalogue could rep-
resent a personal danger to you.
17. Noise
- Wear hearing protection when using the com-
pressor.
18. Replacing the connection line
- If the connection line is damaged, it must be re-
placed by the manufacturer or an electrician to
avoid danger. Danger due to electrical shocks
19. Filling tyres
-
Check the tyre pressure immediately after filling
using a suitable pressure gauge, e.g. at a petrol
station.
20. Street-legal compressors in construction site op-
eration
-
Ensure that all hoses and fixtures are suitable for
the maximum permissible working pressure of the
compressor.
21. Set-up location
-
Only set up the compressor on a flat surface.
22. It is recommended to equip the feed hoses with a
safety cable in case of pressure above 7 bar, e.g.
using a wire cable.
23. Avoid over-stressing the piping system by using
flexible hose connections to prevent kinking.
24. Use a residual current circuit breaker with a trigger
current of 30 mA or less. Using a fault-current cir-
cuit breaker reduces the risk of an electric shock.
