dents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
There is a risk of bursting if the tool is damaged.
h.
Use only accessories that are identified by the
manufacturer for the specific tool model.
Use of
an accessory not intended for use with the spe-
cific tool model, increases the risk of injury to
persons.
4 SERVICE
a.
Tool service must be performed only by quali-
fied repair personnel.
b.
When servicing a tool, use only identical re-
placement parts. Use only authorized parts.
c.
Use only the lubricants supplied with the tool or
specified by the manufacturer.
5 AIR SOURCE
a.
Never connect to an air source that is capable of
exceeding 200 psi.
Over pressurizing the tool is
able to result in bursting, abnormal operation,
breakage of the tool or serious injury to persons.
Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air at
the rated pressure or within the rated pressure
range as marked on the tool. Always verify prior
to using the tool that the air source has been ad-
justed to the rated air pressure or within the rated
air-pressure range.
b.
Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible
gases or any bottled gas as an air source for the
tool.
Such gases are capable of explosion and se-
rious injury to persons.
Danger from ejected parts
– In the event the workpiece, accessory or machine
parts break parts may be ejected at high speed.
– Wear impact-resistant protective goggles.
– Wear a helmet when doing overhead work. Also
assess the risks for other people.
– Secure the workpiece. Use clamping devices or a
vice to hold the workpiece firmly.
Risk of getting caught
– Wear suitable protective clothing! Do not wear
loose clothing or jewellery. They can be caught by
moving parts. Wear a hair net if you have long
hair.
Risks during operation
– Wear protective gloves.
– Operating and maintenance personnel must be
physically strong enough to handle the size,
weight and power of the machine.
– Hold the machine correctly. Prepare to counter-
act normal or sudden movements - hold the ma-
chine with both hands.
– Avoid abnormal posture. Ensure secure stance
and keep your balance at all times.
– Enable the command device for starting and
shutting down in case of an interruption to the
energy supply.
– The machine can only be operated with abrasives
which were developed for this purpose.
– Use only lubricants recommended by the manu-
facturer.
– Check sanding pad before each use. Do not use
the sanding pad if it is torn, broken or has fallen.
– Avoid direct contact with the sanding pad. Wear
suitable gloves as protection.
– Never use without an abrasive.
– Risk of an electrostatic discharge if the com-
pressed air tool is used on plastic and other non-
conductible materials.
– Potentially explosive atmosphere: If explosive or
self-igniting dust is produced during sanding of
certain materials, the processing instructions of
the material manufacturer must be observed un-
der all circumstances.
Risk through repeated movements
– The use of the compressed air tool may cause
unpleasant sensations in the hands and arms of
the operator, as well as in the neck and shoulder
area or other body parts.
– Adopt a comfortable posture. Change posture if
working continuously.
– If symptoms such as malaise, complaints, throb-
bing, pain, tingling, numbness, burning or stiff-
ness occur inform your employer and consult a
doctor.
Risk as a result of accessory parts
– Disconnect the compressed air hose from the
compressed air supply. In the event of non-use of
the compressed air tool, before maintenance and
when changing insertion tools.
– Avoid contact with the insertion tool during and
after use.
– Always use original accessories.
– Grinding wheels and cutting-off wheels are not
permitted.
– The permissible rotational speed of the accesso-
ry must be at least 1,000 rpm higher than the
maximum speed specified on the machine. Ac-
