Prior to working with the tool, you should
read all the instruction and keep it around.
ATTENTION!
Read all the instructions be-
low. Failure to comply with them can lead to
electrical shock, fi re or personal injury. The
concept of “pneumatic tool”, which is used in
the instructions, refers to all tools, which are
driven by a stream of air compressed at the
right pressure.
COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING IN-
STRUCTIONS
General safety conditions
Before starting the installation, work, repair,
maintenance and changing of accessories,
or when you are working near pneumatic
tool, because of many risks, you should read
and understand the safety instructions. if the
above mentioned steps are not taken, it may
result in serious injury. Installation adjust-
ment and installation of pneumatic tools may
be performed only by qualifi ed and trained
staff . Do not modify the pneumatic tool. Mod-
ifi cations can reduce the effi ciency and level
of security, and increase the risk for a tool op-
erator. Do not discard the safety instructions,
you must pass them to the tool operator. Do
not use pneumatic tool, when it is damaged.
The tool should be subject to periodic inspec-
tions for visibility of the data required by ISO
11148. The employer/user should contact
the manufacturer for replacement of a rating
plate whenever it is necessary.
Hazards associated with moving parts
Disconnect tool from the power supply before
changing the inserted tool or accessory. Dam-
age to the workpiece, accessories or even the
inserted tool can cause the ejection of parts
at high speed. Always use the eye protection
which is impact-resistant. Degree of protec-
tion should be selected depending on the
work to be done. You should make sure, that
the work piece is securely clamped. When
you are working over your head, use protec-
tive helmet. You should also take into account
the risk to bystanders. You should make sure,
that the work piece is securely clamped. Make
sure, that the blades are directed in such a
way, that they cannot cause a hazard.
The risks associated with the work
Use of the tool may expose the operator’s
hands for threats, such as crushing, impact,
cut-off , abrasion and heat. Avoid contact with
the tool blade every time when the tool is con-
nected to the power supply. Cutting by the
shear creates sharp edges. You should dress
appropriate gloves to protect your hands. The
operator and maintenance personnel should
be physically able to cope with the quantity,
the weight and power of the tool. Grip the tool
properly. Be ready to resist normal or rapid
movements and have both hands available.
Keep balance and to ensure safe foot posi-
tioning. Release the device for starting and
stopping in the case of interruption in the
power supply. Use only the lubricants, which
are recommended by the manufacturer. Avoid
direct contact with the inserted tool during or
immediately after work, may be hot. The used
tools should always be sharp. Avoid awkward
postures, and also postures, which will not
allow you to prevent the normal or sudden
movement of the tool. Unexpected movement
of the tool or rupture of the blades may cause
injury. Cutting of some metals can cause
sparks or high temperature, which can cause
a fi re or explosion. Before you start cutting
the walls of the container in which fl ammable
liquid has been previously stored, you should
empty the tank completely, and then ventilate
the vapours. There is a risk of electrostatic
discharges when you are cutting plastic or
other non-conductive materials.
The risks associated with repetitive movements
During the application of the pneumatic tool
for work consisting of the repetition of move-
ments, the operator is exposed to experience
discomfort in hands, arms, shoulders, neck
or other parts of the body. In the case of use
of pneumatic tool, the operator should take a
comfortable posture for correct setting of feet
and should avoid postures, that are strange
or not providing the balance. The operator
should change posture during the long work
periods, this will help to avoid discomfort and
fatigue. If the operator is experiencing symp-
toms such as persistent or recurring discom-
fort, pain, pulsed pain, tingling, numbness,
burning or stiff ness. Operator should not ig-
nore them, should tell the employer about it
and consult a doctor.
The risks associated with accessories
Disconnect tool from the power supply before
changing the inserted tool or accessory. Use
accessories and supplies only in sizes and
types, which are recommended by the man-
ufacturer. The blade may become hot during
its use, do not touch it. Do not use cracked or
distorted accessories or inserted tools.
