Specific Safety

Additional Safety Instructions for Pneumatic Power
Tools
Air under pressure can cause severe injury:
• Always shut off air supply, drain hose of air pressure and disconnect tool from air supply when
not in use, before changing accessories or when making repairs
• Never direct air at yourself or anyone else
• Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always check for damaged or loose hoses and fittings
• Whenever universal twist couplings (claw couplings) are used, lock pins should be installed and
whipcheck safety cables should be used to safeguard against possible hose-to-tool or hose-to-
hose connection failure
• Do not exceed the maximum air pressure stated on the tool
• Never carry an air tool by the hose

Before Use

Fitting the quick connector
EQ-4
EN-6
Note: This tool is supplied with two different male airline quick connectors:
• EQ-4 – commonly used in Europe
• EN-6 – mainly used in the UK
• Please choose the connector that is compatible with the airline system you are using, and install
as outlined below:
1. Apply some PTFE tape (not included) to the screw threads of the Quick Connector (5 or 6). This
will help to maintain an air tight seal
Note: Apply PTFE tape tightly and in a clockwise direction, so it does not come off when the thread
is screwed into the tool.
2. Remove the protective plug from the air inlet
3. Using a spanner (not included) screw the quick connector into the air inlet located at the base of
the handle
4. Connect to airline, pressurise carefully, then carry out a leak check (e.g. by spraying small
amounts of soapy water on to the outside of the connectors)
• Air lines fitted with matching female quick connectors will now be a push fit to the tool

Air supply connection
• This tool should be connected to a clean, dry air supply with inline oiler and water separator
• Do not allow supply pressure to exceed the maximum stated (see 'Specifications')
• Ensure that water is drained from air system daily
• Ensure that all parts of the system (hoses, couplers, etc.) are correctly rated for the air pressure
to be used
Setting tool power
• The tool speed/power can be adjusted by reducing/increasing the air supply pressure within the
range specified in 'Specifications'
• Whilst working with the tool, speed adjustments can be made via the Speed Control Trigger (3)
Setting the angle of the blade assembly
• The Blade Assembly (1) can be rotated to the desired angle for better control of the shears
• Using the supplied Hex Key (7), Slacken the Blade Retaining Hex Bolts (2) slightly, which will
enable the Blade Assembly to be rotated, and retighten the bolts with the Blade Assembly at
the required angle
