The pneumatic tool may only be connected to lines,
for which the maximal permissible pressure of the
pneumatic tool cannot be exceeded by more than
10 %; for higher pressures, a pressure control valve
(pressure reducer) with preceding pressure-limita-
tion valve in the compressed-air line must be in-
stalled. Excessive pressure leads to abnormal opera-
tion or breakage of the pneumatic tool, which can lead
to injury.
