Do not slide the machine over the ground.
·
If heat generation exceeds the specified surface temperature, the machine has to be
·
stopped instantly. It only may be re-started after having eliminated the cause for the fault.
The work area and the next working areas should always be protected from sparks.
·
Flammable and explosible material has to be removed from the work area before work is
·
started. Among others, this relates to dust deposits, cardboard, packing material, textile, wood
and wooden splints, but also flammable fluids and gas.
Ensure adequate lighting.
Be extra careful in unfamiliar surroundings. There is a risk of hidden hazards such as electric
lines or other supply lines. Make sure when operating the machine that no electrical cables,
gas pipes or similar could be damaged. Use suitable and personal protective equipment.
WARNING – Compressed air can cause severe injury. Before working on the tools (e.g.
installation, changing accessories or machine tools, prior to a long standstill, maintenance,
etc.) depressurize pneumatic equipment (close valve and depressurize pneumatic hose).
CAUTION – Risk of injury by whipping pneumatic hose.
Check pneumatic hoses, connection components and fittings regularly for any damages and
proper fixture.
When connecting / disconnecting the machine to / from the pneumatic supply, please pay careful attention
not to actuate the start lever while doing so. Never remove a pressurized pneumatic hose. Always switch
the power supply off first and then depressurize the machine by pressing the valve latch.
The maximum operating pressure (flow pressure) according to the technical specification must not
be exceeded. A pressure regulator has to be installed, which regulates the pressure before it reaches
the machine. Never direct a pneumatic hose at yourself or anyone else. Never clean your clothes with
compressed air. Direct cold air away from your hands. Do not pull or carry the machine by the pneumatic
hose. When using claw couplings make sure that they are fitted with a suitable lock mechanism (e. g. lock
pin) and a safety chain.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREVENTION OF OPERATING HAZARDS
Before starting work make sure that the hands are protected against: impacts, crushing, hits, cuts,
abrasions and heat. The operating and maintenance personnel must be physically able to handle the
bulk, the weight, the power and/or the torque of the machine. Do not use the machine if you have taken
any medication or drugs, after drinking alcohol or with any other constraints on your vision, reaction time
or judgment. Work in the best possible position so that you can react with both hands to any normal or
unexpected movements of the machine. Maintain a balanced body position and secure footing in order
to avoid improper strain and to be able to support the reaction torque of the machine. If you cannot safely
support the reaction torque of the machine, use a torque reaction bar (e.g. linear stand, telescopic arm,
holding fixture/ holder-on, support grip).
Additionally consider the following:
• Operate the machine only after having carefully read the operation manual.
• Use drill bits appropriate for the application with this machine.
• The work place has to be secured according to the instructions, in order to avoid injury to persons
nearby due to projectiles coming-off.
• The machine is for hand-held operation only.
