Safety and operating instructions

Connecting a water separator

The length of the air hose between the compressor
and the water separator must be such that the water
vapor is cooled and condenses in the hose before
reaching the water separator.
If the ambient temperature is below 0 °C (32 °F) the
hose must be short enough to prevent the water from
freezing before reaching the water separator.

Lubrication

The lubricant is important for the machine's function
and has a great impact on the useful service life. If
there is no integrated lubricator, then connect a
separate lubricator to the air hose. To guarantee
good lubrication, the length of the air hose between
the separate lubricator and the pneumatic machine
should not exceed 3 meters.
Use a synthetic lubricant such as Atlas Copco
Breaker and hammer AIR-OIL or mineral oil with the
properties recommended in the table below.

Insertion tool

CAUTION Hot insertion tool
The tip of the insertion tool can become hot and
sharp when used. Touching it can lead to burns and
cuts.
► Never touch a hot or sharp insertion tool.
Wait until the insertion tool has cooled down before
►
carrying out maintenance work.
NOTICE Never cool a hot insertion tool in water, it
can result in brittleness and early failure.

Selecting the right insertion tool

Selecting the right insertion tool is a precondition for
proper machine function. It is important to select
insertion tools of high quality to avoid unnecessary
machine damage.
The machine can be destroyed if you use an incorrect
insertion tool.
Recommended insertion tools are listed in the
machine's spare parts list.

Using inserted tools that do not fulfil the criterias
mentioned below, will result in a longer time to
complete a task, and may result in higher levels of
vibration exposure. A worn tool will also cause
increased working time.

The narrow chisel is used for
demolition and cutting work in
concrete and other types of
hard materials.
The moil point is only used for
making holes in concrete and
other types of hard materials.
The wide bladed chisel is used
in soft materials, such as
asphalt and frozen ground.
WARNING Vibration hazard
Make sure that the inserted tool is well-maintained,
not worn out and of the proper size.
Always use a sharp tool in order to work efficiently.
To prevent an accidental start: switch off the air
supply and disconnect the machine from the power
source. Bleed the machine by pressing the start
and stop device.
Before inserting a tool, lubricate the tool shank
with grease.
Close the tool retainer and check the lock function
by tugging the inserted tool sharply outwards.
