4. Intended use
The compressor is designed to generate compressed
air for compressed-air driven tools which can be driven
with an air volume of up to approx. 115 l/min (e.g. tire
inflator, blow-out pistol and paint spray gun). Due to
the limited air output it is not possible to use the com-
pressor to drive tools with very high air consumption
(for example orbital sanders, rod grinders and ham-
mer screwdrivers).
The compressor may only be operated in a dry and
well ventilated indoor space.
The equipment is to be used only for its prescribed
purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of
misuse. The user / operator and not the manufactur-
er will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind
caused as a result of this.
Please note that our equipment has not been designed
for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications.
Our warranty will be voided if the equipment is used
in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for
equivalent purposes.
5. Safety information
Warning! Read all safety information and instruc-
tions! Failure to observe safety information and in-
structions can result in electric shock, fire and/or se-
rious injuries.
Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence.
The term "electric tool" used in the safety instructions
refers to mains-powered electrical tools (with a mains
cable) and battery-powered electrical tools (without
a mains cable).
1) Work area safety
a)
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
b)
Do not operate power tools in explosive at-
mospheres, such as in the presence of flam-
mable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
c)
Keep children and bystanders away while op-
erating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a)
Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching out-
lets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b)
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of elec-
tric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c)
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-
ditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
d)
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords in-
crease the risk of electric shock.
e)
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f)
If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a)
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or med-
ication. A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b)
Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
c)
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or energising power tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.
