Attention!
- For your own safety, only use accessories and
additional equipment that are indicated in the
operating manual or have been recommended or
indicated by the manufacturer.
- Use of other tools or accessories that those rec-
ommended in the operating manual or in the cat-
alogue could represent a personal danger to you.
5.
Inflating tyres
- Check the tyre pressure immediately after filling
using a suitable pressure gauge, e.g. at a petrol
station.
6.
Street-legal compressors in construction site op-
eration
- Ensure that all hoses and fixtures are suitable for
the maximum permissible working pressure of the
compressor.
7.
Set-up location
- Only set up the compressor on a flat surface.
8.
It is recommended to equip the feed hoses with a
safety cable in cases where the pressure is above
7 bar, e.g. using a wire cable.
9.
Avoid over-stressing the piping system by using
flexible hose connections to prevent kinking.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Observe the corresponding operating manuals of
the respective compressed air tools / compressed
air attachments! The following general instructions
must also be observed:
Safety instructions for working with compressed
air and air blow guns
• Ensure there is sufficient distance to the product, at
least 2.50 m, and keep the compressed air tools /
compressed air attachments away from the com-
pressor during operation.
• Compressor pump and lines reach high tempera-
tures during operation. Touching them will cause
burns.
• The air drawn in by the compressor must be kept
free of impurities that can cause fires or explosions
in the compressor pump.
• When disconnecting the hose coupling, hold the
coupling piece of the hose firmly with your hand.
This will ensure that you avoid injuries caused by
the hose recoiling.
• Wear safety goggles when working with the air blow
gun. Foreign objects or blown off parts can easily
cause injuries.
• Wear safety goggles and a respirator when working
with the compressed air pistol. Dusts are harmful to
health! Foreign objects or blown off parts can easily
cause injuries.
• Do not blow on people or clean clothing whilst on the
body with the air blow gun. Danger of injury!
Safety instructions when using spraying attach-
ments (e.g. paint sprayers):
1.
Keep the spray attachment away from the com-
pressor when filling so that no liquid comes into
contact with the compressor.
2.
Never spray in the direction of the compressor
when using the spraying attachments (e.g. paint
sprayers). Moisture can lead to electrical hazards!
3.
Do not process any paints or solvents with a flash
point below 55° C. Risk of explosion!
4.
Do not heat up paints or solvents. Risk of explo-
sion!
5.
If harmful liquids are processed, filter devices
(face masks) are required for protection. Also ob-
serve the information on protective measures pro-
vided by the manufacturers of such substances.
6.
The information and labelling of the hazardous
substances ordinance affixed to the outer packag-
ing of the processed materials must be observed.
If necessary, take additional protective measures,
in particular wear suitable clothing and masks.
7.
Do not smoke during the spraying process or in the
working area. Risk of explosion! Paint vapours are
also highly flammable.
8.
Fireplaces, naked flames lights or sparking ma-
chinery must not be present or operated.
9.
Do not store or consume food or drinks in the work
area. Paint fumes are harmful to health.
10. The working area must be larger than 30 m³ and
sufficient air exchange must be ensured during
spraying and drying.
11. Do not spray into the wind. Always observe the
regulations of the local police authorities when
spraying flammable or hazardous spraying mate-
rials.
12. Do not use media such as white spirit, butyl alco-
hol and methylene chloride in conjunction with the
PVC pressure hose.
13. These media destroy the pressure hose.
14. The work area must be separated from the com-
pressor so that it cannot come into direct contact
with the working medium.
