Additional Safety Instructions; Product-Specific Safety Instructions - Scheppach Hc24X Originalbetriebsanleitung

– Ensure that all hoses and fixtures are suitable for
the maximum permissible working pressure of the
compressor.
6. Set-up location
– Only set up the compressor on a flat surface.
7. In case of pressures above 7 bar, it is recommended
to equip supply hoses with a safety cable (e. g. a wire
rope).
8. Avoid over-stressing the piping system by using flexi-
ble 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 warnings 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 compres-
sor during operation.
• Compressor pump and lines reach high temperatures
during operation. Touching them will cause burns.
• The air which is sucked in by the compressor must be
kept free of impurities that could cause fires or explo-
sions in the compressor pump.
• When disconnecting the hose coupling, hold the cou-
pling piece of the hose firmly with your hand. This will
ensure that you avoid injuries caused by the hose re-
coiling.
• 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.
DANGER
Danger of injury!
Do not blow on people or clean clothing whilst on the
body with the air blow gun.
Safety instructions when using spraying
attachments (e.g. paint sprayers)
• Keep the spray attachment away from the compressor
when filling so that no liquid comes into contact with
the compressor.
• Never spray in the direction of the compressor when
using the spraying attachments (e.g. paint sprayers).
Moisture can lead to electrical hazards!
DANGER
Risk of explosion!
Do not process any paints or solvents with a flash point
below 55° C.
DANGER
Risk of explosion!
Do not heat up paints or solvents.
22 | GB
• If harmful liquids are processed, filter devices (face
masks) are required for protection. Also observe the
information on protective measures provided by the
manufacturers of such substances.
• The information and labelling of the hazardous sub-
stances ordinance affixed to the outer packaging of
the processed materials must be observed. If neces-
sary, take additional protective measures, in particular
wear suitable clothing and masks.
DANGER
Risk of explosion!
Do not smoke during the spraying process or in the
working area.
Paint vapours are also highly flammable.
• Never set up or operate the equipment in the vicinity
of a fire place, open lights or sparking products.
• Do not store or consume food or drinks in the work ar-
ea. Paint fumes are harmful to health.
• The working area must be larger than 30 m³ and suffi-
cient air exchange must be ensured during spraying
and drying.
• Do not spray into the wind. Always observe the regu-
lations of the local police authorities when spraying
flammable or hazardous spraying materials.
• Do not use media such as white spirit, butyl alcohol
and methylene chloride in conjunction with the PVC
pressure hose. These media destroy the pressure
hose.
• The work area must be separated from the compres-
sor so that it cannot come into direct contact with the
working medium.
Operation of pressure vessels
• Anyone who operates a pressure vessel must keep
this in good working order, operate and monitor it cor-
rectly, perform the necessary maintenance and servic-
ing works immediately and implement safety mea-
sures as required according to the circumstances.
• The regulatory authority can instruct necessary moni-
toring measures in individual cases.
• A pressure vessel must not be operated if it exhibits a
defect that poses a danger to personnel or third par-
ties.
• Check the pressure vessel for rust and damage each
time before use. The compressor shall not be operat-
ed if the pressure vessel is damaged or rusty. If you
discover damage, please contact the customer ser-
vice workshop.
Store all safety information and instructions safely.
