Hazards Caused By Vibrations; Additional Safety Instructions For Pneumatic Machines - Parkside PDRS 27 A1 Originalbetriebsanleitung

■ The compressed air tool is to be operated and
maintained in accordance with the recommen­
dations contained in these instructions in order
to reduce any unnecessary increase of the noise
levels .
■ The integrated sound absorber may not be
removed and must be in good working order .

Hazards caused by vibrations

■ Vibrations can damage the nerves and cause
malfunctions to the blood circulation in the
hands and arms .
■ Keep your hands away from the fittings of the
nut wrenches .
■ Wear warm clothing when working in a cold
environment and keep your hands warm and
dry .
■ If you notice that the skin of your fingers or
hands is becoming numb, tingles, hurts or shows
white discolouration, stop working with the
machine and consult a doctor .
■ The automatic screwdriver must to be operated
and maintained in accordance with the recom­
mendations contained in this manual to reduce
any unnecessary increase of the vibrations .
■ Do not use any worn­out or poorly matching
fittings and extensions, as there is a high prob­
ability that this will lead to a significant increase
in the vibrations .
■ Consumables and the machine tool should be
selected, maintained and replaced in accord­
ance with the recommendations in this guide in
order to avoid unnecessary increase of oscilla­
tions .
■ If possible, sleeve fittings should be used .
■ To support the weight of the machine, use a
stand, clamp or a balancing unit wherever
possible .

■ Hold the machine securely but not too firmly
while maintaining the necessary hand­reaction
force, as the vibration risk generally increases
the harder the machine is held .
■ An inadequately mounted or damaged acces­
sory tool can lead to excessive vibrations .
Additional safety instructions for
pneumatic machines
■ Compressed air can cause serious injuries:
–
When the machine is not in use, the air
supply must always be shut off and the air
hose depressurised . The machine must be
disconnected from the compressed air sup­
ply before replacing accessories or when
conducting repair work .
–
Never aim the airflow at yourself or anyone
else .
■ Thrashing hoses can cause serious injury . There­
fore, always check whether the hoses and their
fixings are undamaged and have not come
loose .
■ Cold air must be directed away from the hands .
■ Do not use any quick­lock couplings on the tool
inlet for impact and impulse drills . For hose con­
nections with a thread, always only use those
made of tempered steel (or a material with
comparable impact resistance) .
■ If universal rotary joints (claw couplings) are
used, locking pins must be inserted and Whip­
check hose restraints must be used to provide
protection in the case of a failure of the connec­
tion between the hose and the machine .
■ Ensure that the maximum permissible pressure
on the machine is not exceeded .
