Safety instructions for compressed air tools
HAZARDS FROM DUST AND
VAPOURS
The dusts and vapours
„
generated by pneumatic
sheet metal nibbler may be
detrimental to health
(e.g. cancer, birth defects,
asthma, dermatitis). These risks
must be assessed without fail
and the corresponding regulat-
ing mechanisms implemented.
This risk assessment should
„
extend to the dusts generated
by the machine in use and to
the potential raising of dust
deposits.
The air nibbler must be
„
operated and serviced
as recommended in these
instructions if the release of
dust and vapours is to be
minimised.
The exhaust air must be
„
extracted in such a manner
that the dust raised in dusty
environments is reduced to a
minimum.
If dusts and vapours are
„
generated, the main task is
to check these at the place of
their release.
All machine fitted installations
„
or accessories designed to
capture, extract, or suppress
airborne dust or vapours
should be used and serviced
12 GB
in accordance with the manu-
facturer's instructions.
Do not breathe in the device's
„
exhaust air. Avoid exposing
your eyes to the device's
exhaust air.
The exhaust air from the
„
pneumatic device can contain
water, oil, particles of metal
or dirt from the compressor.
This can be harmful to health.
The consumables / machine
„
tools must be selected, ser-
viced, and replaced in compli-
ance with the recommendations
in these instructions if there is to
be no unnecessary increase to
dust and vapour levels.
Use respirator equipment as
„
set down in your employer's
instructions or in the work and
health protection rules.
Be careful not to inhale the oil
„
mist (lubricant) emitted by the
unit.
HAZARDS FROM NOISE
The effects of high noise levels
„
may cause permanent damage
to hearing when there is
inadequate protection.
This may lead to loss of hear-
ing and other problems,
e.g. tinnitus (ringing, buzz-
ing, whistling, or humming
in the ears). These risks must
