Safety and Operating instructions

When taking a break

► During all breaks you must put the machine
away in such a way that there is no risk for it to
be unintentionally started.
► In event of a longer break or when leaving the
workplace: Switch off the compressed air supply
and then bleed the machine by activating the
start and stop device.

Maintenance

General

Regular maintenance is a fundamental condition
for the machine to continue to be a safe and
efficient tool.

Daily maintenance

► Clean and inspect the machine every day.
► Check the tool retainer for wear and function.
► Conduct a general inspection for leaks and
damage.
► Check that the air inlet nipple is tightened and
that the claw coupling is free from damage.
► Check regularly that the oil plug is tightened.
► Check that the O-ring on the oil plug is
undamaged and that it closes tightly.
► Check the threads in the machine lubricator and
on the oil plug. Make sure they are not damaged
or worn out.
For the machine to maintain the specified
vibration values, this should always be
checked:
► Too big a clearance between the insertion tool's
shank and the chisel bushing will generate
increased vibrations. To avoid getting exposed
to excessive vibrations, check the chisel
bushing for wear every day. Use the gauge
that corresponds to the insertion tool's shank
dimension. If the gauge´s part (1) can be pushed
fully into the chisel bushing, the bushing is worn
out and must be replaced! See also "Checking
for wear" for checking the insertion tool's shank.

If it is possible to push the gauge to point A fully into
the chisel bushing (point B) then the chisel bushing or
fronthead should immediately be replaced.
► If the machine is equipped with vibration-
absorbing handles their function should be
checked.
► Check that the handles are moving freely (up
– down) and do not jam.
► Check that the springs are not damaged, see

"Vibration-absorbing handles main parts".

Periodic maintenance

After each operating period of approximately 150
impact hours or twice a year the machine must be
dismantled and all parts be cleaned and checked.
This work must be performed by authorized staff,
trained for this task.
