Intended Use; Safety Information - Scheppach HC25o Original Bedienungsanleitung

4. Intended use

The compressor is designed to generate compressed
air for compressed-air driven tools which can be driv-
en with an air volume of up to approx. 100 l/min (e.g.
tire infl ator, blow-out pistol and paint spray gun). Due
to the limited air output it is not possible to use the
compressor to drive tools with very high air consump-
tion (for example orbital sanders, rod grinders and
hammer screwdrivers).
The compressor may only be operated in a dry and
well ventilated indoor space.
The equipment is to be used only for its prescribed
purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of
misuse. The user / operator and not the manufacturer
will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind
caused as a result of this.
Please note that our equipment has not been de-
signed for use in commercial, trade or industrial appli-
cations. Our warranty will be voided if the equipment
is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses
or for equivalent purposes.

14. Check the electric tool for potential damage
- Protective devices and other parts must be care-
fully inspected to ensure that they are fault-free
and function as intended prior to continued use
of the electric tool.
- Check whether the moving parts function fault-
lessly and do not jam or whether parts are dam-
aged. All parts must be correctly mounted and
all conditions must be fulfilled to ensure fault-free
operation of the electric tool.
