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. 270 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 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.

electric tool and keep the safety instructions for later
reference.
Safe work
1. Keep the work area orderly
- Disorder in the work area can lead to accidents.
2. Take environmental influences into account
- Do not expose electric tools to rain.
- Do not use electric tools in a damp or wet envi-
ronment. There is a risk of electric shock!
- Make sure that the work area is well-illuminated.
- Do not use electric tools where there is a risk of
fire or explosion.
3. Protect yourself from electric shock
- Avoid physical contact with earthed parts (e.g.
pipes, radiators, electric ranges, cooling units).
4. Keep children away
- Do not allow other persons to touch the equip-
ment or cable, keep them away from your work
area.
5. Securely store unused electric tools

well and safely.
- Follow the maintenance instructions.
- Check the connection cable of the electric tool
regularly and have it replaced by a recognised
specialist when damaged.
- Check extension cables regularly and replace
them when damaged.
10. Pull the plug out of the outlet

maintenance and when replacing tools.
11. Avoid inadvertent starting
- Make sure that the switch is switched off when
plugging the plug into an outlet.
- Use extension cables for outdoors
12. Only use approved and appropriately identified
extension cables for use outdoors.
- Only use cable reels in the unrolled state.
13. Remain attentive

sensible when working. Do not use the electric
tool when you are distracted.
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
faultlessly and do not jam or whether parts are
damaged. All parts must be correctly mounted
and all conditions must be fulfilled to ensure
fault-free operation of the electric tool.
- Damaged protective devices and parts must be
properly repaired or replaced by a recognised
workshop, insofar as nothing different is speci-
fied in the operating manual.
