IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE EMPLOYER TO PLACE THE INFORMATION IN THIS MANUAL INTO THE HANDS OF THE OPERATOR.
GETTING STARTED WITH THE MACHINE
• THE DRILLS ARE ONLY INTENDED FOR DRILLING METAL OR ALLOYS, WOOD,
CERAMICS AND PLASTICS. FACOM WILL NOT BE LIABLE IF THE MACHINE IS USED FOR
ANY OTHER PURPOSE.
THIS MACHINE HAS NOT BEEN DESIGNED TO BE USED IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE.
This machine and its accessories must be used in compliance with these instructions.
Using it for any other purpose may cause a risk of danger for people and the
environment.
• Always operate, inspect and maintain this machine in accordance with all
regulations (local, state, federal and country), that may apply to hand held/
hand operated pneumatic machine.
• For safety, top performance, and maximum durability of parts, operate this
machine at 90 psig (6.2 bar/620 kPa) maximum air pressure at the inlet with
3/8" (10 mm) inside diameter air supply hose.
• Exceeding the maximum pressure of 6.2 bar will lead to the risk of danger such as
excessive speed, breaking parts, higher torque or force that may destroy the machine
and its accessories or the part being worked on.
• Be sure all hoses and fittings are the correct size and are tightly secured.
USING THE MACHINE
• Before using the machine, check that there is no dangerous interaction with the
immediate environment (explosive gas, inflammable or dangerous liquid, unknown
piping, electric sheathing or cable, etc).
• Before connecting the machine to the air inlet, check the trigger is not blocked
in the on position by an obstacle and no adjustment or assembly tool is still in
position.
• Check the machine is connected to the network by a quick disconnect joint and
that an air braker valve is close by to shut the air down immediately in the event
of blockage, breakage or any other incident.
• Keep hands, loose clothing and long hair away from rotating end of
machine.
Do not use damaged, frayed or deteriorated air hoses and fittings.
Air powered machine can vibrate in use. Vibration, repetitive
motions or uncomfortable positions may be harmful to your hands
and arms. Stop using any machine if discomfort, tingling feeling
or pain occurs.
Seek medical advice before resuming use.
Do not carry the machine by the hose.
Keep body stance balanced and firm. Do not overreach
when operating this machine.
Do not use the machine under the influence of drugs, alcohol,
medication or if you are tired.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION ENCLOSED.
READ THIS MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING MACHINE.
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN INJURY.
WARNING
• Always use clean dry and lubricated air at 90 psig maximum air
pressure. Dust, corrosive fumes and/or excessive moisture can ruin the
motor of an air machine.
• Do not lubricate machine with flammable or volatile liquids such as
kerosene, diesel or petrol.
• Do not remove any labels. Replace any damaged label.
• The use of a hose whip is recommended.
A coupler connected directly to the air inlet increases tool bulk and
decreases tool maneuverability.
• The pneumatic machine must be fitted and connected to the compressed
air network via quick disconnects to facilitate shutdown in the event of
danger.
• When the life of the tool has expired, it is recommended that the
machine be disassembled, degreased and parts be separated by material
so that they can be recycled.
• Check the position of the inversion system before starting the machine.
• Anticipate and be alert for sudden changes in motion during start up
and operation of any power machine.
• Ensure that the unit on which the work is being carried out is immobilised.
• In the event of blockage, release the trigger and disconnect the machine
from the compressed air network.
• Use accessories recommended by FACOM.
• The use of other than genuine FACOM replacement parts may result in safety
hazards, decreased machine performance, and increased maintenance, and
cancel all warranties.
Repairs should be made only by authorized trained personnel. Consult your
nearest FACOM Authorized Servicenter.
WARNING
Use protective equipment such as glasses, gloves, safety shoes as
well as acoustic protection.
Remain vigilant, use common sense and pay attention when using
the machine.
Always turn off the air supply and disconnect the air
supply hose before installing, removing or adjusting
any accessory on this machine, or before performing any
maintenance on this machine.
When working with certain materials, exposure to dust may be
dangerous for health.
Get information on the composition of the material you are
working on and use suitable protective equipment. If in doubt, use
as much protection as possible.
