4. Proper use
The compressor is designed to generate com-
pressed air for compressed-air driven tools which
can be driven with an air volume of up to approx.
192 l/min (e.g. tire inflator, blow-out pistol and paint
spray gun).
Due to the restricted air flow rate, it is only possible
to operate tools with a very high compressed air con-
sumption (e.g. orbital sanders, straight grinders and
impact screwdriver) in some circumstances.
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 manufac-
turer 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 industri-
al applications. Our warranty will be voided if the
equipment is used in commercial, trade or industrial
businesses or for equivalent purposes.
5. Safety instructions
m Attention! The following basic safety measures
must be observed when using electric tools for pro-
tection against electric shock, and the risk of inju-
ry and fire. Read all these notices before using the
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
– Unused electric tools should be stored in a dry,
elevated or closed location out of the reach of
children.
6. Do not overload your electric tool
– They work better and more safely in the speci-
fied output range.

7. Wear suitable clothing
– Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery, which
can become entangled in moving parts.
– Rubber gloves and non-slip shoes are recom-
mended when working outdoors.
– Tie long hair back in a hair net.
8. Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is
not intended
– Do not use the cable to pull the plug out of the
outlet. Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp
edges.
9. Take care of your tools
– Keep your compressor clean in order to work
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
– During non-use of the electric tool or prior to
maintenance and when replacing tools such as
saw blades, bits, milling heads.
11. Avoid inadvertent starting
– Make sure that the switch is switched off when
plugging the plug into an outlet.
12. Use extension cables for outdoors
– Only use approved and appropriately identified
extension cables for use outdoors.
– Only use cable reels in the unrolled state.
13. Remain attentive
– Pay attention to what you are doing. Remain
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 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.
– 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.
– Damaged switches must be replaced at a cus-
tomer service workshop.
– Do not use any faulty or damaged connection
cables.
– Do not use any electric tool on which the switch
cannot be switched on and off.
