WARNING – Compressed air can cause severe injury. Before working on the
tools (e.g. installation, changing accessories or machine tools, prior to a long
standstill, maintenance, etc.) depressurize pneumatic equipment.
CAUTION – Risk of injury by whipping pneumatic hose.
Check pneumatic hoses, connection components and fittings regularly for any
damages and proper fixture.
When connecting / disconnecting the machine to / from the pneumatic supply,
please pay attention not to actuate the valve while doing so. Never remove a
pressurized pneumatic hose. Always switch the power supply off first and then
depressurize the machine. The maximum operating pressure (flow pressure)
according to the technical specification must not be exceeded.
A pressure regulator should be installed, which regulates the pressure before it
reaches the machine. Never direct a pneumatic hose at yourself or anyone else.
Never clean your clothes with compressed air. Direct cold air away from your
hands. Do not pull or carry the machine by the pneumatic hose. When using
claw couplings make sure that they are fitted with a suitable lock mechanism (e.
g. lock pin) and a safety chain.
Before starting work make sure that the hands are protected against: impacts, crushing,
hits, cuts, abrasions and heat. The operating and maintenance personnel must be physically
able to handle the bulk, the weight, the power and/or the torque of the machine. Do not use
the machine if you have taken any medication or drugs, after drinking alcohol or with any other
constraints on your vision, reaction time or judgment. Work in the best possible position so
that you can react with both hands to any normal or unexpected movements of the machine.
Maintain a balanced body position and secure footing in order to avoid improper strain and to be
able to support the reaction torque of the machine.
Additionally, observe the following:
• Operate the machine only after having carefully read the operation manual.
• If the machine shows any signs of abnormal operation and performance, work must be
stopped instantly and the machine has to be serviced or repaired.
• Do not employ the sabre saw by excessive force.
• Before using the machine, all parts or protective devices should be carefully checked to
make sure they are working correctly and fulfil the designated function.
• Damaged or malfunctioning protective devices and valves to be replaced and repaired by
qualified personnel.
