• Unrestrained compressed air hoses as
well as the resultant fragments or dust
being blown around can cause injuries.
Pull all hose clamps tight before com-
mencing work and replace damaged sup-
ply lines.
• Blow through or clean connections before
using for the first time. Soiling can impair
the function and and safety of the product.
• Disconnect the product from the com-
pressed air supply during breaks in work,
prolonged periods of non-use or taking
out of operation.
• The product may only be connected to
lines that have a protection mechanism to
prevent the maximum permissible pres-
sure from being exceeded by more than
10%. This can be achieved, for example,
by a pressure regulating valve with a
downstream or built-in pressure limiting
valve being fitted into the compressed air
line.
• Only operate the product at the pressure
required for the operation concerned, in
order to prevent unnecessarily high noise
levels, excessive wear and the resultant
malfunctions.
• Compressed air can be dangerous if the
operator is unsure how it should be han-
dled. Assembly, commissioning and
maintenance is reserved for trained and
experienced persons.

or at others in order to clean clothing and
footwear.
• Never blast objects that contain hazard-
ous substances (e.g. asbestos).
• Never use solvent-based liquids, acetone,
undiluted acids or solvents as cleaning
agents! A spray mist from these sub-
stances is highly hazardous to health and
possibly explosive.
• Live components in the work area must be
protected from dirt and dust particles
being blown around.
• Only use compressed air. Never use air
containing chemicals, synthetic oils
(organic solvents), salts or corrosive gas,
as it can cause damage and malfunctions.
• Use only lubricants recommended by the
manufacturer.
• Compressed air products are not earthed.
Proceed with caution when coming into
contact with power sources.
• Always attach protective caps when
transporting or storing products and
accessories.
