The tool warranty period starts on the date of delivery to 

the buyer, as specified in the relevant document. The war-

ranty covers the user/buyer provided that the tool is pur-

• Do not carry the connected tool by pulling the hose. The 

hole must be far from any heating sources or from cutting 

parts. 

• Keep the tools in good conditions; do not remove either 

safety parts or silencers. 

• After repairing and/or adjusting, make sure you have al-

ready removed the adjusting spanners. 

•  Before  disconnecting  the  compressed  air  hose  from  the 

tool make sure that there is no pressure in the hose.
