TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
tool for the application. The correct tool will do
the job better and more safely at the rate that it
was designed to work at.
Do not use tools if switch does not turn it on or
off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source be-
fore making any adjustments, changing acces-
sories or storing the tool. This preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of accidental starting
of the tool.
When the power tool is not in use, store it out
of the reach of children, and do not allow in-
dividuals who are not familiar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate it. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands on untrained
users.
Maintain the power tool. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, broken parts,
and any other condition that may affect the
operation of the power tool. If it is damaged,
have it repaired before using. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Check for misalignment or bonding of moving
parts, breakage parts, and any other condition
that may affect the tools operation. If you find
a damaged tool, take it to service before use it.
Use only accessories that are recommended by
the manufacturer of your model. Suitable ac-
cessories for one tool, may become hazardous
when are used on another tool.
Keep cutting tools, sharpened and clean. Cut-
ting tools in good condition with sharpened
edges, are less likely to stuck in workpieces or
easier to control.
Is recommendable to use a safety device suit-
able, such a thermal and differential switch
when you are using an electric equipment.
SERVICE
Tool service must be performed only by quali-
fied repair personnel. Service or maintenance
performed by unqualified personnel could re-
sult in a risk of injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR
AIR COMPRESSORS
IMPORTANT:
This machine is intended to
generate compressed air required for the opera-
tion of air tools. Any use for medical purposes,
food processing as well as filling of oxygen cyl-
inders for breathing equipment is not permitted.
Explosive, combustible gases or gases detrimen-
tal to health may not be compressed. Opera-
tion in hazardous locations is not permitted. Any
other use is not a as specified, alteration of the
machine or use of parts that are not approved by
the equipment manufacturer, can cause unfore-
seeable damage!
• Children, juveniles and persons not having
been instructed in its usage are not permitted to
operate this machine and any air tools connected
to it.
WARNING: Before connecting a tool to a
power source (receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure
that the voltage supply is the same as that speci-
fied on the nameplate of the tool.
A power source with a higher voltage than that
specified for the tool can result in serious injury
to the user, as well as damage to the tool.
Using a power source with a voltage less than the
nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
Always unplug before making any adjustments
or maintenance, including renewing the lubricat-
ing oil.
• To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, never
spray flammable liquids in a confined area.
It is normal for the compressor motor and pres-
sure switch to produce sparks during use. If sparks
come into contact with petrol vapors or solvents,
they may ignite and the vapors can cause a fire
or explosion.
• Always operate the compressor in a well venti-
lated area. Do not smoke while spraying.
Do not spray where sparks or flames are present.
Keep the compressor as far away from the spray
area as possible.
• Do not use welding equipment in close proxim-
ity to the compressor. Do not weld anything to
the air tank of the compressor: this could dan-
gerously weaken the tank and will void the war-
ranty.
• Do not use the compressor outdoors when it’s
raining or on a wet surface; either situation could
cause an electric shock.
• Always shut off the compressor after use and
before servicing. Push the on/off knob down,
wait for the pressurised air to bleed from the
tank from the release valve and then remove the
electrical plug from the power supply.
• Check the maximum pressure rating of any
tools or accessories that you intend to use with
the compressor. The output pressure of the air
from the compressor must be regulated so that
it never exceeds the rated pressure of the tool
or accessory.
• To avoid the risk of burns and injury from mov-
