▪ Ensure that the ON/OFF switch is not pressed while
connecting the appliance to the compressed air supply. If the
ON/OFF switch is damaged or does not allow the operation
of the pneumatic tool to be controlled, it must be repaired
or replaced in order to prevent any unintentional start;
Make all adjustments and work necessary for the correct
assembly of the pneumatic drill. If you have any questions or
difficulties, contact your official distributor.
While operating
Keep third parties away from the pneumatic tool's area
of operation. Never work while animals or people,
especially children, are in the danger zone.
Keep the work area clean, organized and well lit (250 to 300 lux
light), thus decreasing the risk of accidents.
Always wear personal protective equipment and clothing.
Wearing a visor or goggles, dust mask, hearing protection, anti-
slip safety shoes, long-sleeved clothing, gloves and helmet
properly reduces the risk of injury.
Clothing worn during the appliance operation must be
adequate, tight and closed, for example, a work boiler suit. Do
not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep hair, clothing and
gloves away from rotating parts.
The following precautions and procedures should also be
followed to avoid accidents:
▪ Always use clean, dry compressed air with a pressure equal
to or lower than the pressure indicated on the technical data
table;
▪ Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide or combustible gases as a
source of energy to start the device;
▪
The rotating attachments' speed of the pneumatic drill
must be at least equal to the maximum speed stated in the
technical specifications;
▪ When operating the pneumatic drill, adopt a stable position
and always keep your balance. Hold the appliance firmly to
ensure continuous operation and withstand unexpected
situations, such as kickback;
▪ The kickback is a sudden reaction that happens when the
pneumatic tool is switched on and the rotating accessory
gets jammed. The rotating accessory kickback forces the
pneumatic tool to rotate in the opposite direction to the
rotation of the accessory;
▪ The kickback occurs due to an incorrect use of the pneumatic
tool or due to an improper working procedure which can
cause serious injuries to the user. Loss of control can result
in serious injury. To avoid the kickback, the following
precautions must be considered:
- Place/keep the drill or bit in a correct and stable position;
- Do not position your body in the area where pneumatic tool
will move if kickback occurs;
When the bit or drill gets jammed, switch off the appliance
immediately.
▪ To avoid displacements or projections use fixing devices or
a bench vice to ensure a safe performance;
▪ Never put your hands near the rotating attachment. Keep
your hands away from the rotating parts;
▪
Make sure that the ventilation slots are not clogged. Do not
insert any objects over the ventilation slots;
▪ Drills and the pneumatic drill itself may become too hot
during operation. Avoid touching them, they can cause
severe burns;
▪ Make sure that you don't damage the electrical circuits, gas
and water pipes when operating the equipment. Any
damage to these installations can cause fire, explosion,
electric shock or property damage;
▪ Avoid using the pneumatic drill on surfaces coated with
paints containing lead or other materials harmful to health.
Any contact or inhalation of dust may cause allergic reactions
and / or breathing disorders.
▪ Materials containing asbestos cannot be worked. Asbestos is
carcinogenic.
