16 Important!
– For your own safety you must only use the ac-
cessories and additional units listed in the oper-
ating instructions or recommended or specified
by the manufacturer. The use of mounted tools
or accessories other than those recommended
in the operating instructions or catalog may
place your personal safety at risk.
17 Noise
– Wear ear muffs when you use the compressor.
18 Replacing the power cable
– To prevent hazards, leave the replacement of
damaged power cables strictly to the manufac-
turer or a qualified electrician. There is a risk
of electric shock!
19 Inflating tires
– ATTENTION! The manometer has not been of-
ficially calibrated! Directly after inflating tires,
check the pressure with a suitable pressure
gauge, for example at your filling station.
20 Roadworthy compressors for building site opera-
tions
– Make sure that all lines and fittings are suitable
for the maximum permissible operating pres-
sure of the compressor.
21 Place of installation
– Set up the compressor on an even surface.
22 Attention!
– This device can be used by children from 8
years of age as well as by persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities or with
a lack of experience or knowledge, if they are
supervised or if they have been trained in the
safe use of the device and understand the re-
sultant hazards.
– Children may not play with the device.
– Cleaning and maintenance may not be carried
out by children.
23 Supply hoses at pressures above 7 bar should be
equipped with a safety cable (e.g. a wire rope).
24 Avoid over-stressing the piping system by using
flexible hose connections to prevent kinking.
Warning! This electric tool generates an electro-
magnetic field during operation. This field can im-
pair active or passive medical implants under certain
conditions. In order to prevent the risk of serious
or deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with
medical implants consult with their physician and the
manufacturer of the medical implant prior to operating
the electric tool.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety instructions for working with compressed
air and blasting guns
• The compressor pump and lines can become very
hot during operation. Touching these parts will burn
you.
• The air which is sucked in by the compressor must
be kept free of impurities that could cause fires or
explosions in the compressor pump.
• When releasing the hose coupling, hold the hose
coupling piece with your hand. This way, you can
protect yourself against injury from the rebound-
ing hose.
• Wear safety goggles when working with the blow-
out pistol. Foreign bodies or blown off parts can
easily cause injuries.
• Do not blow at people with the blow-out pistol and
do not clean clothes while being worn. Risk of in-
jury!
Safety information for paint spraying
• Do not process any paints or solvents with a flash
point below 55° C. There is a risk of explosion!
• Do not heat up paints or solvents. There is a risk
of explosion!
• If hazardous liquids are processed, wear protec-
tive filter units (face guards). Also, adhere to the
safety information provided by the manufacturers
of such liquids.
• The details and designations of the Ordinance on
Hazardous Substances, which are displayed on the
outer packaging of the processed material, must
be observed.
• Additional protective measures are to be under-
taken if necessary, particularly the wearing of suit-
able clothing and masks.
• Do not smoke during the spraying process and/or
in the work area. There is a risk of explosion! Paint
vapors are easily combustible.
• Never set up or operate the equipment in the vicin-
ity of a fire place, open lights or sparking machines.
• Do not store or eat food and drink in the work area.
Paint vapors are harmful to your health.
• The work area must exceed 30 m3 and sufficient
ventilation must be ensured during spraying and
drying. Do not spray against the wind. Always ad-
here to the regulations of the local police authority
when spraying combustible or hazardous materi-
als.
• Do not process media such as white spirit, butyl
alcohol and methylene chloride with the PVC pres-
sure hose. These media will destroy the pressure
hose.
