Before Use
Fitting the quick connector
Note: This tool is supplied with two different male airline quick connectors:
EQ-4 – commonly used in Europe
EN-6 – mainly used in the UK
EQ-4
Europe
• Please choose the connector that is compatible with the airline system you are using, and install
as outlined below:
1. Apply some PTFE tape (not included) to the screw threads of the Quick Connector (3). This will help
to maintain an air tight seal
Note: Apply PTFE tape tightly and in a clockwise direction, so it does not come off when the thread
is screwed into the tool.
2. Remove the protective plug from the air inlet
3. Using a spanner (not included) screw the quick connector into the air inlet located at the base of
the handle
4. Connect to airline, pressurise carefully and carry out a leak check (e.g. by spraying small amounts of
soapy water on to the outside of the connectors)
• Air lines fitted with matching female quick connectors will now be a push fit to the tool

Operation

WARNING: Ensure the material to be cut does not exceed the cutting capacity of this device.
Note: Always mark the line or shape to be cut on the material.
1. Grip the tool firmly, disengage the safety catch integrated into the Speed Control Trigger (2) and
depress the lever to begin cutting
2. Apply light pressure to move the blades through the material, as shown in Fig. I
Note: If the device stalls whilst cutting, release pressure on the speed control trigger to turn off
the tool. Pull back from the cutting edge. Depress the lever to restart the cutting process and slowly
engage the cut.
3. Release pressure on the Speed Control Trigger to finish cutting, and ensure the safety catch
re-engages to prevent accidental activation
Note: This device is designed for cutting straight lines and gradual curves, not 90° corners.
Note: DO NOT allow the shear to run in 'idle rotation' for an extended period of time. This will
shorten its life.
WARNING: Be aware that air tools may hold residual pressure after use. Always bleed air pressure
from the tool after shutting off air supply.
