SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREVENTION OF HAZARDS
WARNING – Compressed air can cause severe injury. Before working on the
tools (e.g. installation, changing accessories or machine tools, prior to a long
standstill, maintenance, etc.) depressurize pneumatic equipment (close valve and
depressurize pneumatic hose).
CAUTION – Risk of injury by whipping pneumatic hose.
Check pneumatic hoses, connection components and fittings regularly for any
damages and proper fixture.
When connecting / disconnecting the machine to / from the pneumatic supply, please pay careful
attention not to actuate the start lever while doing so. Never remove a pressurized pneumatic hose.
Always switch the power supply off first and then depressurize the machine by pressing the valve latch.
The maximum operating pressure (flow pressure) according to the technical specification must
not be exceeded. A pressure regulator has to be installed, which regulates the pressure before it
reaches the machine. Never direct a pneumatic hose at yourself or anyone else. Never clean your
clothes with compressed air. Direct cold air away from your hands. Do not pull or carry the machine
by the pneumatic hose. When using claw couplings make sure that they are fitted with a suitable lock
mechanism (e. g. lock pin) and a safety chain.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREVENTION OF OPERATING HAZARDS
Before starting work make sure that the hands are protected against:
impacts, crushing, hits, cuts, abrasions and heat. The operating and maintenance personnel must
be physically able to handle the bulk, the weight, the power and/or the torque of the machine.
Do not use the machine if you have taken any medication or drugs, after drinking alcohol or with any
other constraints on your vision, reaction or judgment.
Work in the best possible position so that you can react with both hands to any normal or
unexpected movements of the machine. Maintain a balanced body position and secure footing in order
to avoid improper strain and to be able to support the reaction torque of the machine.
Additionally, consider the following:
• Operate the machine only after having carefully read the operation manual.
• Use impact wrenches only in combination with appropriate power sockets.
• Never use power sockets with worn out square drive. Prior to each application, check that the
square drive at the power socket and the square drive of the impact wrench is not worn out, or if there
are any fissures (cracks). Ensure that the power socket is properly seated on the square drive before
each startup.
• Before each startup, ensure that the reverse valve for rotation direction left and right is in the
correct position. Do not start the machine, unless the power socket is seated solidly and correctly on
the screw head or on the nut.
• Do not hold or guide the machine at the turning power socket.
• Consider enough space behind you when loosening screw connections, so that the operating
hand cannot be jammed.
• Use only extensions, adapters and joints, which are explicitly approved for the application with
impact wrenches.
• If the machine shows any signs of abnormal operation or performance, work must be stopped
instantly for maintenance and repair.
