Protective Equipment - Würth DCN 4590 Traducción Del Manual De Instrucciones De Servicio Original

Operate and maintain the tool according to
■
the recommendations in this manual to prevent
an unnecessary increase in the vibration level.
Hold the tool with a light but secure grip be-
■
cause the risk of vibrations is generally higher if
more force is used during gripping.
If an operator is exposed to tool vibrations
■
for a long time, there is a risk that they will be
subject to repeating loads.
Additional safety instructions for
Air tools:
Compressed air can cause severe injuries.
■
Always disconnect the compressed air from the
■
tool if you are not using it, changing accesso-
ries, carrying out adjustments or repairs, or are
transporting it.
Never direct compressed air towards yourself
■
or other persons.
Keep your fingers away from the trigger if you
■
are not actually using the tool.
Look out for damaged hoses because these
■
can cause severe injuries.
Never pull or carry the tool by the hose.
■
Always comply with the maximum operating
■
pressure of 8 bar and use the smallest possible
pressure to minimise noise and vibrations.
Never use oxygen or flammable gases to
■
operate the device.
Be aware of the temperature of the handle
■
and the air outlet because these can become
extremely cold due to escaping air.
