18. Replacing the power cable
To prevent injury, damaged power cables may
only be replaced by the manufacturer or a
qualified electrician.
1.2 Safety instructions for working with
copressed air and blasting guns
n Compressors and lines reach high temperatures
during operation. Avoid contact! Risk of burns!
n Gases or vapours drawn in by the compressor
have to be kept free of constituents that may
cause fire or explosions inside the compressor.
n When you disconnect the hose coupling, hold the
coupling element in your hand to prevent injury
from the whiplashing hose.
n Wear goggles when working with the blow-out
gun. Injuries may easily result from foreign
bodies and blasted parts.
n Never point the blow-out gun at other persons
and never use it to clean clothes that are still
being worn.
1.3.Safety information for paint spraying
n Never process paints or solvents with a flash
point below 55°C.
n Never heat paints or solvents.
n It is imperative to use filtering equipment (face
masks) when processing harmful liquids. Note
also the information concerning safety
precautions published by the manufacturers of
these liquids.
n Smoking is prohibited during the spraying
operation and in the work room. Paint vapours
are highly flammable.
n Make sure there are no open fires or open lights
in the work room. Sparking machines are not to
be used.
n Do not keep or consume food and drink in the
work room. Paint vapours are harmful.
n 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 undertaken if necessary,
particularly the wearing of suitable clothing and
masks.
n The work room has to be bigger than 30 m
3
and
have sufficient ventilation for spraying and
drying. Never spray into the wind.
It is always imperative to observe the regulations
of your local police authorities when spraying
combustible or hazardous substances.
n Never process media such as white petroleum
spirit, butyl alcohol and methylene chloride with
the PVC pressure hose (reduced life span).
1.4 Operating pressure vessels
n An operator of a pressure vessel is required to
keep the pressure vessel in good working order,
to operate it properly, to supervise its use,
to carry out essential maintenance and repair
work immediately, and to introduce essential
safety measures according to requirements.
n The supervisory authorities may order essential
safeguards from case to case.
n A pressure vessel may not be operated if it has
any defects which constitute a danger to
employees or third parties.
n The pressure vessel must be regularly inspected
for damage, e.g. rust. If you discover any
damage, then please contact the customer
service workshop.
Keep these safety instructions in a safe place.
