= 3 dB Sound power level: L

= 3 dB Wear ear protection! Vibration emission value: Vibration values determined in accordance with ISO 28927-3 and EN 12096:

WARNING! ► The noise emission levels specified in these instructions have been measured in accordance with the standardised measur- ing procedure specified in ISO 15744 and can be used to make equipment comparisons. The noise emission values vary in accordance with the use of the compressed air tool and may be higher than the values specified in these instructions in some cases. It is easy to underestimate the noise emission load if the compressed air tool is used regularly in a certain manner. NOTE ► For an accurate estimate of the noise emission load during a certain working period, the times during which the appliance is switched off or is running but not actually being used must also be taken into consideration. This can significantly reduce the noise emission load over the total working period.PDAP 75 A1 ■ 6 

WARNING! General safety instructions for compressed air tools WARNING! ► For multiple hazards: Please ensure that you have read and understood the safety instructions before adjusting, operating, repairing, maintaining or replacement of accessories on the polisher as well as before working in the vicinity of the ma- chine. Failure to do this can result in serious bodily injury. ■ The sander or the polisher should only be adjusted, set or used by adequately qualified and trained operators. ■ This sander or this polisher may not be modified. Modifications can reduce the effectiveness of the safety measures and increase the risks for the operator. ■ The safety instructions should not be lost – give them to the oper- ator. ■ Never use damaged sanders or polishers. ■ The appliance must be inspected regularly to ensure that it is labelled with the required rated values and markings given in this manual. The user must contact the manufacturer to obtain replacement labels if necessary.PDAP 75 A1

 7 ■ Hazards caused by flying parts ■ If a workpiece or accessory or even part of the machine tool itself breaks, parts can be flung out at high speeds. ■ When operating the sander or the polisher or when exchanging accessories on the appliance, always wear eye protection. The degree of necessary protection must be evaluated separately for each individual task. ■ Wear a safety helmet if working above head height. In this case, the risks for others should also be assessed. ■ You must ensure that the workpiece has been securely fixed. Hazards caused by entanglement ■ Suffocation, scalping and/or cut wounds can occur if loose cloth- ing, jewellery, necklaces, hair or gloves are not kept away from the machine and its accessories. Hazards during operation ■ When using the machine, the operator’s hands can be subject to hazards such as cuts, grazing and heat. Wear suitable gloves to protect your hands. ■ The operator and maintenance personnel must be physically capable of handling the size, mass and power of the machine. ■ Hold the machine correctly: be ready to counteract any normal or sudden movements - have both hands ready. ■ Ensure that your body is balanced and that you have a secure standing position. ■ Release the start/stop control in case of a disruption to the elec- tricity supply. ■ Use only the lubricants recommended by the manufacturer.PDAP 75 A1 ■ 8 

■ Suitable safety goggles must be worn; wearing protective gloves and safety clothing is recommended. ■ Check the grinding disc before every use. Do not use if this is cracked, broken or has been dropped. ■ Avoid direct contact with the movable grinding disc, to avoid squashing or cutting your hands or other parts of the body. Always wear suitable gloves to protect your hands. ■ Never use the machine without an abrasive attachment. ■ There is a risk of electrostatic discharge if the machine is used on plastic and other non-conductive materials. ■ Dust and vapours created by the grinding and sanding can cause a potentially explosive atmosphere. Always use a dust extraction or suppression system suitable for the material being worked. Risks due to repetitive movements ■ When using a sander or polisher to perform work-related activi- ties, operators may experience uncomfortable sensations in their hands and arms, as well as in the neck and shoulders or other parts of the body. ■ When using a sander or a polisher, the operator should adopt a comfortable posture whilst ensuring a secure hold and avoiding awkward postures or positions in which it is difficult to maintain balance. The operator should change positions during the course of long-lasting tasks. This can be helpful in the prevention of dis- comfort and fatigue. ■ If the operator notices symptoms such as persistent or recurring illness, discomfort, throbbing, pain, tingling, burning or stiffness, these indications should not be ignored. In this case, the operator should consult a suitably qualified physician.PDAP 75 A1

 9 ■ Hazards caused by accessories ■ Disconnect the sander or the polisher from the power before changing the tools or accessories. ■ Avoid direct contact with the machine tool during and after use, since this can have heated up or have become sharp. ■ Use only tools for sanders and polishers which have been ap- proved by the manufacturer of the sander and polisher. ■ Cutting discs and machines for cutting may not be used. ■ Check whether the maximum operating speed of the tool (stitched buffs, abrasive belts, fibre discs, etc.) is higher than that of the machine; ■ Self-adhesive grinding discs must be applied concentrically on the mounting plate. Hazards in the workplace ■ Slipping, tripping up and falling are the main causes of injuries in the workplace. Take note of surfaces which could have be- come slippery through use of the machine, and also any tripping hazards caused by air or hydraulic hoses. ■ These sanders and polishers are not suitable for use in explosive environments and are not insulated against contact with power sources. ■ Do not operate the appliance in the vicinity of electric mains, gas pipelines etc. which could pose a hazard if damaged by the machine.PDAP 75 A1 ■ 10 

Hazards caused by dust and vapours ■ The dust and vapours produced by using sanders and polishers can be hazardous to health (e.g. cause cancer, birth defects, asthma and/or dermatitis); it is essential to carry out a risk assess- ment in respect of these risks and to implement corresponding regulatory mechanisms. ■ The risk assessment should include all dust caused by the use of the machine and the existing dust that may be kicked up at the same time. ■ The sander or polisher is to be operated and maintained in ac- cordance with the recommendations contained in this manual to keep the release of dust and vapours to a minimum. ■ The exhaust air should be routed so that the raising of dust in already dusty environments is kept to a minimum. ■ If dusts or vapours are created, the main priority must be to con- trol these at the site of their release. ■ All inserts or accessories of the machine intended for collecting, extracting or suppressing airborne dust or vapours or should be used and serviced in accordance with the manufacturer’s instruc- tions. ■ Consumables/machine tools should be selected, maintained and replaced in accordance with the recommendations in this guide in order to avoid unnecessary intensification of dust or vapour production. ■ Use a dust mask as per the instructions provided by your employ- er or as required by health and safety regulations.PDAP 75 A1

 11 ■ Risks due to noise ■ Excessive noise levels in conjunction with insufficient hearing protection may lead to permanent hearing damage, hearing loss and other problems, such as tinnitus (ringing, buzzing, whistling or humming in your ears). It is essential that a risk assessment is carried out with respect to these risks and that appropriate regu- latory mechanisms are implemented. ■ Suitable regulatory mechanisms include measures such as the use of insulation materials to avoid ringing noise occurring on the workpieces. ■ Use ear protection as per the instructions provided by your em- ployer or as required by health and safety regulations. ■ The sander or polisher is to be operated and maintained in ac- cordance with the recommendations contained in this manual to reduce any unnecessary increase of the noise levels. ■ Consumables/machine tools should be selected, maintained and replaced in accordance with the recommendations in this guide in order to avoid unnecessary increase of the noise levels. ■ If the sander or polisher is equipped with a silencer, always en- sure that this in its place and is operational while the machine is in operation.PDAP 75 A1 ■ 12 

Risks due to vibrations ■ Vibrations can damage the nerves and cause malfunctions to the blood circulation in the hands and arms. ■ When working in a cold environment, wear warm clothing and keep your hands warm and dry. ■ If you notice numbness, tingling or pain in your fingers or hands or notice that the skin of your fingers or hands has become pale, stop working with the sander or the polisher, inform your employ- er and consult a doctor. ■ The sander or polisher is to be operated and maintained in ac- cordance with the recommendations contained in this manual to reduce any unnecessary increase of the vibrations. ■ Hold the machine securely but not too firmly while maintaining the necessary hand-reaction force, as the vibration risk generally increases the harder the machine is held. Additional safety instructions for pneumatic machines ■ Compressed air can cause serious injury. – Ensure that the air supply is switched off, the hose is not under pressure, that the air supply has been shut off and that the machine is disconnected from the air supply when not in use, and also before exchanging accessories or carrying out repairs. – Never aim the airflow towards yourself or any other person. ■ Thrashing hoses can cause serious injury. Therefore, always check that the hoses and their fixings are not damaged or have not come loose.PDAP 75 A1

 13 ■ ■ If universal rotary joints (claw couplings) are used, locking pins must be used to provide protection; Whipcheck

air hose re- straints must be used to provide protection in case of a failure of the connection of the hose to the machine. ■ Ensure that the maximum permissible pressure on the machine is not exceeded. ■ Never carry pneumatic machines by the hose. Appliance-specific safety instructions for grinders WARNING! ■ Dusts from materials such as leaded paint, some types of wood and metal can be harmful to your health. ■ Contact with or inhalation of these dusts can represent a health hazard for the person operating the appliance and other people in the vicinity. ■ Wear safety goggles and a protective dust mask! Before use Assembly/disassembly of the polishing disc ♦ Screw the polishing disc clockwise onto the screw thread . ♦ To remove the polishing disc , immobilise the thread with the assembly spanner and unscrew the polishing disc anti- clockwise out of the thread .PDAP 75 A1 ■ 14 

Fitting the polishing attachments CAUTION! ► Ensure that the appliance is disconnected from the compressed air source before you fit or remove a polishing attachment

♦ The polishing disc and the supplied polishing attachments , , are equipped with matching Velcro attachments. ♦ Select the polishing hood (orange) for pre-polishing and press it onto the polishing disc . Ensure that it is centred. ♦ Now select the polishing hood (black) for final polishing and press it onto the polishing disc . Ensure that it is centred. ♦ For the final finish, select the fake fur attachment and press it onto the polishing disc . Ensure that it is centred. ♦ To change the attachment, lift one side of the polishing attach- ment , , and pull it off the polishing disc .PDAP 75 A1

 15 ■ Lubrication NOTE ► Regular lubrication is particularly important to avoid friction and corrosion damage. We recommend using a suitable special oil for compressed air appliances (e.g. Liqui Moly compressor oil). – Lubrication with mist oiler A mist oiler (not supplied) continuously and optimally lubri- cates the grinder as a preparation stage after the pressure reducer. A mist oiler gives off fine drops of oil into the air flow and thus guarantees a regular lubrication. – Manual lubrication If you do not have a mist oiler, lubricate the appliance before every use or longer work sessions. Add 3–5 drops of pneumatic oil into the connector nipple

Topping up the oil To ensure that the compressed air polisher remains operational for as long as possible, make sure that there is sufficient pneumatic oil in the appliance. The following options are available: ♦ Attach a maintenance unit with an oiler to the compressor. ♦ Install a fitted oiler into the compressed air line or the compressor. ♦ Add 3–5 drops of pneumatic oil into the connector nipple every 15 minutes of operation.PDAP 75 A1 ■ 16 

Connecting to a compressed air source NOTE ► Before connecting the compressed air source, – the correct working pressure (3–6 bar) must be fully reached – make sure that the trigger is in the upper position ♦ Attach the appliance to a compressor by connecting the connec- tor nipple with the supply hose of the compressed air source. ♦ The compressed air source must be equipped with a pressure reducer so that you can regulate the air pressure. Operation Switching on and off Switching on: ♦ Press the trigger to turn the appliance on. Switching off: ♦ Release the trigger

♦ When you have finished working, disconnect the appliance from the compressed air source. Polishing ♦ Add a little polish to the fitted polishing attachment , and the workpiece. – Polishing hood (orange) for pre-polishing – Polishing hood (black) for final polishing – Fake fur attachment for high-gloss polishing ♦ Manually spread the polish of the surface you want to polish. ♦ Switch on the compressed air source and allow it to run until the maximum tank pressure has been reached.PDAP 75 A1

 17 ■ ♦ Use the pressure reducer on the compressed air source to set the optimum working pressure. Note that the maximum working pressure may not be exceeded. An excessive working pressure does not mean increased output; it merely increases the air con- sumption and accelerates appliance wear. Always comply with the technical information. NOTE ► Do not apply the polish too often to the same surface as the particles it contains could damage the finish. ► Mask any plastic components beforehand as these could be brightened by the polish. ♦ Switch the compressed air polisher on. ♦ Guide the compressed air polisher parallel onto the workpiece. ♦ Move the appliance parallel to and evenly over the surface being polished. ♦ Do not press down on the compressed air polisher. Pressing down hard does not increase the working efficiency! ♦ When you are satisfied with the result, release the trigger

switch off the appliance. ♦ When you have finished working, disconnect the appliance from the compressed air source. CAUTION! ► Depending on the size and nature of the workpiece, suitable safety precautions must be taken. Use suitable clamps to pre- vent the workpiece from slipping. ► In the event of an interruption to the air supply, release the trigger immediately.PDAP 75 A1 ■ 18 

Maintenance and cleaning WARNING! RISK OF INJURY! Disconnect the appliance from the compressed air supply. CAUTION! ► Before maintenance, clean off any hazardous substances that may (due to working processes) have accumulated on the appliance. Avoid all skin contact with these substances. If the skin comes into contact with hazardous dusts, this can lead to severe dermatitis. If dust is produced or swirled up during maintenance, it can be inhaled. NOTE To ensure correct functioning and long-term durability of the compressed air polisher, pay attention to the following points: ■ Sufficient and continuously intact oil lubrication is highly import- ant for optimum functioning. ■ Check the speed and vibration levels after each use. ■ Check the idle speed regularly and after any maintenance is performed: use a rev counter and perform the measurement without any clamped tools. At a residual pressure of 6.3 bar, the idle speed may not be exceeded under any circumstances. ■ If the appliance is exhibiting excessive vibration levels, the cause of the vibrations must be identified and repaired. ■ Use only the genuine replacement parts recommended by the manufacturer, otherwise you could put users at risk. In doubt, contact the Service Centre. ■ Check the polishing disc regularly for damage. ■ Clean the appliance with a soft, dry cloth only. ■ Never use sharp or abrasive cleaning agents under any circumstances.PDAP 75 A1
