5 GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to heed warnings and follow instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Keep safety warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the safety warnings refers to your mainsoperated (corded) power tool or battery- operated (cordless) power tool.

5.1 Working area

 Keep working area clean and well lit. Untidy and dark areas can lead to accidents.  Do not operate power tools in potentially explosive surroundings, for example, in the

presence of inflammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

 Keep children and bystanders at a distance when operating a power tool. Distractions can

cause you to lose control of it.

5.2 Electrical safety

 Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.  Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use

adapter plugs with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of an electric shock.

 Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, kitchen ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of an electric shock if your body is earthed.

 Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. If water gets inside a power tool, it

will increase the risk of an electric shock.

 Do not damage the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power

tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of an electric shock.

 When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cable suitable for outdoor use.

Using a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of an electric shock.

 If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a power supply protected

by a residual current device (RCD). Using an RCD reduces the risk of an electric shock.

5.3 Personal safety

 Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power

tool. Do not use a power tool when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention when operating a power tool may result in serious personal injury.

 Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Using safety equipment such as a

dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hard hat, or hearing protection whenever it is needed will reduce the risk of personal injury.

 Avoid accidental starts. Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting the plug.

Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools when the switch is in the on position makes accidents more likely.

 Remove any adjusting keys or spanners before turning on the power tool. A spanner or

key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

Page 5

POWX086 & 087 EN

 Do not reach out too far. Keep your feet firmly on the ground at all times. This will enable

you retain control over the power tool in unexpected situations.

 Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and

gloves away from the power tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can become entangled in the moving parts.

 If there are devices for connecting dust extraction and collection facilities, please ensure

that they are attached and used correctly. Using such devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

5.4 Power tool use and care

 Do not expect the power tool to do more than it can. Use the correct power tool for what

you want to do. A power tool will achieve better results and be safer if used in the context for which it was designed.

 Do not use the power tool if the switch cannot turn it on and off. A power tool with a

broken switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

 Disconnect the plug from the power source before making adjustments, changing

accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

 Store power tools, when not in use, out of the reach of children and do not allow people

who are not familiar with the power tool or these instructions to operate it. Power tools are potentially dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

 Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or jammed moving parts, breakages or any

other feature that might affect the operation of the power tool. If it is damaged, the power tool must be repaired. Many accidents are caused by using poorly maintained power tools.

 Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting

edges are less likely to jam and are easier to control.

 Use the power tool, accessories and cutting tools, etc., in accordance with these

instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work which needs to be done. Using a power tool in ways for which it was not intended can lead to potentially hazardous situations.

5.5 Service

 Your power tool should be serviced by a qualified specialist using only standard spare

parts. This will ensure that it meets the required safety standards.

 .

6 SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS

 It is only possible to work safely with this tool if you read these instructions for its use and

maintenance thoroughly and follow the instructions meticulously.

 Please also observe the other safely instructions included in the delivery scope of every

tool.

 Before using the tool, always check the flexible supply lead and the plug. Any faults must

be repaired by an expert.

 The tool must not be used in damp and wet rooms, in the open in rain, fog, snow or in any

area in which there is a risk of explosion.

 Before connecting the tool to the electricity mains, make sure that it is switched off. Check

the position of the corresponding switch where necessary.

 Take care with long hair and fashion accessories. Always wear close-fitting, properly

fastened clothing without any loose parts when working with the tool.

 Secure the container holding the substance you wish to mix on the floor to prevent it

moving.

Page 6

POWX086 & 087 EN

 Always guide the flexible supply lead to the back away from the tool. Do not exert any

strain on the flexible lead by pulling it, and make sure that it is not lying on or guided over any sharp edges.

 Take care when working that you are standing in a safe and secure position.  Always use the additional handle.  Expect there to be a torque reaction.

7 OPERATION

Improper use can cause damage to the tool.

Please observe the following instructions:

 only use tools up to the prescribed diameter  only use the tool at loads which do not reduce the speed severely or bring the tool to a

standstill

 Check whether the data on the type plate comply with the actual voltage of the mains

supply. Tools intended for 230 V may also be connected to 220 V / 240 V.

7.1 Fitting the mixing tool

Screw the tools with the end piece M 14 x 2 as far as possible into the tool holding fixture and tighten with the spanner (22 mm) included in the accessories.

7.2 Switching on and off

To switch the tool on, press the switch (1) and hold it down. To switch the tool off, release the switch (1).

7.3 Continuous operation

To switch on continuous operation: press the switch (1) up to the stop and at the same time press the locking button (2). The switch (1) locks, and continuous operation is activated. To switch off continuous operation: press the switch (1) again and then let go. The lock on the switch (1) is released, and continuous operation is deactivated.

7.4 Removing tools (mixer)

Fit the flat spanner (22 mm) onto the hexagon of the tool end piece (mixer) and turn to the left to unscrew the tool from the spindle.

8 MOTOR ELECTRONICS / OPERATING MOTOR ELECTRONICS

8.1 Starting current limiting

The electronically controlled soft start ensures that the machine starts smoothly. This also prevents spray from thin liquids when the tool is switched on. The lower starting current means that a 16 A fuse is large enough for the machine.

8.2 Idling speed reduction

The electronic control lowers the speed of the machine during idling. This reduces noise and wear on the motor and gears.

8.3 Speed preselection

The speed can be preselected steplessly with the speed controller (7). The necessary speed depends on the type of material you wish to mix; we recommend practical testing to determine the right speed.

Page 7

POWX086 & 087 EN

8.4 Gear selector switch

Two speed ranges can be selected with the gear selector switch (5) : Gear 1 150 min-1 to 300 min-1, Gear 2 300 min-1 to 650 min-1 It is possible to change gear when the machine is running. However, this should not be done when the machine is at full load.

8.5 Constant electronics

The constant electronics keeps the speed virtually constant during idling and under a load. This guarantees that materials are mixed uniformly.

8.6 Electronic overload protection

An electronic overload device protects the motor against damage when the tool is under an extreme load. In this case, the motor stops and only starts up again when the feed is reduced or the load removed (only model POWX087)

8.7 Temperature-dependent overload protection

To prevent the motor from overheating under an extreme continuous load, the safety electronics switches the motor off when it reaches a critical temperature. After a cooling-down time of around 3 - 5 min., the machine is ready for operation at full load. If the tool is warm from operation, the temperature-dependent overload protection will respond earlier.

9 MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Attention !Before performing any work on the equipment, pull the power plug.

 Liquids must not be allowed to get into the inside of the appliance. Use a soft doth to clean

the casing. Never use gasoline, solvents or cleaning agents that are aggressive on plastics.

 Wherever possible, always clean the mixing tools immediately after finishing work.  Clean the air vents on the motor housing from time to time.  When the carbon brushes have run out ,the tool switches itself off.  Check the carbon brushes after approx. 100 hours of operation; if necessary replace  them and clean the motor housing.  Refill the grease in the gearbox after around 200 hours of operation.

CAUTION! To maintain the protective insulation, a safety inspection must subsequently be carried out on the machine. For this reason, such work must only be performed by an electrical workshop.
