PREPARING TOOL FOR USE

• Air Supply
•  Ensure the tool valve (or trigger) is in the “off” position before connecting to the air supply.
•  You will require air pressure of 90psi, and airflow according to specification.
•  p WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90 psi while operating the tool.
• Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the product life due to excessive wear and may be dangerous causing damage and/or personal injury.
•  Drain the air tank daily. Water in the airline will damage the tool.
•  Clean air inlet filter weekly. Recommended hook-up procedure is shown in fig 1.
•  Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 meters).
• The minimum hose diameter should be 1/4” I.D. and fittings must have the same inside dimensions. 3.1.7. Keep hose away from heat, oil, and sharp edges. Check the hose for wear, and make certain that all
  connections are secure.

Couplings.
Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the tool. To overcome this, connect a leader hose to the tool. A quick change coupling may then be used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose. See fig 1 & 2.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! Ensure you read, understand and apply safety instructions before use.

•  Remove the shears from the package. The tool should be assembled and ready to use.
•  Connect the shears to the air hose as in chapter 3.
•  To start the shears, depress the throttle lever.
  DO NOT allow the shears to free run for an extended period of time as this will shorten their life.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING! Disconnect tool from air supply before changing accessories, servicing or performing maintenance. Replace or repair damaged parts. Use genuine parts only. Unauthorized parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.: Numbers in brackets refer to item numbers in the parts diagram.

• To replace the blades (30, 31, and 32), unscrew the three lock screws (29) and slide the cutter housing (28) off the motor housing (1). Remove the two lock screws (33 ) that secure the blades (30, 31 and 32) and remove the blades. Fit new blades, ensure the spacer (34) is correctly positioned, and refit the lock screws. Slide the cutter housing onto the motor housing and secure using the lock screw. Tighten all three lock screws.
• Lubricate the tool daily with a few drops of Sealey air tool oil dripped into the air inlet. 5.3. Clean the tool after use.
•  Loss of power or erratic action may be due to the following: a) Excessive drain on the airline. Moisture or restriction in the air pipe. Incorrect size or type of hose connectors. To remedy check the air supply and follow instructions in chapter 3.
•  Grit or gum deposits in the tool may also reduce performance. Flush the tool out with gum solvent oil or an equal mixture of SAE No 10 oil and paraffin.
• Allow drying before use.
• For a full service contact your local Sealey service agent.
• When not in use, disconnect from the air supply, clean tool, and store in a safe, dry, childproof location.

Risk of Hand Arm Vibration Injury.
Air Shears Model No. SA53.V3, when operated in accordance with these instructions and tested in accordance with BS EN 28662-1:1993, ISO 8662-1:1988, and BS EN ISO 28927-7:2009 results in the following vibration emission declared in accordance with BS EN12096:1996.

Measured vibration emission value: 2.5m/s² Uncertainty: 1m/s²
These values are suitable for comparison with emission levels of other tools that have been subject to the same test.

This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is inadequately managed.
This is a ‘NO LOAD’ vibration figure.
A competent person should carry out a risk assessment following HSE guidelines.
Measurement results can be highly variable, depending on many factors, including the operator’s technique, the condition of the work equipment, the material being processed, and the measurement method.

Recommended Measures to reduce risk of hand-arm vibration syndrome:
We recommend appropriate safety equipment is utilized and regular breaks for the operator are employed to reduce any residual risk of fatigue or repetitive strain injury.
