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.

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.

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.

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.

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 GB│IE│NI │ 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

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.

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 GB│IE│NI │ 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 to
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.
