RISK OF HAND-ARM VIBRATION INJURY
air supply
STARTING WORK
These tools may cause Hand-arm Vibration Syndrome injury
if their use is not adequately managed. We advise you to
carry out a risk assessment and to implement measures
such as; limiting exposure time [i.e. actual trigger time, not
total time at work], job rotation, ensuring the tools are used
correctly, ensuring the tools are maintained according to
our recommendations, and ensuring that the operators wear
personal protective equipment [PPE] particularly gloves and
clothing to keep them warm. Employers should consider
setting up a programme of health surveillance to establish
a benchmark for each operator and to detect any early
symptoms of vibration injury.
We are not aware of any PPE that provides protection
against vibration injury by attenuating vibration emissions.
See ‘Specications’ section for vibration emission data.
We strongly advise you to visit the Health & Safety
Executive website http://www.hse.gov.uk/vibration
This site provides excellent advice and information on HAV
and currently, includes a Hand-arm Vibration Exposure
Calculator that is easy to use to work out the daily vibration
exposure for each of your operators.
The compressed air must be free from water and dirt.
The installation of a lter/regulator/lubricator air
preparation set (with moisture trap) adjacent to the tool
is strongly recommended.
In particularly cold temperatures it is recommended that a
proprietary anti-freeze lubricating oil is used. Always clear
the air hose before connection to the tool. Ensure that no
moisture (condensation) is present in the air hose. Ensure that
only 10mm (3/8”) bore antistatic air hose is used and that all
couplings are secure, leak free and in good condition.
For maximum eciency, limit the length of air hose to 10M
(33ft). Where extra length is necessary, for each additional
15M (50ft) of air hose used, the pressure drop is approximately
0.16bar (3psi). The correct air pressure for this machine is to
6.2bar (90psi).
Do not let the operating pressure fall below 5.5bar (80psi) or
rise above 6.9bar (100psi) absolute maximum. The compressor
should be able to supply a minimum of 3.77 L/s (8cfm)
of free air not displaced as quoted by some compressor
manufactures, this will give 3cfm of headroom,
so that the compressor isn’t continually running.
NOTE: If this tool stops working, it is most likely that the plastic
(17) ball has worn excessively and may have passed into the
cylinder, check the cylinder exhaust holes for the remnant
also. This is designed to run for approximately 160hrs before
requiring replacement.
Please note we recommend using a lanyard or strap attached
to the optional Drop Protection fall arrestor (39). This should
be attached to a belt or harness, but preferably to a xed and
secure mounting point.
Always use Trelawny Aluminium Bronze Chisels.
Prior to operating the tool check: -
That all ttings are secure, free from leaks and air hoses are in
good condition.
That the air pressure is correct for this tool 6.2 bar (90 p.s.i.).
Put a few drops of a recommended lubricant into the air inlet
of the tool.
Safe use of this tool requires a solid stance and secure
foothold, the tool may be used in other postures but care must
be taken that the operator adopts a rm and stable position.
Maintain contact with the work surface with sucient pressure
only to keep the tool from bouncing.
Excessive pressure can prevent the tool from working to its full
capacity.
Handled correctly the VL303Ex Chisel Scaler will work quickly
and eciently. Excessive operator pressure will not improve
the tool eciency but could cause premature tool failure and
operator fatigue.
Never allow the tool to run continuously whilst not in contact
with the surface being prepared.
To operate the tool, pull the throttle lever (7) towards the
handle and then apply the chisel to the surface to be worked.
To switch o, simply release the throttle lever.
Gloves and personal protective equipment must be worn
when using this tool.
WARNING! VERY IMPORTANT
Only Trelawny Aluminium Bronze Chisels must be used
in this tool.
DO NOT substitute with any other Chisel.

VL303EX Chisel Scaler
MAINTENANCE
Maintenance must only be carried out by a competent
person, in a suitably equipped workshop.
Disconnect the tool from the air supply before carrying out
any of the following operations.
Clean all debris from the exterior of the tool.
This tool has been designed so that you only require a
vice, screwdriver, 3mm pin punch, 6mm allen key and light
hammer, no other specialist tools are required to completely
strip and service the tool.
For safe ecient running and at intervals of no more than 120
hours, dismantle and clean with highly rened paran.

completing this operation.
Fitting of Chisel Holder
The Chisel Holder assembly comprises of an Anvil, Spring,
Chisel Holder and the Chisel. To t the Chisel Holder, rst t
the spring onto the Anvil locating against the large shoulder.
Fit this assembly into the intermediate tube and locate the
large at face of the Anvil against the front face of the piston.
Ensure that the pinch bolt on the Chisel Holder is loose and
screw the Chisel Holder fully on to the intermediate tube.
Then unscrew slightly to position the boss underneath the tool
and tighten the pinch bolt using a 6mm AF Allen key. Turn the
knurled collar on the Chisel Holder until the retaining ball is
fully visible; insert the Chisel aligning the rebate with the ball.
Position the middle of the rebate on the shank of the Chisel
with the retaining ball and turn the collar half a turn to lock the
Chisel in place. To release the Chisel, rotate the knurled collar
until the retaining ball is fully visible and remove the Chisel.
Dismantle into component form, segregate according to
material composition and dispose of using waste recycling
processes specied by local regulations.

Noise Levels: Noise level measured in accordance with: EN ISO 15744: 2008
Vibration Levels: Vibration measured in accordance with: EN ISO 28927-9:2012 and EN ISO 20643:2005. (k) Equals the factor of uncertainty, which allows for variations in
measurement and production. Vibration Data gures are tri-axial, which gives the total vibration emission. Because of various factors, the range of vibration from these
tools may vary between -0% +40% (3.7 m/s2 -6.02 m/s2). The vibration is dependent on the task, the operators grip and feed force employed etc.
NOTE: The above vibration levels were obtained from tri-axial measurements to comply with the requirements of “The Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005*” and
the revisions to the (8662) now EN ISO 28927-9:2012 and EN ISO 20643:2005 series of standards. These values are at least 1.4 times larger than the values obtained from
single axis measurements. *Based on European Union Council Directive 2002/44/EC (Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive)).
