7 General safety information 1. Operator s care The NIKO pneumatic pruning shear was designed and constructed under consideration of a threat analysis and after an accurate selection of the maintained norms as well as well as some further technical specifications. That accords to the state-of-the-art and guarantees a maximum safeness. That safeness can just be obtained when all necessary measures are considered. It is the liability of the operator to arrange these measures and to control their execution. The operator has to make sure that... - The shear has to be used according to the regulations (see chapter Product Description ). - The shear will be operated in a proper and fully functional condition. - All necessary protective equipments for the operator are at your disposal and are used as well. - The operation instruction is in a legible condition and is available at the location. - That only adequate qualified and authorized persons work with the shear, repair and maintain it. - That the employees are always able to answer all the questions concerning job safety and environmental protection. - That the operator wears a safety glove. 2. Main safety measures - It is forbidden to remove the operator s guards. - Reparations and changes of spare parts may be done if the shear is disconnected to the compressor. - It is advisable to wear a safety gloves in both hands. - Reparations should be effected by a specialist dealer. - Never let the shear open and unattended. - We recommend to put the shear in a leather holster when you have a break. 3. Requirements to the employees The operator must be full aged and in a good condition. To avoid any injuries a safety glove must be weared. For keeping safeness, the shear should be transported in a leather holster during breaks. 5

8 Operation -Before using the shear for the first time please check if all connections are tighten. Please also check if all are movable (eg. Blade, double link). 1. Establishing maintenance- and disposal connections - The shear has to be connected to the maintenance connection. It has to allocate a operating pressure between 8 and 16 bar (normal value approximately 12 bar). - The inner diameter of the feed line has to be 4mm for a shear type NP 15/20 and NP 25/30. For a type NP 35/40 the inner diameter is 6mm. - The required air quantity is between 100 and 150 liter per minute. That depends on the type of shear. - The compressed air must be clean, free of condensation water and oileous. For producing it requires a filter, an oiler and a water separator. For producing a filter, a water separator and an oiler are necessary. 2. Working with the shear - To close the blade you have to open the interlock first. - The blade closes by pressing the operating lever. - By loosing the operating lever the blade opens. Attention!!! Please respect the safety instructions 6

9 Help with breakdowns Possible breakdowns and ist clearance Reason Help Blade does not close - Not enough air pressure - Supply line blocked or snapped off Blade blocked or closes too slow - Hexagon screw NP 5 too much tightened - Loose hexagon screw NP 5 - Blade blocked because of less lubrication - Regrind or change the two blades - Double links run hard because pins are too - Decrease clamping torque much tightend Shear runs hard - Wrong pneumatic oil - Use special NIKO pneumatic oil - Too much humidity in the system - Deflate water separator and control ist function Air loss at the cylinder - Piston or O-rings do not - Call a garage work Air loss at the valve body - Druckbolzen NP 26 mit - Call a garage Dichtungen defekt - Valve body NP 18 - Call a garage eingelaufen oder defekt - Röhrchen NP 36 lose - Call a garage Blades do not cut - Klinge verschlissen Maintenance 1. Cleaning and lubricating Keep the function of the shear by constant maintenance and cleaning. Below you will find the most important maintenance works that have to be done. - Check all flexible parts if there is any abrasion. - Clean and lubricate the contact surface between the two blades (every 10 hours with grease). - Lubricate the double links and pins (every 10 hours with grease or oil). - Clean the filter and renew it after 100 operating hours at the latest. - Grinding the blade (if necessary). 7
