In future the newly added cord grip on the underside of the workstation or tool stand will provide more safety. The flexible supply cable for both compressed air and electric wires is subject to heavy mechanical loads.

The connection point of the cable was its weak point against constant mechanical load. The effects of the constant pulling cause the external insulation to separate from the inside cables.
