INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK
OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY
TO PERSONS
WARNING
When using tools, basic precautions
should always be followed, including
the following:
General
a) To reduce the risks of electric shock,
fire, and injury to persons, read all
the instructions before using the tool.
Work area
a) Keep the work area clean and well
lighted. Clutteredbenchesanddarkareas
increasetherisksofelectricshock,re,
andinjurytopersons.
b) Do not operate the tool in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust.Thetool
isabletocreatesparksresultinginthe
ignitionofthedustorfumes.
c)Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating the tool.Distractions
areabletoresultinthelossofcontrolof
thetool.
Personal safety
a)Stay alert. Watch what you are doing
and use common sense when operating
the tool. Do not use the tool while tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication.Amomentofinattentionwhile
operatingthetoolincreasestheriskof
injurytopersons.
b) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.
Keep hair, clothing, and gloves away from
moving parts.Looseclothes,jewelry,or
longhairincreasestheriskofinjuryto
personsasaresultofbeingcaughtin
movingparts.
c) Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure
the switch is off before connecting to
the air supply.Donotcarrythetoolwith
yourngerontheswitchorconnectthe
tooltotheairsupplywiththeswitchon.
d)Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times.Properfooting
andbalanceenablesbettercontrolof
thetoolinunexpectedsituations.

SAFETY SAFETY
e)Use safety equipment.Adustmask,
non-skidsafetyshoesandahardhatmust
beusedfortheapplicableconditions.
f)Always wear eye protection.
g)Always wear hearing protection when
using the tool.Prolongedexposuretohigh
intensitynoiseisabletocausehearing
loss.
NOTE: It is acceptable to add “for
extended periods” at the end of the first
sentence if the tool sound level does
not exceed 85 dBA as determined
in accordance with Noise Emission,
Section 16.
h)WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock.
This tool is not provided with an insulated
gripping surface. Contact with a live wire
will also make exposed metal parts of
the tool live and a risk of electric shock
to the operator
i)Avoid body contact with grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators.Thereisanincreasedrisk
ofelectricshockifyourbodyisgrounded.
j)Explore the workpiece to avoid contact
with hidden wiring.Thoroughlyinvestigate
theworkpieceforpossiblehiddenwiring
beforeperformingwork.Contactwithlive
wiringwillshocktheoperator.
Tool use and care
a)Use clamps or another practical way
to secure and support the workpiece to
a stable platform.Holdingtheworkby
handoragainstthebodyisunstableand
isabletoleadtolossofcontrol.
b)Do not force the tool.Usethecorrect
toolfortheapplication.Thecorrecttoolwill
dothejobbetterandsaferattheratefor
whichthetoolisdesigned.
c)Do not use the tool if the switch does
not turn the tool on or off.Anytoolthat
cannotbecontrolledwiththeswitchis
dangerousandmustberepaired.
d)Disconnect the tool from the air source
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool.Such
preventivesafetymeasuresreducethe
riskofstartingthetoolunintentionally.
e)Store the tool when it is idle out of reach
of children and other untrained persons.
Atoolisdangerousinthehandsof
untrainedusers.
f)Maintain the tool with care.
Keepacuttingtoolsharpandclean.
Aproperlymaintainedtool,withsharp
cuttingedgesreducestheriskofbinding
andiseasiertocontrol.
g)Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that affects the tool’s
operation.Ifdamaged,havethetool
servicedbeforeusing.Manyaccidentsare
causedbypoorlymaintainedtools.Thereis
ariskofburstingifthetoolisdamaged.
h)Use only accessories that are identified
by the manufacturer for the specific tool
model.Useofanaccessorynotintended
forusewiththespecictoolmodel,
increasestheriskofinjurytopersons.

Service
a)Tool service must be performed only
by qualified repair personnel.
b) When servicing a tool, use only
identical replacement parts. Use only
authorized parts.
c)Use only the lubricants supplied with
the tool or specified by the manufacturer.
Air source
a)Never connect to an air source that is
capable of exceeding 200 psi (Poundsper
squareinch).Overpressurizingthetoolis
abletoresultinbursting,abnormal

NOTE! The level of the oil, for example at
the halfway mark, may be visible in the
tank’s oil level sight glass. This does not,
however, indicate the actual level of the oil.
The position of the piston, also visible in the
oil level sight glass, provides the only true
indication of the amount of oil in the tank.
When the piston has been pushed down it is
no longer visible in the oil level sight glass.

OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS TOOL USE AND SERVICE
Tool use and care
a) Use clamps or another practical way
to secure and support the workpiece
to a stable platform.Holdingthework
 byhandoragainstthebodyisunstable
 andisabletoleadtolossofcontrol.
b) Do not force the tool.Usethecorrect
 toolfortheapplication.Thecorrecttool
 willdothejobbetterandsaferatthe
 rateforwhichthetoolisdesigned.
c)Do not use the tool if the switch does
not turn the tool on or off.Anytoolthat
 cannotbecontrolledwiththeswitchis
 dangerousandmustberepaired.
d)Disconnect the tool from the air source
before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the
tool.Suchpreventivesafetymeasures
 reducetheriskofstartingthetool
 unintentionally.
e)Store the tool when it is idle out of
reach of children and other untrained
persons.Atoolisdangerousinthe
 handsofuntrainedusers.
f)Maintain the tool with care.Keepa

 maintainedtool,withsharpcutting
 edgesreducestheriskofbindingandis

g)Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, and
any other condition that affects the
tool’s operation.Ifdamaged,havethe

by the manufacturer for the specific
tool model.Useofanaccessorynot

Service
a)Tool service must be performed only by
qualified repair personnel.
b)When servicing a tool, use only
identical replacement parts. Use only
