GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in

electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your

pneumatic tool.

WARNING! The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot

cover all possible conditions or situations that could occur. It must be understood by the operator that

common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by

the operator.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WORK AREA

• Keep work area clean, free of clutter and well lit. Cluttered and dark work areas can cause accidents.

• Do not use your tool where there is a risk of causing a fire or an explosion; e.g. in the presence of

flammable liquids, gasses, or dust. Power tools create sparks, which may ignite the dust or fumes.

• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose

control, so visitors should remain at a safe distance from the work area.

• Be aware of all power lines, electrical circuits, water pipes and other mechanical hazards in your work

area, particularly those hazards below the work surface hidden from the operator's view that may be

unintentionally contacted and may cause personal harm or property damage.

• Be alert of your surroundings. Using power tools in confined work areas may put you dangerously close to

cutting tools and rotating parts.

PERSONAL SAFETY

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a

power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention

while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves

away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Air vents often

cover moving parts and should be avoided.

• Use safety apparel and equipment. Use safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields which comply

with current national standards, or when needed, a face shield. Use a dust mask in dusty work conditions.

This applies to all persons in the work area. Also use non-skid safety shoes, hardhat, gloves, dust collection

systems, and hearing protection when appropriate.

• Avoid accidental starting. Do not carry the power tool with your finger on the switch. Ensure the switch is in

the off position before plugging tool into power outlet. In the event of a power failure, while a tool is being

used, turn the switch off to prevent surprise starting when power is restored.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before connecting to the power supply or turning on the tool. A wrench

or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.

• Avoid unintentional starting. Do not carry any tool with your finger on the trigger, whether it is connected to

the compressor or not.

PNEUMATIC TOOL USE AND CARE

• Compressed air only. Only use clean, dry and regulated compressed air to power this tool. Never use

oxygen, carbon dioxide or any other bottled gas as a power source for this tool.

• Do not force the tool. Tools do a better and safer job when used in the manner for which they are designed.

Plan your work, and use the correct tool for the job.

• Never use a tool with a malfunctioning switch. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is

dangerous and must be repaired by an authorized service representative before using.

• Disconnect air supply from tool and place the switch in the locked or off position before servicing, adjusting,

installing accessories or attachments, or storing. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting

the power tool accidentally.

• Secure work with clamps or a vise instead of your hand to hold work when practical. This safety precaution

allows for proper tool operation using both hands.

• Store idle tools. When tools are not is use, store them in a dry, secure place out of the reach of children.

Inspect tools for good working condition prior to storage and before re-use.

• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be

suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury when used on another tool.

• Keep guards in place and in working order.

• Never leave tool running unattended.

• Maintain tools with care.Keep tools clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for

lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect compressor’s cord periodically and, if damaged, have them

repaired by an authorized technician. Inspect all hoses for leaks prior to use. The handles must be kept clean,

dry, and free from oil and grease at all times.

• Use proper size and type air pressure line and fittings for this tool.

• Drain compressor every day. Do not allow moisture to build up inside the compressor. Do not allow

compressor to sit pressurized for longer than one hour.

• Use air hoses rated for safe operation of the tool. Make sure the hose is free of obstructions or snags.

Entangled hoses can cause loss of balance or footing.

• Make sure all equipment is rated to the appropriate capacity. Make sure that regulator is set at least 10

PSI lower than the lowest rated piece of equipment you are using.

WARNING

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other

construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to

cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of

these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this

type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well

ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust

masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
