Specific Safety instructions
1. The warnings and precautions discussed in this
manual cannot cover all possible conditions and
situations that may 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.
2. WARNING: The brass components of
this product contain lead, a chemical
known to the State of California to cause
birth defects (or other reproductive harm).
(California Health & Safety code § 25249.5,
et seq.
)
3. Only use with accessories rated to handle the
forces exerted by this tool during operation.
Other accessories not designed for the forces
generated may break and forcefully launch pieces.
4. Attach all accessories properly to the tool before
connecting the air supply. A loose accessory
may detach or break during operation.
5. Obey the manual for the air compressor
used to power this tool.
6. Install an in-line shutoff valve to allow
immediate control over the air supply in an
emergency, even if a hose is ruptured.
7. Use this tool with both hands only. Using tools
with only one hand can result in loss of control.
8. Do not lay the tool down until it has come to
a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the
surface and pull the tool out of your control.
Vibration precautions
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term
exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent
physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and
shoulders. To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an
extended period should first be examined by a
doctor and then have regular medical check-ups to
ensure medical problems are not being caused or
worsened from use. Pregnant women or people who
have impaired blood circulation to the hand, past
hand injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes,
or Raynaud's Disease should not use this tool.
If you feel any symptoms related to vibration (such
as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers),
seek medical advice as soon as possible.
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces
the blood supply to the hands and fingers,
increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.
3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the
vibration effects on the user.
4. Use tools with the lowest vibration
when there is a choice.
5. Include vibration-free periods each day of work.
6. Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping
safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.
7. To reduce vibration, maintain
tool as explained in this manual.
If abnormal vibration occurs, stop immediately.
