PERSONAL SAFEtY 

Stay alert.  Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating an 

1. 

air tool.  Do not use an air tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or 

medication.  A moment of inattention while operating air tools may result in serious 
personal injury.

Dress properly.  Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.  Contain long hair.  Keep 

2. 

your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.  Loose clothes, jewelry, or 
long hair can be caught in moving parts.

Avoid accidental starting.  Be sure the Power Switch (45) is in its “STOP” position, all

and before performing any service, maintenance, or cleaning procedures on the 
unit.

Do not force the tool.  Use the correct tool for your application.  The correct tool will 

1. 

do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

Do not use the Compressor if the Compressor’s Power Switch (45) does not turn it 

2. 

on or off.  Any tool that cannot be controlled with its Pressure Switch is dangerous 
and must not be used until repaired.

Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons.  Tools are 

3. 

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain tools with care.  Properly maintained tools are less likely to bind and are 

4. 

easier to control.  Do not use a damaged tool.  Tag damaged tools “Do not use” 
until repaired.

Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other 

5. 

condition that may affect the tool’s operation.  If damaged, have the tool serviced 
before using.  Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.  

6. 

Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used 
on another tool.
