securely assembled.
•
Never operate tools near flammable
substances such as gasoline,
naptha, cleaning solvents, etc.
•
Work in a clean, well ventilated
area free of combustible materials.
•
Use compressed air regulated to
a maximum pressure at or below
the rated pressure of any
attachments.
•
Always wear ANSI S3.19 hearing

RISK OF EYE OR HEAD INJURY
IMPROPER OPERATION OR MAINTENANCE OF THIS PRODUCT COULD RESULT
IN SERIOUS INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE. READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL
WARNINGS AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS EQUIP-
MENT.
WHEN USING AIR TOOLS, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE
FOLLOWED TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY.
•
Air powered equipment and power
tools are capable of propelling
materials such as metal chips, saw
dust, and other debris at high speed,
which could result in serious eye
injury.
•
Compressed air can be hazardous.
The air stream can cause injury to
soft tissue areas such as eyes, ears,
etc. Particles or objects propelled by
the stream can cause injury.
•
Tool attachments can become loose
or break and fly apart propelling
particles at the operator and others in
the work area.
•
Abrasive tools such as sanders and
grinders, rotating tools such as drills,
and impact tools such as wrenches are
capable of generating sparks which
could result in ignition of flammable
materials.
•
Exceeding the maximum pressure
rating of tools or accessories could
cause an explosion resulting in serious
injury.
•
Long term exposure to noise produced
from the operation of air tools can lead
to permanent hearing loss.
•
Abrasive tools, such as grinders and
sanders generate dust and abrasive
materials which can be harmful to
human lungs and respiratory system.
•
Some materials such as adhesives and
tar, contain chemicals whose vapors
could cause serious injury with
prolonged exposure.
