1. Work area safety 

a. 

 Keep work area clean and well lit. 

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. 

b.

  Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the 

presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.

 Power tools create sparks 

which may ignite the dust or fumes. 

c.  

Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.

 

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

d.  

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, 
clothing and gloves away from moving parts.

 Loose clothes, jewellery or 

long hair can be caught in moving parts.

e.  

Check the maximum pressure rating of any tools or accessories that you 
intend using with the compressor.

 The output pressure of the air from the 

compressor must be regulated so that it never exceeds the rated pressure of 
the tool or accessory.

f.   

Always wear high safety goggles or glasses when using the air tools.

 Never 

point the air tool towards any part of your body or towards another person.

g.  

Drain the moisture from the tank daily.

 It will help prevent corrosion.

h.  Use safety equipment including safety goggles and ear protection, the tool 

operator and all persons in the working area must wear safety goggles and ear 
protection.

i. Air tools should not be used in a potentially explosive environment.
j.  

The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.

 Any use other than 

those mentioned in this Manual will be considered a case of misuse. The user 
and not the manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or injury resulting from 
such cases of misuse.

GENERAL AIR TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING!

 Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow 

the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or 

serious injury.  

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. 

WARNING!

 In the event that an air line is cut or broken, the air supply 

must be turned off at the compressor. A broken air line which is not 

supported is extremely dangerous and can whip around very quickly, both 

with the capability of striking people, and blowing foreign particles into 

the air.
 Do not attempt to catch the air line but immediately keep bystanders well 

clear and turn off the air supply to the hose, turn off the compressor at the 

On / Off button, and then remove the hose from the compressor.
