Air Tool Cautions
•
DO NOT use air tools that are rated below the maximum rating of the compressor. Select air tools, air
hoses, pipes, valves, filters and other fittings accordingly. DO NOT exceed manufacturer’s rated safe
operating pressures for these items.
• Make sure all hose connections are adequately secured to prevent tools or hose ends from being
accidentally disconnected.
• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or key that is left attached to a
moving part of the tool may result in personal injury.
• Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark work areas invite accidents.
• Keep children away.
All children should be kept away from the work area. Never let a child handle a tool without strict adult
supervision.
• Store idle tools out of the reach of children and untrained persons.
Tools may be dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
•
Do not operate any tool if under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Read warning labels on prescriptions to determine if your judgment or reflexes are impaired while taking
drugs. If there is any doubt, do not attempt to operate.
• Do not force tool.
Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
•
Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Check for damage. Check your tool regularly. If part of the tool is damaged it should be carefully
inspected to make sure that it can perform its’ intended function correctly. If in doubt, the part should be
repaired. Refer all servicing to a qualified technician. Consult your dealer for advice.
• Maintain tools with care.
Keep tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges, are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
