20.  Do not use power tools in damp or wet 

location, or expose them to rain. Keep work 
area well lighted. 

21.  Do not leave a connected tool unattended. 

When not in use, disconnect tool from air 
source. 

22.  Shut off air supply and discharge any residual 

pressure from tool before removing hose, 
making adjustments, changing accessories, 
or storing tool. 

23.  Make sure tool is switched off, and your finger 

off the trigger, before connecting to air supply.

in serious injury. 

27.  Do not force a tool or attachment to do a job

28. Repetitive motions and/or exposure to 

constant vibration can be harmful to hands 
and arms. Take frequent breaks and relax 
hands during extended operation. Change 
posture to avoid discomfort or fatigue. 

29.  Compressed air can be harmful if directed 

toward sensitive areas of the body, and may 

propel small particles caught in the air stream. 
Exercise proper caution. 

30. 

Use only recommended accessories; 
improper accessories may be hazardous. 

31.  Maintain tools with care. Keep air tool clean 

and oiled for best and safest performance. 

32. Do not use combustible gases, carbon 

dioxide, oxygen or any bottled gas as an air 
source for the tool. These can present risk of 
explosion and serious injury. 

33.  Do not lubricate the tool with combustible 

liquids, such as kerosene, diesel or jet fuel. 

34.  Do not dispose of this tool with normal 

household waste. Never dispose of the air tool 
into fire.
