connecting to the air supply. Do not
carry the tool with your nger on the
trigger or connect the tool to the air supply with the trigger pressed.
d. Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Work area
a. Keep the work area clean and well
lighted. Cluttered benches and dark
areas increase the risks of electric
shock, re, and injury to persons.
b. Do not operate the tool in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence
of ammable liquids, gases, or dust. The tool is able to create sparks resulting in the ignition of the dust or fumes.
c. Keep bystanders, children, and
visitors away while operating the tool. Distractions are able to result in the loss of control of the tool.
Personal safety
a. Stay alert. Watch what you are
doing and use common sense when operating the tool. Do not use the
tool while tired or under the inuence
of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the tool increases the risk of injury to persons.
e. Use safety equipment. A
dust mask, non-skid safety shoes and a hard hat must be
used for the applicable conditions. Wear heavy-duty work gloves during use.
f. Always wear eye protection.
Wear ANSI-approved safety
goggles with side shields.
g.
Always wear hearing
protection when using the
tool. Prolonged exposure to
high intensity noise is able to cause hearing loss.
h. Do not attach the hose or tool to your
body. Attach the hose to the structure to reduce the risk of loss of balance if the hose shifts.
i. Always assume that the tool contains
fasteners. Do not point the tool toward yourself or anyone whether it contains fasteners or not.
b. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry, or long hair increases the risk of injury to persons as a result of being caught in moving parts.
c. Avoid unintentional starting. Be
sure the trigger is released before

to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work
by hand or against the body is unstable and can lead to loss of control.
b. Do not force the tool. Use the correct
tool for the application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which the tool is designed.

Service
a. Tool service must be performed only
by qualied repair personnel.
b. When servicing a tool, use only
identical replacement parts. Use only authorized parts.
d. Disconnect the tool from the air
source before making adjustments, doing tool maintenance, clearing jams, touching the safety nosepiece, leaving work area, loading, or unloading the tool. Such precautionary
measures reduce the risk of injury to persons.
e. Store the tool when it is idle out of
reach of children and other untrained persons. A tool is dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
f. Maintain the tool with care. A properly
maintained tool reduces the risk of binding and is easier to control.
g. Check for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that affects the tool’s operation. If damaged,
have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools. There is a risk of bursting if the tool is damaged.

Always verify prior to using the tool that the air source has been adjusted to the rated air pressure or within the rated air-pressure range.
b. Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide,
combustible gases or any bottled gas as an air source for the tool. Such
gases are capable of explosion and serious injury to persons.
h. Use only accessories that are
