Do not operate the tool in explo-b.
sive 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.
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.
Keep bystanders, children, and c.
visitors away while operating the
tool. Distractions are able to result in
the loss of control of the tool.
Personal safety
Stay alert. Watch what you are do-a.
ing and use common sense when
operating the tool. Do not use the
tool while tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating the tool increases the risk
of injury to persons.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose b.
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.
Avoid unintentional starting. Be c.
sure the switch is off before connecting to the air supply. Do not
carry the tool with your nger on the
switch or connect the tool to the air
supply with the switch on.
Do not overreach. Keep proper d.
footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
f. Always wear eye protec-
tion. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles.
g. Always wear hearing
protection when using
the tool. Prolonged expo-
sure to high intensity noise
is able to cause hearing
loss.
DANGER! Keep hands and body h.
away from cutting area and blade.
Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle or motor housing.
Contact with the blade will result in a
serious injury.
Do not reach underneath the work. i.
The guard does not protect you from
the blade below the work.
Never hold a piece being cut in j.
your hands or across your leg. It is
important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade
binding, or loss of control.
Tool use and care
Use clamps or another practical a.
way to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against
the body is unstable and is able to
lead to loss of control.
Do not force the tool. b. 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.
Do not use the tool if the switch c.
does not turn the tool on or off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
Service
Tool service must be performed a.
only by qualied repair personnel.
When servicing a tool, use only b.
identical replacement parts. Use
only authorized parts.
Disconnect the tool from the air d.
source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing the tool. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool unintentionally. Turn
off and detach the air supply, safely
discharge any residual air pressure,
and release the throttle and/or turn
the switch to its off position before
leaving the work area.
Store the tool when it is idle out of e.
reach of children and other untrained persons. A tool is dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain the tool with care. f. Keep a
cutting tool sharp and clean. A properly maintained tool, with sharp cutting edges reduces the risk of binding
and is easier to control.
Check for misalignment or bind-g.
ing of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other condition that
affects the tool’s operation. If dam-
aged, 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.
Use only the lubricants supplied c.
with the tool or specied by the
manufacturer.
Air source
a. Never connect to an air
source that is capable of
exceeding 200 psi. Over
pressurizing the tool may
cause bursting, abnormal
operation, breakage of the tool or
serious injury to persons. Use only
clean, dry, regulated compressed air
at the rated pressure or within the
rated pressure range as marked on
the tool. 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.
Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide, b.
combustible gases or any bottled
gas as an air source for the tool.
Such gases are capable of explosion
and serious injury to persons.
SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS.
Use only accessories that are h.
identied by the manufacturer for
the specic tool model. Use of an
accessory not intended for use with
the specic tool model, increases the
risk of injury to persons.
