CAUTION!
Safety Engineering Departments, etc., must consider any hazards
that may be associated with each specific application of this product
and provide adequate operator protection from inadvertent contact
with any moving components.
Some individuals are susceptible to disorders of the hands and arms
when exposed to vibration and/or tasks which involve repetitive work
motions. Those individuals predisposed to vasculatory or circulatory
problems may be particularly susceptible. Cumulative trauma disorders such as carpal tunnel syndrome and tendinitis can be caused
or aggravated by repetitious, forceful exertions of the hands and
arms. These disorders develop gradually over periods of weeks,
months, and years. Tasks should be performed in such a manner
that the wrists are maintained in a neutral position, which is not
flexed, hyperextended, or turned side to side. Stressful postures
should be avoided and can be controlled through tool selection and
work location.
WARNING
Keep fingers and hands away
from slots in the tool nose at
all times. Rapid spindle retraction occurs automatically
on most models after drilling
cycle and can be activated
manually even with the air
supply disconnected on some
models.
Due to the multitude and variety of tooling
applications, the User's Methods Engineering, Standard Tooling Engineering, and/or
drills are often
used with lubricant or cooling
systems which
must be properly
maintained to
avoid leakage.
Any tool operator should be aware of the following warning signs and
symptoms so that a problem can be addressed before it becomes a
debilitating injury. Any user suffering from prolonged symptoms of
tingling, numbness, blanching of fingers, clumsiness or weakened
grip, inability to hold objects, nocturnal pain in the hand, or any other
disorder of the shoulders, arms, wrists, or fingers should notify their
employer so that a review of what steps might be taken to prevent
further occurances. These steps might include but are not limited to,
repositioning the workpiece or redesigning the workstation, reassigning tool users to other jobs, rotating jobs, changing worker pace,
and/or changing the type of tool used so as to minimize stress on the
operator. Some tasks may require more than one type of tool to
obtain the optimum operator/ tool/ task relationship.
The following recommendations will help reduce or moderate the
effects of repetitive work motions. The operator of any drill should:
• Use a minimum hand grip force consistent with proper control and
safe operation
• Keep body and hands warm and dry
• Avoid anything that inhibits blood circulation
— Smoking Tobacco
— Cold Temperatures
— Certain Drugs

LUBRICATION
An automatic in-line filter-lubricator is recommended as it increases tool
life and keeps the tool in sustained operation. The in-line lubricator should
be regularly checked and filled with a good grade of 10W machine oil.
Proper adjustment of the in-line lubricator is performed by placing a sheet
of paper next to the exhaust ports and holding the throttle open approximately 30 seconds. The lubricator is properly set when a very light stain
of oil collects on the paper. Excessive amounts of oil should be avoided .
STORAGE
In the event that it becomes necessary to store the tool for an extended
period of time (overnight, weekend, etc.), it should receive a generous
amount of lubrication at that time and again when returned to service.
The tool should be stored in a clean and dry environment.
