of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. The tool is able to create sparks resulting in
the ignition of the dust orfumes.
3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating the product.
Distractions are able to result in the loss of control of the tool.
Personal safety
1. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating
the product. Do not use the product while tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the tool increases
the risk of injury to persons.
2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep
hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving paris. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long
hair increases the risk of injury to persons as a result of being caught in moving parts.
3, Remove adjusting keys and wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a
key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool increase the risk of personal injury.
4, Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times, Proper footing
and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5. Use safety equipment. A dust mask, non-skid safety shoes and a hard hat must be used for
the applicable conditions.

Operation
Tool use and care
1. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece
to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against the body is unstable and to lead
to loss of control.
2. 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.
3. Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn the tool on or off, Any tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
4. Disconnect the tool from the air source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the tool, Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the tool unintentionally.
5. Store the tool when it is idle out of children and other untrained persons. A
tool is dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
6. Maintain the tool with care. Keep a cutting tool sharp and dean. A property maintained
too, with sharp cutting edges reduced the risk of binding and is easier to control.
7.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.
8 Use only accessories that are identified by the manufacturer for the specific
tool model. Use of an accessory not intended for use with the specific tool model, increases
the risk of injury to persons.

WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling and other construction activities contains chemi-
cals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth
birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
Lead from lead based paint
crystalline silica from bricks and cement
and other masonry products, and
arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated lumber.
Your risk from those exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work
with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that
are specifically designed to filter out microscopic par-
ticles.

Pre-Operation
Before the tool is connected to the air supply, clear the air
hose of accumulated dust and moisture by running air
freely through the air hose for 5-10 seconds. Before
removing a tool for service, make sure the air line is shut-
offat the compressor. This will prevent the tool from
operating if the throttle is accidently engaged.
Installation (See figure 1)
This tool is designed to operate at 90 psi. Lower pres-
sure (below 90 psi) will reduce performance of the tool
while higher air pressure (over 90 psi) raises the perfor-
mance of the tool beyond its rated capacity and could
cause serious damage to tool and user.
Always use clean dry air. Excessive moisture and dirt will
greatly reduce the life of any air motor. We recommend
the installation of an in-line filter-regulator-lubricator as
close to the tool as possible.
A 3/8" air hose is required up to a length of 8 ft. If more
length is required a 1/2" air hose should be used at the
compressor. Attach a 3/8" whip hose for the remaining
4 - 8 ft. for flexibility. Be sure all hoses and fittings are the
correct size and tightly secured before using air tool.

WARNING: BISCONNECTTOOL FROM AIR SUPPLY
BEFORE SERVICING OR CHANGING SOCKETS, This
ratchet is equipped with a lever throttle which allows the
operator to vary the speed. Direction control is located on
the back of the ratchet head. Initial tightening and loosen =
ing of fasteners should be done manually with ratchet
used as a hand tool. Fasteners may then be run on and
off with relative ease.
Keep socket firmly against work surface when running the
ratchet to avoid dislodging the socket from the anvil.
Excessive torque leverage above tool specifications will
result in premature gear wear.

Lubrication
An in-line filter-regulator=lubricator (fig 1) 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 air tool oil. Proper adjustment of
the in-line lubricator is performed by placing a sheet of
paper next to the tools exhaust ports and holding the
throttle open approximately 30 seconds. The lubricator is
properly set when a light stain of oil collects on the paper.
Excessive amounts of oil should be avoided.
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 through
the air inlet (fig 2). The tool should be run for
approximately 30 seconds to ensure oil has been evenly
distributed throughout the tool. The tool should be stored
in a clean and dry environment.
Recommended lubricants: Use air tool oil or any other
high grade turbine oil containing moisture absorbent, rust
inhibitors,metal wetting agents and an EP (extreme
pressure) additive. (See Fig. 2 for location/air inlet).
