Safety Instructions For Pneumatic Tools

10. USE PROPER AIR HOSE for the

tool. Make sure your air hose is in good condition and is long enough to reach your work without stretching.

11. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neck ties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear a protective hair covering to contain long hair.

12. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES.

Also use a face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.

13. WEAR APPROVED HEARING PROTECTION. Air escaping from

pneumatic tools can exceed safe exposure limits and may cause hearing damage with prolonged exposure.

14. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical. It is safer than using your hand and frees both hands to operate tool.

15. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE.

Keep tools lubricated and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL FIRING. Do not

carry tool with hand on trigger and always disconnect from air when not in use.

17. DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing, changing accessories, or moving to another location.

18. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing/balance at all times.

19. USE THE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult owner’s

manual for recommended acces sories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury.

ing and alignment of parts, broken parts, part mounting, loose bolts, and any other conditions that may affect machine operation. Repair or

replace damaged parts.

21. NEVER LEAVE UNATTENDED TOOL CONNECTED TO AIR.

Disconnect the air hose and do not leave tool until it is relieved of any built up pressure.

22. NEVER ALLOW UNTRAINED USERS TO USE THIS TOOL WHILE UNSUPERVISED.

23. IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF THE INTENDED OPERATION, STOP USING TOOL. Seek formal training

or research books or magazines that specialize in pneumatic tools.

Additional Safety Instructions for Nailers

1. HAND AND FOOT INJURIES: Do

not place your hands or feet near the nail point of entry. A nail can deflect and tear through the surface of the workpiece, puncturing your hand or foot.

2. COMPRESSED AIR RATING: Do not connect the nailer to compressed air that exceeds 120 PSI.

3. ACTUATING MECHANISM: Be careful not to bump the actuating mechanism when carrying or holding the tool while connected to air. If bumped, the tool may accidentally shoot in a dangerous direction.

4. SAFE HANDLING: Never point the nailer at others! Carry the nailer only by the handle, never by any other part. Do not carry the nailer by the air hose.

5. HOSE USAGE: Make sure your air hose is designed for the tool in use, is in good condition, and is long enough to reach your work without stretching. However, an overly long air hose in the work area may be a tripping hazard.

6. HAMMER SAFETY: DO NOT use a hammer with a damaged handle or a loose head. Make sure nobody is standing close enough to be hit when you swing the hammer.

7. NAILING: Avoid driving one nail on top of another. The nail may deflect and cause injury.

8. AIR SUPPLY: Disconnect the air supply before installing nails, clearing a jam, moving to another work area, performing maintenance, or when the tool is not in use. A nailer connected to air may fire accidentally, causing serious personal injury. DO NOT use a check valve or any other fitting that allows air to remain in the tool.

9. COMBUSTIBLE GASES: Never connect the nailer to pressurized oxygen or other combustible gases as a power source. Only use regulated compressed air.

10. CLEANING: Never use gasoline or other flammable liquids to clean the nailer; vapors in the nailer will ignite by a spark and cause it to explode.

11. TOOL SERVICE: If the nailer is leaking air, damaged, or not working correctly, DO NOT use before repairing.

12. OPERATING QUESTIONS: If you are not sure about the intended operation, stop using the nailer. Seek formal training or research books or magazines that specialize in pneumatic tools.
