nonconductive clothes and nonskid footwear are recommended when working. Wear restrictive hair covering to
contain long hair.

11. Do not exceed maximum air pressure of 160 PSI.
12. Avoid unintentional starting. Do not carry any air tool with your finger on the trigger, whether it is plugged in or not.
13. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate any tool when you are tired.
14. Check for damaged parts. Before using Filter/Regulator, any part that appears damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment and binding
