WARNING – When using tools, basic precautions

should always be followed, including the following:

Page 2 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. SKU 69814

a. 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.

b. 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. 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.

c. Store the tool when it is idle out of reach

of children and other untrained persons.

A tool is dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

d. 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.

e. Use only accessories that are identied by the

manufacturer for the specic tool model. Use of

an accessory not intended for use with the specic
tool model, increases the risk of injury to persons.
