SAFETY GUIDELINES

DANGER!

Potential hazard that will result in serious injury or loss of life.

• Keep children away from the work area. Do not allow children to handle
power tools.

• Do not use this tool in the presence of flammable liquids or gases. Sparks
that are created during use may ignite gases.

• Do not point the tool towards yourself or other people, even if the tool has
stopped. Keep hands, feet, and all other parts of the body clear from work
area.

• Always ensure that the workpiece is firmly secured leaving both hands free
to control the tool.

• Always ensure that the tool has stopped before putting it down after use, in
the interest of safety and to prevent possible damage to the tool/user.

• Always wear an appropriate face mask or respiratory equipment while
cutting.

• Do not use oxygen or any other combustible or bottled
gas to power air-powered tools. Failure to observe this
warning can cause explosion and serious personal injury
or death. Use only the compressed air to power air­powered tools. Use a minimum of 25' (7.6 m) of hose to
connect the tool to the compressor. Failure to comply will
result in serious injury or loss of life.

• Risk of electric shock: Do not expose a compressor to rain. Store it indoors.

Disconnect the compressor from the power source before servicing.
Compressor must be grounded. Do not use grounding adaptors.

• Risk of personal injury: Do not direct compressed air from the air hose

toward the user or other personnel.

• Risk of inhallation: Never directly inhale the air produced by the compressor.

• Risk of bursting: Do not adjust the pressure switch or safety valve for any

reason. They have been preset at the factory for this compressor’s maximum
pressure. Tampering with the pressure switch or the safety valve may cause
personal injury or property damage.

• Risk of burns: The pump and the manifold generate high temperatures. In
order to avoid burns or other injuries, do not touch the pump, the manifold,
or the transfer tube while the compressor is running. Allow the parts to cool
down before handling or servicing. Keep children away from the compressor
at all times.

• Risk of bursting: Make sure the regulator is adjusted so
that the compressor outlet pressure is set lower than the
maximum operating pressure of the tool. Before starting
the compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve to make
sure the valve moves freely. Drain water from tank after
each use. Do not weld or repair tank. Relieve all pressure
in the hose before removing or attaching accessories.

WARNING!

Potential hazard that could result in serious injury or loss of life.

• Do not allow unskilled or untrained individuals to operate the Air-powered
Shear.

• Always ensure that the accessories such as knives, etc., are specially
designed/rated for use with the tool. Also ensure they are secured and

correctly fastened before connecting the tool to the air supply.

• Use only lightweight coil type air hoses to connect the tool to compressor
coupling. Do not fit quick change couplings onto the machine as can cause
the coupling to fall.

• Locate the compressor in a well-ventilated area for cooling, at a minimum of
12" (31 cm) away from the nearest wall.

• Protect the air hose and the power cord from damage and puncture. Inspect
them for weak or worn spots every week, and replace them if necessary.

• Always wear hearing protection when using the air compressor. Failure to do
so may result in hearing loss.

• Do not carry the compressor while it is running.

• Do not operate the compressor if it is not in a stable position.

• Do not operate the compressor on a rooftop or in an elevated position that
could allow the unit to fall or be tipped over.

• Always replace a damaged gauge before operating the unit again.
