SAFETY GUIDELINES

• Keep work area clean. Never operate the product near flammable substances like gasoline, naphtha,
cleaning solvents, etc. Work in a clean, well-ventilated area free of combustible materials. Cluttered
areas invite injuries.

• Ensure that there are no electrical cables, gas pipes, etc., which can cause a hazard if damaged
by use of the tool.

• Never connect to an air source that is capable of exceeding 200 PSI. Always verify prior to
using this tool that the air source has been adjusted to the rated air pressure range.

• Do not exceed maximum working pressure of 90 PSI for the tool. Over pressurizing the
tool may cause bursting, abnormal operation, breakage of the tool or serious injury to persons. Use
compressed air regulated to a maximum pressure at or below the rated pressure of any attachments to
this product.

• Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible gases or any other bottled gases as an air
source for the tool. Such gases are capable of explosion and serious injury to persons.

• Disconnect the tool from the air source before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the

tool unintentionally.

• Observe work area conditions. Don’t expose to rain. Keep work area well lighted.

• Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area. Do not let them handle

machines, tools, extension cords, or air hoses. Keep visitors a safe distance from the work area.

• Store idle equipment. When not in use, the tool must be stored in a dry location to inhibit rust.
Always lock up tools and keep out of reach of children.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery as they can be caught in moving parts.
Protective, electrically non-conductive clothes and non-skid footwear are recommended when working.
Wear restrictive hair covering to contain long hair.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times, which enables better control of the
tool in unexpected situations.

• Protect your eyes by wearing safety glasses or a face shield when using this tool. Ear protectors
should also be worn.

• Maintain the product with care. Inspect hose periodically and, if damaged, have it repaired by an
authorized technician.

• Install an in-line shutoff valve to allow immediate control over the air supply in an emergency, even
if a hose is ruptured.

• Use the right tool for the job. Do not attempt to force a small tool or attachment to do the work of a
larger industrial tool. There are certain applications for which this product was designed. Do not modify
this tool and do not use this tool for a purpose for which it was not intended.
