WARNING
Read and understand instructions before use.
Always wear eye/face and hand protection.
IMPROPER OPERATION OR MAINTENANCE OF THIS
PRODUCT COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY AND
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
RISK OF EYE OR HEAD INJURY
WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
Air powered equipment and power tools
are capable of propelling materials such as
fasteners, metal chips, sawdust and other
debris at high speed which could result in
serious eye injury.
Always wear approved safety glasses with
side shields.
Disconnect air hose when tool is not in
use.
Compressed air can be hazardous.
The air system can cause injury to soft
tissue areas such as eyes and ear. Particles
or objects propelled by the air stream can
cause injury.
For additional protection use an approved
face shield in addition to safety glasses.
Tool attachments can become loose or
break and fly apart, propelling articles at
the operator and others in the work area.
Make sure that any attachments are securely assembled.
RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION
WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
Abrasive tools such as sanders and grinders, rotating tools such as drills and impact
tools such as nailers, staplers, wrenches,
hammers and reciprocating saws are
capable of generating sparks which could
result in ignition of flammable materials.
Never operate tools near flammable substances such as petrol, naphtha, cleaning
solvents etc.
Work in a clean, well-ventilated area free
of combustible materials.
Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide or
other bottled gases as a power source for
air tools.
Exceeding the maximum pressure rating
of tools or accessories could cause an
explosion resulting in serious injury.
Use compressed air regulated to a maximum pressure at or below the rated pressure of any attachments.
Never connect to an air source that is
capable of exceeding 200 psi.
Always verify prior to using the tools that
the air source has been adjusted to the
rated air pressure range.

RISK OF LOSS OF HEARING
WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
Long term exposure to noise produced
from the operation of air tools can lead to
permanent hearing loss.
Always wear hearing protection.
INHALATION HAZARD
WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
Abrasive tools such as grinders, sanders
and cut-off tools generate dust and abrasive materials which can be harmful to the
lungs and respiratory system.
Always wear a properly fitting facemask or
respirator when using such tools.
Some materials such as adhesives and tar
contain chemicals whose vapours could
cause serious injury with exposure.
Always work in a clean, dry, well-ventilated
area.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
Using air tools to attach electrical wiring
can result in electrocution or death.
Never use nail/staplers to attach electrical
wiring while energized
This tool is not provided with an insulated
gripping surface. Contact with a “live”
wire will also make exposed metal parts of
the tool “live” and can result in electrocution.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is grounded.
Fasteners coming in contact with hidden
electrical wiring could cause electrocution
or death.
Thoroughly investigate the work piece for
possible hidden wiring before performing
work.
RISK OF CUT OR BURNS
WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
Tools that cut, shear, drill, staple, punch &
chisel are capable of causing serious injury.
Keep the working part of the tool away
from hands and body.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
RISK OF INJURY
WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
A tool left unattended or with the air hose
attached can be activated by unauthorized
persons leading to injury.
Remove air hose when tool is not in use
and store tool in secure location away
from reach of children and untrained users.
Air tools can inadvertently propel fasteners or other materials in work area.
Use only parts, fasteners and accessories
recommended by SGS Engineering.
Keep work area clean and free of clutter.
Keep children and others away from tool
while it is in operation.
Keep work area well lit.
A wrench or a key that is left attached to a
rotating part of the tool increases the risk
of personal injury.
Remove adjusting keys and wrenches
before turning the tool on.
Using inflator nozzles for duster applications can cause serious injury.
DO NOT use inflator nozzles for duster
applications.
Air tools can become activated by accident during maintenance or tool changes.
Remove air hose to lubricate or add grinding attachments, sanding discs, drills, etc.
to the tool.
Never carry the tool by the hose.
Avoid unintentional starting. Don’t carry
the tool with a finger on the trigger.
Only an authorised service representative
should perform repair servicing.
Air tools can cause the work piece to
move upon contact, leading to injury.
Use clamps or other devices to prevent
movement.
Loss of control of the tool can lead to
injury to self or others.
Never use tool while using drugs or
alcohol. Don’t over-reach. Keep proper
footing and balance. Keep handles dry,
clean and free from oil/grease. Stay alert.
Watch what you are doing. Use common
sense. Do not operate the tool when you
are tired.
