EYE PROTECTION which conforms to ANSI specifications and provides protection against
flying particles both from the FRONT and SIDE should ALWAYS be worn by the operator and
others in the work area when connecting to air supply, loading, operating or servicing this

and face shields alone do not provide adequate protection.

platform can be moved up and down to two nail settings. To change setting pull up on the post and twist
to the correct step. Fig.B
