WORK AREA

a. Keep the work area clean and well
lighted. Cluttered benches and dark
areas increase the risks of electric
shock, fire, and injury to persons.
b. Do not operate the tool
in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases,
or dust. The tool is able to create
sparks resulting in the ignition of
the dust or fumes.
c. Keep bystanders, children, and
visitors away while operating the
tool. Distractions are able to result in
the loss of control of the tool.

PERSONAL SAFETY

a. Stay alert. Watch what you are
doing and use common sense
when operating the tool. Do not
use the tool while tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol,
or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating the
tool increases the risk of injury to
persons.
b. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Keep hair, clothing, and
gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long
hair increases the risk of injury to
persons as a result of being caught
in moving parts.
c. Avoid unintentional starting.
Be sure the switch is off before
connecting to the air supply. Do not
carry the tool with your finger on
the switch or connect the tool to the
air supply with the switch on.
d. Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
e. Use safety equipment. A dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes and a hard
hat must be used for the applicable
conditions.

protection when using
the tool. Prolonged
exposure to high intensity
noise is able to cause
hearing loss.
h. Do not attach the hose or tool to
your body. Attach the hose to the
structure to reduce the risk of loss of
balance if the hose shifts.

firmly balanced
position when using or handling the
tool.
Avoid long extended
periods of work
with the tool. Stop using the tool if you
feel pain in hands or arms.
TOOL USE AND CARE

to secure and support the workpiece
to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against the body is
unstable and is able to lead to loss
of control.
b. 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.
c. Do not use the tool if the switch
does not turn the tool on or off. Any
tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
d.
Disconnect the
tool from the air
source before making adjustments,
doing tool maintenance, clearing
jams, leaving work area,loading,
Such
or unloading the tool.
precautionary measures reduce the
risk of injury to persons.
e. 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.
f. Maintain the tool with care. Keep
a cutting tool sharp and clean. A
properly maintained tool, with sharp
cutting edges reduces the risk of
binding and is easier to control.
g. 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.
