Air Supply and Connection Hazards
Air under pressure can cause severe injury.
Always shut off air supply, drain hose of air pressure and
disconnect tool from air supply when not in use, before
changing accessories or when making repairs.
Never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
Whipping hoses can cause serious injury. Always check
for damaged or loose hoses and fittings.
Do not use quick disconnect couplings at tool. See
instructions for correct set-up.
Whenever universal twist couplings are used, lock pins
must be installed.
Do not exceed maximum air pressure of 90 psi/6.2 bar or
as stated on tool nameplate.
Entanglement Hazards
Keep away from rotating drive.
Do not wear jewelry or loose clothing.
Choking can occur if neckwear is not kept away from the
tool and accessories.
Scalping can occur if hair is not kept away from the tool
and accessories.
Avoid direct contact with accessories during use.
Use only proper accessories designed for use with
pneumatic screwdrivers, nutrunners, ratchets and pulse
tools.
Projectile Hazards
Always wear impact-resistant eye protection when
involved with or near the operation, repair or
maintenance of the tool or changing accessories on
the tool.
Be sure all others in the area are wearing impact-
resistant eye protection.
Even small projectiles can injure eyes and cause
blindness.
Do not use hand sockets as they can shatter. Use only
power or impact sockets in good condition.
Always use the simplest hook-up possible. Long, springy
extension bars and adapters absorb power and could

maintaining, changing accessories on, or working near this tool must
read and understand these instructions before performing any such
task.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

break. Use deep sockets where possible.
Never operate the tool off of the work. It may run too fast
and cause the accessory to be thrown off the tool.
Serious injury can result from over-torqued or under-
torqued fasteners, which can break, or loosen and
separate. Released assemblies can become projectiles.
Assemblies requiring a specific torque must be checked
using a torque meter.
Note: So-called "click" torque wrenches do not check for
potentially dangerous over-torque conditions.
Workplace Hazards
Slip/Trip/Fall is a major cause of serious injury or death.
Be aware of excess hose left on the walking or work
surface.
Maintain a balanced body position and secure footing.
High sound levels can cause permanent hearing loss.
Use hearing protection as recommended by your
employer or OSHA regulation (see 29 CFR part 1910).
Repetitive work motions, awkward positions and
exposure to vibration can be harmful to hands and arms.
If numbness, tingling, pain or whitening of the skin
occurs, stop using tool and consult a physician.
Always support the tool's handle securely, in the
direction opposite of the spindle rotation, to reduce the
effect of sudden torque reaction during final tightening
and initial loosening.
An additional support handle or absorption bar may be
needed to resist torque reaction. Absorption bars must
be positioned correctly to avoid injury.
Proceed with care in unfamiliar surroundings. Be aware
of potential hazards created by your work activity.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
- Lead from lead based paints
- Crystalline silica bricks and cement and other
masonry products
- And Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
rubber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work
with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that
are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
