For Your Safety
and
safety tips:
dangerous
conditions,
• Wear work gloves and eye
protection. Pneumatic tools
can raise chips, dust and
other abraded particles at
high speed, what may result
in severe eye injuries. Com-
pressed air is dangerous. The
air flow may cause harm to
sensitive parts of the body
like eyes, ears etc. Dust and
objects being raised by the
air flow may cause injuries.
• Use ear protection. Long
exhibition to the working
noise of a pneumatic tool
may result in a permanent
hearing loss.
• Wear face or dust mask.
Breathing in the steam of
some materials like adhesi-
ves and tar that contain dan-
gerous chemicals can cause
serious harms.
• Wear proper-fitting protec-
tive clothing. Tools with
rotating parts or tools that
power
other
tools,
sockets etc., can get caught
in the hair, clothing, jewellery
or other loose objects what may result in
severe injuries. Never wear too large clothing
and/or clothing with bands or loops which
may get caught in the rotating parts of the
tool. During the work take off jewellery, wat-
ches, identification tags, bracelets, neckla-
ces etc. that could get caught in the tool.
Never touch the moving parts of a tool. Long
hair should be covered or tied together.
• Keep children away from pneumatic
tools. Unattended tools or tools that are
connected to the compressed air supply
may be used by non-authorized persons and
could injure them or other persons.
• Use perfect sockets only. Low-quality,
unsuitable or defective tools like sockets etc.
may loosen during operation and can be
flung throughout the work area what may
result in very severe injuries. Only use
sockets that are approved for the speed of
the tool. Do not use sockets that have fallen
down, been shocked or damaged during
operation.
