tion while operating pneumatic tools may result in serious personal injury.

b. Use safety equipment. Always wear ANSI-approved safety impact goggles and NIOSH-approved dust mask/respirator. Safety equipment such as non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the Trigger (6A) is in the off-position before connecting to an air supply. Carrying pneumatic tools with your finger on the Trigger or connecting pneumatic tools that have the Trig- ger on invites accidents.

d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the pneumatic tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the pneumatic tool may result in personal injury.

e. Do not overreach. Keep proper foot- ing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the pneu- matic tool in unexpected situations.

f.Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from mov- ing parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

4.Pneumatic tool use and care

a.Do not force the pneumatic tool. Use the correct pneumatic tool for your application. The correct pneumatic tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b.Do not use the pneumatic tool if the Trigger (6A) does not turn it on and off. Any pneumatic tool that cannot

be controlled with the Trigger is dangerous and must be repaired.

c. Disconnect the air hose from the pneumatic tool and release any remaining air pressure before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing pneumatic tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the pneumatic tool accidentally.

d. Store idle pneumatic tools out of the reach of children and do not allow people unfamiliar with the pneumatic tool or these instructions to operate the pneumatic tool. Pneumatic tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e. Maintain pneumatic tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect

the pneumatic tool’s operation. If damaged, have the pneumatic tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained pneumatic tools.

f.Use the pneumatic tool and its accessories in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of pneumatic tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the pneumatic tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5.Service

a.Have your pneumatic tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the pneumatic tool is maintained.
