PERSONAL SAFETY (continued)

Manual background RISK OF HEARING LOSS. Always wear ANSI S3.19 approved ear protection when using the tool. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise is able to cause hearing loss.

Manual background RISK OF EYE INJURY. Always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved safety goggles when using an air tool. Air powered equipment and power tools are capable of propelling materials such as metal chips, sawdust, and other debris at high speed which could result in serious eye injury.

Manual background RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Explore the workpiece to avoid contact with hidden wiring. Thoroughly investigate the workpiece for possible hidden wiring before performing work. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.

Manual background RISK OF INJURY. Avoid prolonged exposure to vibration. Air powered tools can vibrate during use and repetitive motion or vibration may cause injury. Avoid prolonged use of the tool or stop using the tool if discomfort occurs.

TOOL USE AND CARE SAFETY

Manual background RISK OF INJURY. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the work- piece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against the body is unstable and is able to lead to loss of control.

RISK OF INJURY. 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.

Manual background RISK OF INJURY. Do not use the tool if the trigger does not turn the tool on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the trigger is dangerous and must be repaired.

RISK OF INJURY. Disconnect the tool from the air source before making any adjust- ments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool unintentionally.

RISK OF INJURY. 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.

Manual background RISK OF BURSTING AND/OR INJURY. 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. Do not operate the tool with the protective guarding removed or damaged. Replace the tool or have it repaired by an authorized service center. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools or air hose. There is a risk of bursting if the tool is damaged.

Manual background RISK OF BURSTING AND/OR INJURY. Check for damaged air hose. Keep the air hose away from heat, oil, and sharp edges. Inspect the air hose periodically and replace it if it becomes worn or damaged.

RISK OF BURSTING AND/OR INJURY. Use compressed air regulated to a maximum pressure at or below the rated pressure of any attachments. Never operate the tool over 90 PSI. Exceeding the maximum pressure rating of tools or accessories could cause an explosion resulting in serious injury.

Manual background RISK OF INJURY. Use only accessories that are designed for the specific tool. Use of an

accessory not intended for use with the specific tool, increases the risk of injury to persons.

TOOL SERVICE SAFETY

Manual background RISK OF INJURY. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.

RISK OF INJURY. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Use only authorized parts.

Use only the lubricants supplied with the tool or specified by Coleman Powermate.

AIR SOURCE SAFETY

Manual background RISK OF BURSTING AND/OR INJURY. Never connect to an air source that is greater than 90 psi. Over pressurizing the tool is able to result in bursting, abnormal operation, breakage of the tool, or serious injury to persons. Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air at the rated pressure or within the rated pressure range as marked on the tool. Always ver- ify prior to using the tool that the air source has been adjusted to the rated air pressure or within the rated air pressure range.

Manual background RISK OF EXPLOSION AND INJURY. Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible gases or any bottled gas as an air source for the tool. Such gases are capable of explo- sion and serious injury to persons.
