To help you recognize this informa- tion, we use the symbols below. Please read the manual and pay attention to these sections.

indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,may result in minor or moderate injury

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known (to the State of California) to cause

cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some example of these chemicals are:

●

●

●

lead from lead-based paints

crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products

arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber

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, always wear MSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator when using such tools.

When using air tools, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of personal injury.

HAZARD

RISK OF EYE OR HEAD INJURY

WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT

•Air powered equipment and power tools are capable of propelling materials such as fasteners, metal chips, saw dust, and other debris at high speed, which could result in serious eye injury.

•Compressed air can be hazardous. The air stream can cause injury to soft tissue areas such as eyes, ears, etc. Particles or objects propelled by the stream can cause injury.

•Tool attachments can become loose or break and fly apart propelling particles at the operator and others in the work area.

•Always wear ANSI approved Z87.1 safety glasses with side shields.

•Never leave operating tool unattended. Disconnect air hose when tool is not in use.

•For additional protection use an approved face shield in addition to safety glasses.

•Make sure that any attachments are securely assembled.

HAZARD

RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION

WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT

•Abrasive tools such as sanders and grinders, rotating tools such as drills, and impact tools such as nailers, staplers, wrenches, hammers, and reciprocating saws are capable of generating sparks which could result in ignition of flammable materials.

•Exceeding the maximum pressure rating of tools or accessories could cause an explosion resulting in seri- ous injury.

•Never operate tools near flammable substances such as gasoline, naptha, cleaning solvents, etc.

•Work in a clean, well ventilated area free of combustible materials.

•Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide or other bottled gases as a power source for air tools.

•Use compressed air regulated to a maximum pressure at or below the rated pressure of any attachments.

•Never connect to an air source that is capable of exceeding 200 psi.

•Always verify prior to using the tool that the air source has been adjusted to the rated air pressure range.
