• 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.

• Tool attachments can become loose or break and fly

apart propelling particles at the operator and others in
the work area.

• 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.

• 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.

HAZARD

WHAT COULD HAPPEN

HOW TO PREVENT IT

RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION

• Exceeding the maximum pressure rating of tools or

accessories could cause an explosion resulting in seri-
ous injury.

• 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.

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.
