b.

Do not operate the tool in explo-

sive atmospheres, such as in the

presence of flammable liquids,

gases, or dust. The tool is able to

create sparks resulting in the ignition

of the dust or fumes.

c. Keep bystanders, children, and

visitors away while operating the

tool. Distractions are able to result in

the loss of control of the tool.

Personal safety

a. Stay alert. Watch what you are do-

ing and use common sense when

operating the tool. Do not use the

tool while tired or under the influ-

ence of drugs, alcohol, or medica-

tion. A moment of inattention while

operating the tool increases the risk

of injury to persons.

b.

Avoid unintentional starting. Be

sure the switch is off before con-

necting to the air supply. Do not

carry the tool with your finger on the

switch or connect the tool to the air

supply with the switch on.

c.

Do not overreach. Keep proper

footing and balance at all times.

Proper footing and balance enables

better control of the tool in unexpect-

ed situations.

d.

Use safety equipment. A

dust mask, non-skid safety

shoes and a hard hat must

be used for the applicable

conditions. Wear heavy-duty work

gloves during use.

e.

Always wear eye protec-

tion. Wear ANSI-ap-

proved safety goggles.

Tool use and care

a. Use clamps or another practical

way to secure and support the

workpiece to a stable platform.

Holding the work by hand or against

the body is unstable and is able to

lead to loss of control.

b.

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.

c.

Do not use the tool if the switch

does not turn the tool on or off.

Any tool that cannot be controlled

with the switch is dangerous and

must be repaired.

d.

Disconnect the tool from the air

source before making any adjust-

ments, changing accessories, or

storing the tool. Such preventive

safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the tool unintentionally. Turn

off and detach the air supply, safely

discharge any residual air pressure,

and release the throttle and/or turn

the switch to its off position before

leaving the work area.

e. Store the tool when it is idle out of

reach of children and other un-

trained persons. A tool is dangerous

in the hands of untrained users.

f.

Check for misalignment or bind-

ing of moving parts, breakage of

parts, and any other condition that

affects the tool’s operation. If dam-

aged, have the tool serviced before

using. Many accidents are caused

by poorly maintained tools. There is a

risk of bursting if the tool is damaged.
