Specific Safety instructions

1. The warnings and precautions discussed in this

manual cannot cover all possible conditions and

situations that may occur. It must be understood

by the operator that common sense and caution

are factors which cannot be built into this

product, but must be supplied by the operator.

2. WARNING: The brass components of

this product contain lead, a chemical

known to the State of California to cause

birth defects (or other reproductive harm).

(California Health & Safety code § 25249.5, et seq.)

3. Only use with accessories rated to handle the

forces exerted by this tool during operation.

Other accessories not designed for the forces

generated may break and forcefully launch pieces.

4. Attach all accessories properly to the tool before

connecting the air supply. A loose accessory

may detach or break during operation.

5. Obey the manual for the air compressor

used to power this tool.

6. Install an in-line shutoff valve to allow

immediate control over the air supply in an

emergency, even if a hose is ruptured.

7. Use this tool with both hands only. Using tools

with only one hand can result in loss of control.

8. Do not lay the tool down until it has come to

a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the

surface and pull the tool out of your control.

Vibration precautions

This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term

exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent

physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and

shoulders. To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:

1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an

extended period should first be examined by a

doctor and then have regular medical check-ups to

ensure medical problems are not being caused or

worsened from use. Pregnant women or people who

have impaired blood circulation to the hand, past

hand injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes,

or Raynaud's Disease should not use this tool.

If you feel any symptoms related to vibration (such

as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers),

seek medical advice as soon as possible.

2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces

the blood supply to the hands and fingers,

increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.

3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the

vibration effects on the user.

4. Use tools with the lowest vibration

when there is a choice.

5. Include vibration-free periods each day of work.

6. Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping

safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.

7. To reduce vibration, maintain

tool as explained in this manual.

If abnormal vibration occurs, stop immediately.
