Make sure air hose is free of snags and ob-
structions. Do not attach an air hose or tool
to your body. Entangled or snarled hoses can
cause a loss of balance or footing in addition to
unintentional tool operation. Attach the hose to
the structure to reduce the risk of loss of balance
if the hose shifts.
Do not abuse the air hose. Protect all hoses
from kinks, restrictions, solvents or sharp ob-
jects. Keep air hose away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Replace damaged hoses
