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 adjustments,
doing tool maintenance, clearing
jams, leaving work area,loading,
or unloading the tool. Such
precautionary measures reduce the
risk of injury to persons.
e. Store the tool when it is idle out
of reach of children and other
untrained persons. A tool is
dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
f. Maintain the tool with care. Keep
a cutting tool sharp and clean. A
properly maintained tool, with sharp
cutting edges reduces the risk of
binding and is easier to control.
g. Check for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts,
and any other condition that affects
the tool’s operation. If damaged,
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.

tool from the power
source when unattended,
performing any maintenance or repair,
clearing a jam, or moving the tool to a
new location. Do not load the tool with
