GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Read and understand all
instructions. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/
or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Work area
1 Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
2 Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
Personal safety
3 Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when operating a
tool. Do not use while tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating tools
may result in serious personal injury.
4 Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep
your hair, clothing, and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery, or long
hair can get caught in moving parts.
5 Avoid accidental starts. Before
connecting the air supply make sure that
the tool is switched off. Carrying tools with
your finger on the switch or plugging in tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.
6 Remove adjusting keys or tools before
turning the tool on. A wrench or key that is left
attached to a rotating part of the tool may result
in personal injury.
7 Do not overreach. Stand on both feet
and keep proper footing and balance at all
times. Proper footing and balance enables better
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
8 Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for
appropriate conditions.
Tool use and care
9 Do not abuse the hose. Never carry or
pull the tool by the hose. Keep hose away
from heat, sharp edges or moving parts.
Replace damaged hoses immediately.
Damaged hoses increase the risk of accidents.
10 Use clamps or other suitable means to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body is unstable and may lead to
loss of control.
11 Do not force tool. Use the correct tool
for your application. The correct tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it is
designed.
12 Do not use tool if switch does not turn
it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
13 Disconnect the compressed-air hose
from the tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing the tool. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
14 Store idle tools out of reach of children
and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
15 Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting
tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
16 Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the tools
operation. If damaged, have the tool
serviced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.
17 Use only accessories that are
recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one
tool may become hazardous when used on
another tool.
Service
18 Tool service may be performed only by
qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified personnel
could result in a risk of injury.
19 When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the Maintenance section of this manual. Use
of unauthorized parts or failure to follow the
Maintenance instructions may create a risk of
injury.
