Safety Instructions for Pneumatic Tools
For Your Own Safety Read Instruction Manual
Before Operating This Equipment
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazard-
ous conditions. This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which
are intended to convey the level of importance of the safety messages. The
progression of symbols is described below. Remember that safety messages by
themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident
prevention measures.
1. READ THROUGH THE ENTIRE
MANUAL BEFORE STARTING
MACHINERY. Machinery presents
serious injury hazards to untrained
users.
2. ALWAYS USE ANSI APPROVED
SAFETY GLASSES WHEN
OPERATING MACHINERY. Everyday
eyeglasses only have impact resistant
lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
3. ALWAYS WEAR AN ANSI
APPROVED RESPIRATOR WHEN
OPERATING MACHINERY THAT
PRODUCES DUST. Wood dust is a
carcinogen and can cause cancer and
severe respiratory illnesses.
