tool. Distractions are able to result in
the loss of control of the tool.
Personal safety
Stay alert. Watch what you are do-a.
ing and use common sense when
operating the tool. Do not use the
tool while tired or under the inu-
ence of drugs, alcohol, or medica-
tion. A moment of inattention while
operating the tool increases the risk
of injury to persons.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose b.
clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Keep hair, clothing, and
gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair
increases the risk of injury to persons
as a result of being caught in moving
parts.
Avoid unintentional starting. Be c.
sure the Trigger (56) is off before
connecting to the air supply. Do not
carry the tool with your nger on the
Trigger or connect the tool to the air
supply with the Trigger on.
Remove adjusting keys and d.
wrenches before turning the tool
on. A wrench or a key that is left at-
tached to a rotating part of the tool
increases the risk of personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper e.
footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the tool in unexpect-
ed situations.
f. Use safety equipment. A
dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes and a hard hat must
be used for the applicable conditions.
Wear heavy-duty work gloves during

producing metal lings or wood chips.
g. Always wear eye protec-
tion. Wear ANSI-ap-
proved safety goggles with
side shields during use.
