Important Safety Instructions
INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING
TO A RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK, OR INJURY TO
PERSONS
When using tools,
basic precautions
should always be followed, including
the following:
GENERAL
a. To reduce the risks of
electric shock, fire, and
injury to persons, read all
the instructions before
using the tool.
e. Use safety equipment. A dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes and a hard
hat must be used for the applicable
conditions.
f. Always wear eye
protection.
g. Always wear hearing
protection when using
the tool. Prolonged exposure to
high intensity noise is able to cause
hearing loss.
Risk of
Electric
Shock. This tool is not
provided with an insulated
gripping surface. Contact
with a "live" wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live"
and a risk of electric shock to the
operator.
h. Avoid body contact with
grounded surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators. There is
an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is grounded.
i. Explore the workpiece to avoid
contact with hidden wiring.
Thoroughly investigate the
workpiece for possible hidden
wiring before performing work.
Contact with live wiring will shock
the operator.
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.
WORK AREA
a. Keep the work area clean and well
lighted. Cluttered benches and dark
areas increase the risks of electric
shock, fire, and injury to persons.
b. Do not operate the tool
in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases,
or dust. The tool is able to create
sparks resulting in the ignition of
the dust or fumes.
c. Keep bystanders, children, and
visitors away while operating the
tool. Distractions are able to result in
the loss of control of the tool.
PERSONAL SAFETY
a. Stay alert. Watch what you are
doing and use common sense
when operating the tool. Do not
use the tool while tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol,
or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating the
tool increases the risk of injury to
persons.
b. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
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.
c. Avoid unintentional starting.
Be sure the switch is off before
connecting to the air supply. Do not
carry the tool with your finger on
the switch or connect the tool to the
air supply with the switch on.
d. Do not overreach. Keep
proper footing and
balance at all times.
Proper footing and
balance enables better control of
the tool in unexpected situations.
