12. Never force the tool. Excessive pressure could break the tool,
resulting in damage to your workpiece or serious personal injury.
Excessive pressure is the cause if your tool runs smoothly under no
load, but roughly under load.
13. Keep hands and fingers away from the work area. Any part of the
body contacting the tool’s working parts could result in an injury.
14. Never touch the tool accessory or workpiece during or immediately
after use. They may be hot and could inflict a burn injury.
15. Do not place the tool down until the tool’s accessory has stopped
moving. The accessory may catch the surface of work material and
wrench itself free, causing injury to the user or others in the work area.
16. Never hold the drive, socket, drive extension or accessories during
impacting. Doing so increases the risk of cuts, burns or vibration
injuries.
17. Use a torque bar or forearm brace to absorb reaction torque above
10-Nm to protect against a twist injury.
AIR TOOL PRECAUTIONS
1. Use only clean and dry compressed air as a power source.
Contaminated or moist air will gradually damage the tool.
2. Install an in-line shutoff valve or regulator to allow immediate control
over the air supply in an emergency, even if a hose is ruptured.
3. Discontinue tool use if it does not work properly or air is leaking.
Tag or mark the tool as ‘defective’ or ‘out of service’ until repaired.
4. Check the manufacturer’s maximum pressure rating for air tools
and accessories. Compressor outlet pressure must be regulated to
never exceed the maximum pressure rating of the tool (see
Specifications). Exceeding the maximum PSI rating can create a
bursting hazard, causing injury and property damage.
4.1 Do not exceed maximum working air pressure at 90 PSI
(6.2 bar).
5. Attach all accessories properly to the tool before connecting the air
supply. A loose accessory may detach or break during operation.
6. Never use oxygen, combustible gas or any other bottled gas as a
power source. Any power source other than an air compressor
could cause an explosion and serious personal injury.
