POWER TOOL PRECAUTIONS
1. Do not use any power tool with a malfunctioning power switch or
control. A power tool that fails to respond to the controls is dangerous
and can cause an injury. A qualified technician must repair and verify
the power tool is operating correctly, before it can be used.
2. Disconnect the power source before installing or servicing the tool.
3. 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.
4. Keep hands and fingers away from the work area. Any part of body
contacting the tool’s working parts could cause an injury.
5. Only use accessories that are specifically designed for use with the
tool. Ensure the accessory is tightly installed.
6. Only use an accessory that exceeds the No Load Speed rating (see
Specifications).
7. Before using the tool on a workpiece, test the tool by running it at the
highest no load speed for at least 30 seconds in a safe position. Stop
immediately if there is any abnormal vibration or wobbling. Check the
tool to determine the cause.
8. Never touch the tool accessory or workpiece during or immediately after
use. They may be hot and could inflict a burn injury.
9. Never use a tool with a cracked or worn tool accessory. Change the
tool accessory before using it.
10. 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.
AIR HOSE PRECAUTIONS
1. Inspect the tool's air hose for cracks, fraying or other faults before
each use. Discontinue use if the air hose is damaged or hissing is heard
from the air hose or connectors. Replace the defective air hose.
2. Do not allow people, mobile equipment or vehicles to pass over the
unprotected air hose. Position the air hose away from high traffic
areas, in a reinforced conduit or place planks on both sides of the air
hose to create a protective trench.
