ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR AIR-POWERED MULTI-PURPOSE TOOL
!
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SERVICE
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Use only authorized
parts.
Use only the lubricants supplied with the tool and specified by the manufacturer.
AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS
The air supply connection must not hold pressure when air supply is
disconnected. If an incorrect fitting is used, the tool can remain charged with air
after disconnecting and thus will be able to work even after the air line is
disconnected, possibly causing injury.
Do not use any type of reactive gases, including, but not limited to, oxygen carbon
dioxideand combustible gases, as a power source. Use filtered, lubricated,
regulated compressed air only. Use of a reactive gas instead of compressed air
may cause the tool to explode which will cause death or serious personal injury.
Use only a pressure-regulated compressed air source to limit the air pressure
supplied to the tool. The regulated pressure must not exceed 90 PSI. If the
regulator fails, the pressure delivered to the tool must not exceed 150 PSI. The
tool could explode which will cause death or serious personal injury.
Always disconnect air supply from tool:
a) before making adjustments.
b) when servicing the tool.
c) when clearing a jam.
d) when tool is not in use.
e) when moving to a different work area, as accidental actuation may occur,
causing injury.
Disconnect the tool from the air source before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool.
Maintain the tool with care. Keep a cutting tool sharp and clean. A properly
maintained tool with sharp cutting edges reduces the risk of binding and is easier
to control.
NOTE: AIR SOURCE
Never connect to an air source that may exceed 90 PSI. Over-pressurizing the tool
may cause bursting, abnormal operation, breakage of the tool or serious injury to
persons. Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air at the rated pressure or
within the rated pressure range as marked on the tool. Always verify prior to using
the tool that the air source has been adjusted to the rated air pressure or within the
rated air-pressure range.
Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible gases or any bottled gas as an
air source for the tool. Such gases are capable of explosion and serious injury to
persons.
Only use with accessories rated to handle the forces exerted by this tool during
operation. Other accessories not designed for the forces generated may break
and forcefully launch pieces.
