protection. Hammering and drilling
operations cause chips to fly. Flying particles
can cause permanent eye damage.
• Bits, sockets and tools get hot during
operation. Wear gloves when touching them.
• Do not operate this tool for long
periods of time. Vibration caused by
tool action may be harmful to your hands
and arms. Use gloves to provide extra
cushion and limit
exposure by taking frequent rest periods.
• Wear appropriate personal hearing
protection during use. Under some
conditions and duration of use, noise from
this product may contribute to hearing loss.
WARNING:
Impact wrenches are not
torque wrenches. Do not use this tool for
tightening fasteners to specified torques.
An independent, calibrated torque
measurement device such as a torque
wrench should be used when under
tightened or over tightened fasteners
can lead to the failure of the joint.
WARNING:
ALWAYS use safety
glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT
safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask
if drilling operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/
CPA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing
protection,
• NOSH/OSHA respiratory protection.
WARNING:
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to the state of California
to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and
cement and other masonry products,
and
• arsenic and chromium from
chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type
of work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area,
and work with approved safety equipment,
such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with
dust from power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities. Wear
protective clothing and wash
exposed areas with soap and water.
Allowing dust to get into your mouth,
eyes, or lay on the skin may promote
absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING:
generate and/or disperse dust, which
may cause serious and permanent
respiratory or other injury. Always use
NOSH/OSHA approved respiratory
protection appropriate for the dust
exposure. Direct particles away from face
and body.
