WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY
This tool is NOT electrically insulated.
Contact with a “live” wire will also
make exposed metal parts of the tool
“live” and can result in electrical
shock, electrocution injury or death.
Never use air tools where they may
come in contact with energized
electrical wiring.
Avoid body contact with grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
refrigerators and ranges. There is
an increased risk of electrical shock
if your body is grounded.
Whenever possible, it is
recommended that electrically
non-conductive clothing and non-skid
footwear be worn when using tools.
Air tool accessories such as impact
sockets or drills that come into
contact with hidden electrical wiring
could cause electrocution or death.
Thoroughly investigate workpieces
and work areas for possible hidden
wiring before performing work.
An unattended tool could be
activated by unauthorized/untrained
persons, leading to their injury or
injury to others.
Remove air hose when the tool is
not in use and store tool in a secure
location away from reach of children
and untrained users.
Air tools can propel fasteners,
loose/broken accessories or other
objects throughout the work area.
Never run the tool off the workpiece.
Maintain awareness of work area
safety at all times. Always be aware
of other people around the work area
to ensure safety.
Use only parts, fasteners and
accessories recommended by the
manufacturer.
Keep work area clean, free of clutter
and well lit. Do not allow children to
operate any tool, and keep children
away from work areas.
