1. Work area safety
a.
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
d.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
e.
Check the maximum pressure rating of any tools or accessories that you
intend using with the compressor.
The output pressure of the air from the
compressor must be regulated so that it never exceeds the rated pressure of
the tool or accessory.
f.
Always wear high safety goggles or glasses when using the air tools.
Never
point the nozzle of an accessory towards any part of your body or towards
another person.
g.
Drain the moisture from the tank daily.
It will help prevent corrosion.
h. Use safety equipment including safety goggles and ear protection, the tool
operator and all persons in the working area must wear safety goggles and ear
protection.
i. Air tools should not be used in a potentially explosive environment.
j.
The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.
Any use other than
those mentioned in this Manual will be considered a case of misuse. The user
and not the manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or injury resulting from
such cases of misuse.
GENERAL AIR TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow
the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power
tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
WARNING!
In the event that an air line is cut or broken, the air supply
must be turned off at the compressor. A broken air line which is not
supported is extremely dangerous and can whip around very quickly, both
with the capability of striking people, and blowing foreign particles into
the air.
Do not attempt to catch the air line but immediately keep bystanders well
clear and turn off the air supply to the hose, turn off the compressor at the
On / Off button, and then remove the hose from the compressor.
