USING THE TOOL
(Continued)
•
Keep hands, loose clothing, long hair and jewelry away
from working end of tool.
•
Power tools can vibrate in use. Vibration, repetitive
motions or uncomfortable positions may be harmful to
your hands and arms. Stop using any tool if discomfort,
tingling feeling or pain occurs. Seek medical advice
before resuming use.
•
Keep body stance balanced and firm. Do not overreach
when operating this tool. Anticipate and be alert for
sudden changes in motion, reaction torques, or forces
during start up and operation.
•
Tool and/or accessories may briefly continue their
motion after throttle is released.
•
To avoid accidental starting - ensure tool is in “off”
position before applying air pressure, avoid throttle
when carrying, and release throttle with loss of air.
•
Ensure work pieces are secure. Use clamps or vises to
hold work piece whenever possible.
•
Do not carry or drag the tool by the hose.
•
Do not use power tools when tired, or under the
influence of medication, drugs, or alcohol.
•
Never use a damaged or malfunctioning tool or
accessory.
•
Do not modify the tool, safety devices, or accessories.
•
Do not use this tool for purposes other than those
recommended.
•
Use accessories recommended by Ingersoll-Rand.
•
Note the position of the reversing mechanism before
operating the tool so as to be aware of the direction of
rotation when operating the throttle.
•
Use only impact sockets and accessories. Do not use
hand (chrome) sockets or accessories.
•
Impact Wrenches are not torque wrenches. Connections
requiring specific torque must be checked with a torque
meter after fitting with an impact wrench.
•
Periodically check the drive end of the tool to make
certain that the socket retainer functions correctly, and
that sockets and drive ends are not excessively worn
which may allow the socket to come off when rotating.

The use of other than genuine Ingersoll-Rand replacement parts may result in safety hazards, decreased tool
