INITIAL TOOL SET UP/ASSEMBLY
Note:Air source
Never connect
to an air source that is capable of exceeding 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.
• Avoid accidental injury.
Keep hands and fingers safely away from the oscillating Scraper, Blades, Sanding Pad and
Sandpaper when operating the tool.
• Before each use make sure
the Retainer(2) and Cap screw(1) are tightly secured for safe and efficient operation.
• Attach all accessories properly to the tool before connecting the air supply
. A loose accessory may detach or break
during operation.
• Obey the manual for the air compressor used to power this tool.
• Install an in-line shutoff valve
to allow immediate control over the air supply in an emergercy, even if a hose
is ruptured.
• Replace bent or damaged blades.
• Use this tool with both hands only.
Using tools with only one hand can result in loss of control.
• Do not lay the tool
down until it has come to a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the surface and pull the tool
out of your control.
Caution: This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may cause temporary or
pemanent physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders. To reduce the risk of vibration-related
injury:
•
Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended period should first be examined by a doctor and then have
regular medical check-ups to ensure medical problems are not being caused or worsened from use. Pregnant women or
people who have impaired blood circulation to the hand, past hand injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes, or
Raynaud’s Disease should not use this tool. If you feel any symptoms related to vibration (such as tingling, numbness,
and white or blue fingers), seek medical advice as soon as possible.
• Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the blood supply to the hands and fingers, increasing the risk of
vibration-related injury.
• Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration effects on the user.
• Use tools with the lowest vibration when there is a choice.
• Include vibration-free periods each day of work.
• Grip tool as tightly as possible (while still keeping safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.
•
To reduce vibration, maintain tool as explained in this manual. If abnormal vibration occurs, stop immediately.
Warning
Maximum speed at stated maximum air pressure.
Excess air pressure is hazardous and may cause the tool to exceed stated maximum speed.
