• Appropriate controls to reduce
the risk from noise hazards may
include actions such as damping
materials to prevent work pieces
from “ringing.”
• If the tool has a silencer, always
ensure it is in place and in good
working order when the tool is
being operated.
Operating Hazards
• Operators and maintenance
personnel must be physically
able to handle the bulk, weight
and power of the tool.
• Keep body stance balanced
and firm. Do not overreach when
operating this tool. Anticipate
and be alert for sudden changes
in motion or forces during start
up and operation. The operator
should change posture during
extended tasks, which can help
avoid discomfort and fatigue.
• Use of the tool can expose
the operator’s hands to hazards,
including crushing, impacts,
cuts, abrasions and heat. Wear
suitable gloves to protect hands.
However, ensure that the gloves
do not restrict your ability to
release throttle mechanism.
• To avoid accidental starting –
ensure the tool is in the “off”
position before applying air
pressure, avoid the throttle when
carrying, and release the throttle
with loss of air.
• Do not lubricate tool with
flammable or volatile liquids
such as kerosene, diesel or jet
fuel. Use only recommended
lubricants.
• Do not carry or drag the tool by
the hose.
• Tool and/or accessories may
briefly continue their motion after
throttle is released.
Accessory Hazards
• Use only sizes and types of
accessories and consumables
that are recommended by
the tool manufacturer; do not
use other types or sizes of
accessories or consumables.
