PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Use face and ear protection.
Protect your hands with suitable gloves. Wear a full face shield. Wear an ANSI
approved dust mask or respirator when working around metal, wood and chemical dusts and mists. Wear
ANSI approved earplugs.
2. Do not over reach; keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
3. Dress properly, wear protective equipment.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught
in moving parts. Tie back long hair. Protective, electrically non-conductive clothes and non-skid footwear are
recommended when working.
4. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use your common sense.
Do not operate any machine or tool
when you are tired, under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medications.
5. Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the work piece to a stable platform.
Holding
the work piece by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
TOOL USE AND CARE
1. Use the right tool for the job.
Do not attempt to force a small tool or attachment to do the work of a larger
industrial tool. The tool will perform better and more safely at the task for which it was intended. Do not
modify this tool or use for a purpose for which it was not designed.
2. Securely hold this tool using both hands.
Using tools with only one hand can result in loss of control.
3. Maintain tools with care.
Keep tools clean, sharp and in good condition for a better and safer performance.
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool fittings, alignment and hoses
periodically and, if damaged, have them repaired by an authorized technician or replaced. The handles must
be kept clean, dry and free from oil and grease at all times. A properly maintained tool reduces the risk of
binding and is easier to control. Sharp tools are safer than tools which have become dull because you do not
have to apply excessive amounts of force to make your cuts. Applying excessive force can lead to slips and
damage to your work or personal injury.
4. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches.
Check that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool
or machine before connecting it. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool increases
the risk of personal injury.
5. Avoid unintentional starts.
Be sure that the ignition switch is in neutral or OFF position when not in use and
before connecting it to any power source. Do not carry the tool with fingers near or on the switch.
6. Only use the lubricants supplied with the tool or specified by the manufacturer.
Other lubricants may
not be suitable and may damage the tool or even make the tool explode.
7. When not in use for an extended period, apply a thin coat of lubricant to the steel parts to avoid rust.
8. Maintain label and name plate on the tool.
These carry important information. If unreadable or missing,
contact Princess Auto for a replacement.
