PERS ONAL SAFETY 

 

Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the tool. Do not 
use the tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.  A moment 
of inattention  while  operating the tool may result in serious personal injury.  

 

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing 
and gloves away from moving  parts. Loos e clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving 
parts. Air  vents on the tool often cover moving  parts and should be avoided.  

 

Wear the proper  personal protective equipment when  necessary. Use ANS I  Z87.1 compliant 
safety goggles (not safety glasses) with side shields, or when n eeded, a  face shield. Use a dust 
mask in dusty work conditions. Also use non-skid safety shoes, hardhat, gloves, dust collection 
systems, and hearing protection when appropriate. This applies to all persons in the work area.   

 

Do not overreach. Keep proper  footing and balance at all times. 

 

Do not use the tool when tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.  

 

Remove keys or wrenches before connecting the tool to an air supply, power supply, or turning on 
the tool. A wrench or key that is left attached to a  rotating part of the tool may cause personal 
injury.  

 

Secure the work with clamps or a  vise instead of your hand  when practical. This safety precaution 
allows for proper tool operation using both  hands. 

 

 

AERATOR US E AND CARE 

 

Do not force the aerator. Aerat ors do a  better and safer job when used in the manner for which 
they are designed. Plan your work and use the correct aerator for the job.  

 

Check for damaged  parts before each use. Carefully check that the aerator will operate properly 
and perform its intended function. Replace damaged or worn parts immediately. Never  operate 
the aerator with a damaged  part.  

 

Store the aerator when it is not in use. Store it in a dry, secure place out of the  reac h of children. 
Inspect the aerator  for good working condition prior to storage and before re -use.  

 

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer  for use with your aerator. 
Accessories that may be suitable for one aerator may create a risk of injury when  used wit h 
another aerator.   

 

Do not leave the aerator or tow  vehicle  running unattended.  

 

Inspect the aerator damage or excessive wear before each use. If you find damage, do  not use 
the aerator.
