operation of this tool may differ from others and that you may need
to follow different rules. Always consult the manual to insure you are
following the correct safety instructions to avoid personal injury.
Tool Usage Safety
Do not force the tool to perform a squeeze-off. The tool will operate safer and better if

that might affect the operation of the tool. Accidents may be caused by improperly
maintained tools.
Always use the Timberline Tr250 with the grounding rod inserted in the ground when
working with natural gas, or any other fl ammable substance.
Use only the accessories, slap-on jaws, or extension handles that correspond to your
product. Accessories specifi c for one tool may be hazardous if used on a different
tool.
Failure to use the Tr250 in the manner specifi ed in this manual may result in injury
and/or permanent damage to the tool.
This tool complies with ASTM F1563-01.
Always make sure to use the slap-on jaw that corresponds to the
pipe size and SDR or wall thickness of the pipe to be squeezed-off.
Tool Service Safety
Tool service must only be performed by qualifi ed repair personnel.
Service or maintenance performed by unqualifi ed personnel could
result in a risk of injury.
