CAUTION
!
Personal hearing protection is
recommended when operating
or working near this tool.
Safety Recommendations
For your safety and the safety of others, read and
understand the safety recommendations and operating
instructions before operating any tool.
Always wear protective equipment:
For additional information on eye protection and face
protection, refer to Federal OSHA Regulations, 29 Code
of Federal Regulations, Section 1910.133., Eye and
Face Protection, and American National Standards Insti-
tute, ANSI Z87.1, Occupational and Educational Eye and
Face Protection. Z87.1 is available from the American
National Standards Institute, Inc., 11 West 42nd Street
New York, NY. 10036.
Hearing protection is recommended in high noise areas
85 dBA or greater. The operation of other tools and
equipment in the area, reflective surfaces, process noises
and resonant structures can substantially contribute to,
and increase the noise level in the area. Excessive air
pressure above 90 PSIG or worn motor components can
also increase sound level emitted by tool. For additional
information on hearing protection, refer to Federal Regu-
lations, Section 1910.95, Occupational Noise Exposure,
and American National Standards Institute, ANSI S12.6,
Hearing Protectors.
Cleco tools are designed to operate on 90 psig (6.2 bar)
maximum air pressure. If the tool is properly sized and
applied, higher air pressure is unnecessary. Excessive
air pressure increases the loads and stresses on the tool
parts, sockets, and fasteners and may result in breakage.
Installation of a filter-regulator-lubricator in the air supply
line ahead of the tool is recommended.
Before the tool is connected to the air supply, check the
throttle for proper operation (i. e., throttle moves freely
and returns to closed position). Being careful not to
endanger adjacent personnel, clear the air hose of accu-
mulated dust and moisture. Before removing a tool from
service or changing sockets, make sure the air line is shut
off and drained of air. This will prevent the tool from
operating if the throttle is accidently engaged.
Some individuals
may be suscep-
tible to disorders
of the hands and
arms when per-
forming tasks
consisting of
highly repetitive
motions and/or exposure to extended vibration. Cumula-
tive trauma disorders such as carpal tunnel syndrome
and tendonitis may be caused or aggravated by repeti-
tious, forceful exertions of the hands and arms. Vibration
may contribute to a condition called Raynaud's Syn-
drome. These disorders develop gradually over periods
of weeks, months, and years. It is presently unknown to
what extent exposure to vibrations or repetitive motions
may contribute to the disorders. Hereditary factors,
vasculatory or circulatory problems, exposure to cold and
dampness, diet, smoking and work practices are thought
to contribute to the conditions.
Any tool operator should be aware of the following
warning signs and symptoms so that a problem can be
addressed before it becomes a debilitating injury. Any
tool operator should be aware of the following warning
signs and symptoms so that a problem can be addressed
before it becomes a debilitating injury. Any user suffering
prolonged symptoms of tingling, numbness, blanching of
fingers, clumsiness or weakened grip, nocturnal pain in
the hand, or any other disorder of the shoulders, arms,
wrists, or fingers is advised to consult a physician. If it is
WARNING
!
Impact resistant eye protection
must be worn while operating
or working near this tool.
Repetitive work motions and/or vibration
may cause injury to hands and arms.
Use minimum hand grip force consistent
with proper control and safe operation.
Keep body and hands warm and dry.
Avoid anything that inhibits blood circulation.
Avoid continuous vibration exposure.
Keep wrists straight.
