• Potentially explosive atmospheres can be caused by aerosols and fumes
resulting from spraying
• Always use dust extraction or suppression systems which are suitable for
the material being processed
Repetitive Motions Hazards
• When using this tool to perform work-related activities, the operator can
experience discomfort in the hands, arms, shoulders, neck or other parts
of the body
• While using this tool, the operator should adopt a comfortable posture
whilst maintaining secure footing and avoiding awkward or off-balance
postures. The operator should change posture during extended tasks; this
can help avoid discomfort and fatigue
• If the operator experiences symptoms such as persistent or recurring
discomfort, pain, throbbing, aching, tingling, numbness, burning
sensations or stiffness, these warning signs should not be ignored.
The operator should inform the employer and consult a qualified health
professional
Accessory Hazards
• Disconnect the tool from the energy supply before filling or changing
accessories
• Use only sizes and types of accessories and consumables that are
recommended by the manufacturer of this tool; do not use other types or
sizes of accessories or consumables
Workplace Hazards
• Slips, trips and falls are major causes of workplace injury. Be aware
of slippery surfaces caused by use of the tool and also of trip hazards
caused by the air line or hydraulic hose
• This tool is not intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and
is not insulated against contact with electric power
Dust and Fume Hazards
• Dust and fumes generated when using this tool can cause ill health
(for example cancer, birth defects, asthma and/or dermatitis); risk
assessment and implementation of appropriate controls for these
hazards are essential
• Risk assessment should include dust created by the use of the tool and
the potential for disturbing existing dust
• Operate and maintain this tool as recommended in these instructions, to
minimise dust or fume emissions
• Direct the exhaust so as to minimise disturbance of dust in a dust-filled
environment
• Where dust or fumes are created, the priority should be to control them
at the point of emission
• All integral features or accessories for the collection, extraction or
suppression of airborne dust or fumes should be correctly used and
maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions
• Select, maintain and replace the consumable/inserted tool as
recommended in the instruction handbook, to prevent an unnecessary
increase in dust or fumes
• Use respiratory protection in accordance with employer's instructions
and as required by occupational health and safety regulations
Noise Hazards
• Exposure to high noise levels can cause permanent, disabling hearing
loss and other problems, such as tinnitus (ringing, buzzing, whistling or
humming in the ears). Therefore, risk assessment and implementation of
appropriate controls for these hazards are essential
• Appropriate controls to reduce the risk can include actions such as
damping materials to prevent workpieces from ‘ringing’
• Use hearing protection in accordance with employer's instructions and as
required by occupational health and safety regulations
• Operate and maintain this tool as recommended in the instruction
handbook, to prevent an unnecessary increase in the noise level
• Select, maintain and replace the consumable/inserted tool as
recommended in the instruction handbook, to prevent an unnecessary
increase in noise
• If the tool has a silencer, always ensure it is in place and in good working
order when the tool is being operated
Vibration
The European Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive 2002/44/EC was
introduced to control the exposure of vibration at work. The Directive
enables users of tools to make informed decisions on the amount of time
spent working. Those who regularly operate high vibration equipment over a
sustained period of time are at a higher risk of health problems. ISO 28927-
3 measures vibration in three directions which is known as tri-axial or
vector sum measurement. When operating high vibration equipment, ensure
not to exceed exposure levels. For more details on The Vibration Directive
2002/44/EC please visit The European Agency for Safety and Health at work
