Use eye and ear protection. Always wear ANSI-approved impact safety goggles when
using air tools. Wear a full face shield if you are producing metal filings or wood chips.
Wear a NIOSH-approved dust mask or respirator when working around metal, wood,
and chemical dusts and mists.

Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance.
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords

that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician. Do
not use any air tool if its switch does not turn On and Off properly.
