General safety rules.

Workplace

Keep work area clean and tidy. Cluttered or
dark work areas invite accidents.
Do not operate the pneumatic tool in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of flam-
mable liquids, gases or dusts. Pneumatic
tools create sparks which can ignite the dust
or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while
operating the pneumatic tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control over the pneumatic
tool.
Safety when handling compressed air
Check the compressed-air supply regularly.
Protect the hose from kinks, contraction,
heat, and sharp edges. Firmly tighten the hose
clamps. Have damaged hoses and couplings
repaired immediately. In case of malfunctions
to the air supply, the compressed-air hose can
be thrown about and lead to injury. Raised
dust or chips may cause serious eye injury.

Personal safety

Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use
common sense when operating a pneumatic
tool. Do not use the pneumatic tool while tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention while
operating a pneumatic tool may result in per-
sonal injury.
Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for appropri-
ate conditions will reduce personal injury.
Prevent unintentional starting. Make sure
that the switch is in the "OFF" position before
connecting the pneumatic tool to the com-
pressed-air supply. When your finger is on
the switch while carrying the pneumatic tool
or when connecting the pneumatic tool to the
compressed-air supply while it is switched on,
accidents can occur.
Remove any adjustment tools or wrenches
before switching on the pneumatic tool. An
adjustment tool or wrench left attached to a
rotating part of a pneumatic tool may result in
personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better con-
trol of the pneumatic tool in unexpected sit-
uations.
Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
