Air Supply and Connection Hazards
Air under pressure can cause severe injury.
Always shut off air supply, drain hose of air pressure
and disconnect tool from air supply when not in use,
before changing accessories or when making repairs.
Never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
Whipping hoses can cause serious injury. Always check
for damaged or loose hoses and fittings.
Do not use quick disconnect couplings at tool. See
instructions for correct set-up.
Whenever universal twist couplings are used, lock pins
must be installed.
Do not exceed maximum air pressure of 90 psi/6.2 bar
or as stated on tool nameplate.
Projectile Hazards
Always wear impact-resistant eye and face protection
when involved with or near the operation, repair or
maintenance of the tool or changing accessories on the
tool.
Be sure all others in the area are wearing impact-
resistant eye and face protection.
Even small projectiles can injure eyes and cause
blindness.
Operating Hazards
Always shut off air supply, relieve hose of air pressure
and disconnect tool from air supply when changing
accessories.
Cutting with these tools will create sharp edges. Wear
gloves to protect hands.
Avoid direct contact with accessory and work surface
during and after work.
Cutting edges and saw blades can become hot during
use. Do not touch.
DO NOT DISCARD - GIVE TO USER
To reduce risk of injury, everyone using, installing, repairing,
maintaining, changing accessories on, or working near this tool must
read and understand these instructions before performing any such
task.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Never force the tool to cut faster or through heavier
gauge material than rated capacity.
To prevent damage to the tool and accessory,
accessory must be held firmly against work surface
while cutting.
Workplace Hazards
Slip/Trip/Fall is a major cause of serious injury or death.
Be aware of excess hose left on the walking or work
surface.
High sound levels can cause permanent hearing loss.
Use hearing protection as recommended by your
employer or OSHA regulation (see 29 CFR part 1910).
Maintain a balanced body position and secure footing.
Repetitive work motions, awkward positions and
exposure to vibration can be harmful to hands and
arms. If numbness, tingling, pain or whitening of the
skin occurs, stop using tool and consult a physician.
Avoid inhaling dust or handling debris from the work
process which can be harmful to your health. Use dust
extraction and wear respiratory protective equipment
when working with materials which produce airborne
particles.
Proceed with care in unfamiliar surroundings. Be aware
of potential hazards created by your work activity.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
- Lead from lead based paints
- Crystalline silica bricks and cement and other
masonry products
- And Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
rubber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as
dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
