f) Maintain pneumatic tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition
that may affect the operation of the pneu-
matic tool. If damaged, have the pneumatic
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained pneumatic tools.
g) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-
erly maintained tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
h) Use the pneumatic tool, accessories, and
tool bits, etc., in accordance with these
instructions and in the manner intended for
the particular type of pneumatic tool, taking
into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the pneu-
matic tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your pneumatic tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the pneumatic tool is maintained.

Specific Safety Rules

Avoid contact with a live wire. The
DANGER
pneumatic tool is not insulated and con-
tact with a live wire may result in electric shock.
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility
lines are hidden in the work area or call the
local utility company for assistance. Contact
with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock.
Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Pene-
trating a water line causes property damage or may
cause an electric shock.
Disconnect all fuses or circuit breakers that
feed the work area before you drill, cut, or
attach anything in this area. This eliminates the
danger of electric shock.
Use only flawless tool bits that are not worn.
When a tool bit in use breaks, e.g., an impact
socket, splinters can be drawn off at high speed and
cause injury or lead to damage.
When you install the tool bit, take care that
the tool bit is seated securely on the tool bit
holder. If the tool bit is not joined securely to the
tool bit holder, it may become loose and it may no
longer be controllable.
Keep your hand away from rotating tool bits.
The hand can be injured by the rotating tool bit.
Place the tool bit onto the nut/screw only
when the screwdriver is switched off. Rotating
tool bits can slide off the nut/screw.

Be careful when long screws are screwed in.
Depending on the type of screw and the tool
bit used, there is a danger of slipping. Long
screws are often difficult to control and the danger
exists that the tool bit may slip off the fastener head
and cause injury.
Support the nutrunner with, for example, a
reaction bar when you are working at high
torque. Work at high torques may result in damag-
ing reaction torques, which can be reduced by
using a support device.
Be careful in confined work spaces. Keep your
hands away from the reaction bar. Reaction
torques may result in injuries due to pinching or
crushing.
Pay attention to the direction of rotation that
is set before switching on the pneumatic tool.
For example, when a screw is to be loosened and
the direction of rotation is set so that the screw is
tightened, this can lead to a strong torque reaction
of the pneumatic tool.
Do not run the pneumatic tool while carrying
it at your side. A rotating bit could become entan-
gled with clothing and injury may result.
If you wish to operate the pneumatic tool in a
suspension or clamping device, make sure
that the pneumatic tool is first mounted in the
device before you connect it to the air supply.
In this way you avoid starting the tool accidentally.
Regularly check the condition of the hanging
hook and the hook of the suspension device.
Some dust created by power
WARNING
sanding, sawing, grinding, drill-
ing, and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects,
or other reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber.
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 those dust masks that are specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.
