Be careful when using pneumatic tools as the tool could
•
become cold, affecting grip and control.
Gloves can become entangled with the rotating drive,
•
causing severed or broken fingers.
Rotating drive sockets and drive extensions can easily
•
entangle rubber-coated or metal-reinforced gloves.
Hold the tool correctly; be ready to counteract normal or
•
sudden movements and have both hands available.
Maintain a balanced body position and secure footing.
•
Do not use in confined spaces and beware of crushing
•
hands between tool and workpiece, especially
when unscrewing.
Use only accessories recommended by MAC Tools.

GETTING STARTED
•
Always operate , inspect and maintain this tool in accordan
ce with all regulations (local , state , federal and country)
that may apply to hand-held / hand-operated pneumatic
tools
•
Be sure all hoses and fittings are the correct size and are
tightly secured
•
Always use clean, dry air at 90 psig maxi mum air pressure.
Dust , corrosive fumes and /or excessive moisture can ruin
the motor of an air tool
•
The use of a hose whip is recommended. A coupler
connected directly to the air inlet increases tool bulk and
decreases tool maneuverabi Iity
•
For maximum performance, the coupler on the wall should
be the next size larger than the coupler used on the tool.
The coupler closest to the tool should not be less than the
proper air supply hose size
