- Use appropriate hearing protection.
- Operate and maintain the tool as recommended in these
instructions, to prevent an unnecessary increase in noise
levels.
- If the tool has a silencer, always ensure it is in place and in
good working order when the tool is being operated.
8. VIBRATION HAZARDS
- Information to conduct a risk assessment of these hazards
and implementation of appropriate controls is essential.
- Exposure to vibration can cause disabling damage to the
nerves and blood supply of the hands and arms.
- Wear warm clothing when working in cold conditions, keep
your hands warm and dry.
- If you experience numbness, tingling, pain or whitening of
the skin in your fingers or hands, seek medical advice from
a qualified occupational health professional regarding overall
activities.
- Operate and maintain the tool as recommended in these
instructions, to prevent an unnecessary increase in vibration
levels.
- Hold the tool with a light, but safe, grip because the risk from
vibration is generally greater when the grip force is higher.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
PNEUMATIC TOOLS
- Compressed air can cause severe injury.
- Always shut off air supply, and disconnect tool from air
supply when not in use.
- Always disconnect the tool from the compressed air supply
before changing accessories, making adjustments and/
or repairs, when moving away from an operating area to a

- Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always check for
damaged or loose hoses or fittings.
- Never carry a pneumatic tool by its hose.
- Never drag a pneumatic tool by its hose.
- When using pneumatic tools, do not exceed the maximum
operating pressure Psmax.
- Pneumatic tools should only be powered by compressed
air at the lowest pressure required for the work process to
reduce noise and vibration, and minimize wear.
- Using oxygen or combustible gases for operating pneumatic
tools creates a fire and explosion hazard.
- Be careful when using pneumatic tools as the tool could
become cold, affecting grip and control.
The regulated pressure must not exceed the maximum air
pressure, Psmax, marked on tool.
