Inspect the tool's air hose for cracks, fraying or other faults before each use. Discontinue
use if the air hose is damaged or hissing is heard from the air hose or connectors, while
operating the tool. Replace the defective component/air hose.
Do not allow people, mobile equipment, or vehicles to pass over the unprotected
air hose. Position the air hose away from high traffic areas, in a reinforced conduit or
place planks on both sides of the air hose to create an enclosed area.
Prevent damage to the air hose by observing the following:
a. Never carry the tool by the air hose.
b. Keep the air hose away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Check the maximum pressure rating for air tools and accessories. Compressor outlet
pressure must be regulated to never exceed the maximum pressure rating of the tool.
