IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
both hands and you are positioned at your workpiece or area. Before using the Air
Hammer, know what is directly underneath the work area or workpiece. The Air Ham-
mer can quickly penetrate material. If working directly on the ground, make sure you
are not directly above shallow cables, lines, or pipes. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry that could become caught by moving parts, causing injury. Keep your limbs
and body clear of the tool. If a chisel or bit breaks o, the tool tends to surge forward
suddenly. Operate tool a safe distance from yourself and others in the work area. Make
sure the immediate area is clear of other people or animals. Spectators must stay at
a safe distance. Never point the tool or the air hose (not included) at anyone. Keep
proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over or across running machines,
hoses, etc.
7. Do not operate any tool if under the inuence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning labels
on prescriptions to determine if your judgment or reexes are impaired while taking
drugs. If there is any doubt, do not operate any tool.
8. Be sure air is in OFF position when connecting tool to air supply.
9. Use only those accessories that are designed for use with tools. For example, with
impact wrenches do not use ordinary sockets. Use impact sockets for all air tools.
10. Be sure to disconnect tool from air supply before changing accessories, performing
service on tool and when not in use.
11. Follow air source manufacturers' directions for connection of regulators, lters, and
other accessories to air source. Do not install quick couplers directly on tool as they
put unnecessary strain on the air inlet threads possibly causing them to wear out
prematurely. Instead, install them on a short length of air hose attached to the tool.
12. Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts; any broken parts
or mounting xtures; and any other condition that may aect proper operation. Any
part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualied technician.
13. Maintenance. For your safety, maintenance should be performed regularly by a quali-
ed technician using original PERFORMANCE TOOLS® replacement parts. Failure
to do so can lead to accidents for the operator. Use of any other parts will void the
warranty. Only use accessories intended for use with this tool. Approved accessories
are available from Performance Tool®. Use only accessories that are recommended
by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may
become hazardous when used on another tool.
