Risk of contamination from hazardous dust.
• Wear an approved dust mask or respirator when
using power tools that create dust.
• Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
• Risk assessment should include both dust
created by the tool and the potential for
disturbing already existing dust.
• Operate and maintain the tool as recommended
in the instructions handbook to minimize dust and
fume emissions.
• Direct the exhaust so as to minimize disturbance
of dust in a dust-lled environment.
• Where dust or fumes are created, the priority
shall be to control them at the point of emission.
• All integral features or accessories for the
collection, extraction or suppression of airborne
dust and fumes should be correctly used and
maintained in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
• Select, maintain and replace the consumable/
inserted tool as recommended in the instructions
handbook to prevent unnecessary increase in
dust or fumes.
• Use respiratory protection in accordance with
employer’s instructions and as required by
occupational health and safety regulations.
• Working in certain materials creates emission of
dust and fumes which can cause a potentially
explosive environment.
Inhaling hazardous dust can cause injury.
Sudden changes in motion or position can occur
while using the tool.
• Anticipate and be alert for changes in motion
during start up and operation.
• Maintain a secure grip.
• Hold the tool correctly and have both hands ready to
counteract any sudden or unexpected movements.
• Always maintain a balanced stance with secure footing.
• Wear gloves to protect from cuts, abrasion and heat.
• Anticipate reaction force. Adjust your stance and
hold tool securely.
Sudden changes in motion or position can cause
injury.
Risk of entanglement.
• Keep body parts away from moving parts.
• Do not wear loose clothing and jewelry while
operating tool.
• Choking, scalping, and lacerations can occur if
loose clothing, jewelry or hair is not kept away

grease.
• Always shut off air supply and disconnect tool
from air supply when changing accessories.
Entanglement can cause injury.
Flammable vapors can explode.
• Do not use near ammable vapors or near a gas
line or gas tank.
• Some dust may be explosive.
• Direct tool exhaust air away from ames or hot
surfaces.
• Do not lubricate tools with ammable or volatile
liquids such as kerosene, diesel or jet fuel.
Explosion and flames can cause injury.
Lubricating oil is discharged with exhaust air.
• Operate tool in a well ventilated area.
• Avoid breathing exhaust air.
Breathing air with oil mist can cause injury.
Electricity can cause electric shock.
• Do not use on or near live electrical circuits.
• This tool is not insulated against electrical shock.
Electric shock can cause injury.
Work area can contain hazards.
• Slips, trips, and falls are major causes of
workplace injury. Always watch for slippery
surfaces caused by the tool and for trip hazards
associated with the air line.
• Always proceed with care in unfamiliar
environments. There could be hidden hazards
such as electricity lines or gas pipes.
• Keep work area clean and well lit.
• Stay alert and use common sense when operating
tool. Do not operate when fatigued, or under the
inuence of medication, drugs or alcohol.
• Before using the tool, make sure that a shutoff
device has been tted on the supply line and the
location is well-known and easily accessible so
that the air supply to the tool can be shut off in an
emergency.
• Never lay a tool down until the attachment has
stopped moving.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
• Do not allow bystanders to contact tool.
• Keep bystanders at a safe distance from the work
area.
• Wear appropriate protective apparel, users and
bystanders.
