Stinger CS150B - Air Supply and Connections; Operating the Tool Safely

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS
• Use only clean, regulated compressed air as a power source for this tool. Do not use bottle
gases, combustible gases or oxygen as a power source for the tool as the tool may explode.
• Do not use air supply pressures that exceed 110 PSI (7.7 bar). Exceeding the recommended
maximum operating air pressure will greatly increase tool wear.
• The air supply must be capable of maintaining the operating air pressure of the tool. Pressure
drops in the air supply can reduce tool wear.
• Use a pressure regulator and gauge to allow visual inspection of the air pressure being
delivered to the tool.
• Use air hoses that have rated pressures of up to 150% of the maximum pressure that can be
generated by the power source. The supply hose should contain fittings that will provide quick
disconnecting from the male plug on the tool.
• Use quick connect fittings that allow the tool to be unhooked from the air supply quickly and
easily.
• Do not use fittings that will not allow the tool to exhaust when the air supply is disconnected.

• Never inspect, maintain, repair, adjust, clear a jam or store the tool with the air connected.
• Never use the tool in proximity of flammable gases or liquids, as some tools will create sparks
that can be an ignition source for a fire or explosion.
• Always inspect the safety device for damage and proper operation prior to operation.
• Never assume the tool is empty of fasteners.
• Never point the tool toward yourself or any other persons.
• Never cycle the tool unless it is in contact with the work-piece.
