Tools that are used with a suspension device can fall if they are not securely fastened to the device.
If the tool is used with a balancer or other suspension device, be sure the tool is firmly attached to the device. Wherever possible,
secure workpiece with clamps, a vise, etc. to make it rigid so it does not move during the work operation. Keep good balance at all
times. Do not stretch or overreach.
Falling tools can cause injury.
Try to match the tool to the work operation.
Do not use a tool that is too light or heavy for the work operation. If in doubt, seek advice. Try to make sure that the work area is
clear to enable the work task to be performed safely.
If practical and possible, try to clear unnecessary obstructions before starting work.
Using excessive force on a tool makes it hard to control.
Do not force tool.
Hard to control tool can cause injury.
Taping or wiring the throttle valve in the "ON" position will prevent the tool from shutting off if the tool should jam or malfunction or if
anything unexpected happens.
Do not wire or tape down the "On-Off" valve of any power tool. The throttle/lever, etc. must always be free to return to the 'Off'
position when released.
Tools that are prevented from shutting off can cause injury.
Poorly maintained and lubricated tools can fail unexpectedly.
Keep tool properly lubricated and in good repair at all times. Use only Sioux Air Motor Oil No. 288. See the tool's information sheet
to find out what other greases and oils to use. Do not drop the end of the hose on the floor where it will pick up dirt and transport
it into the tool. See information sheet for any additional maintenance requirements. Take care against entanglement of the moving
parts of the tool with clothing, hair, ties, cleaning rags, rings, jewelry, watches, bracelets, etc. This could cause the body or parts of
the body to be drawn towards and in contact with the moving parts of the tool and could be very dangerous.
Unexpected tool failures can cause injury.
Air hoses can come loose from power tools and whip.
Inspect and do not use tools with loose or damaged air hoses or fittings. Before using the tool, make sure that a shut off device
has been fitted to the air supply line and the position is known and easily accessible so that the air supply to the tool can be shut
off in an emergency.
Whipping air hoses can cause injury.
Air hoses that are not oil resistant or are not rated for the working pressure can burst.
Make sure that all air hoses are oil resistant and rated for the working pressure.
Air hoses that burst can cause injury.
Tools not operated at proper air pressure can operate erratically.

devices where fitted, i.e., wheel guards, safety trigger, speed governors, etc.
Misused tools can cause injury.
Tools with the actuator left in the "ON" position when an unexpected air pressure loss occurs can start unexpectedly when the air
pressure is restored.
Release the actuator if an unexpected loss of air pressure occurs.
Unexpected tool starts can cause injury.
Tools with the actuator left in the "on" position can cause unexpected starts when the tool is connected to the air supply.
Be sure actuator is off before hooking up air.
