Do not use the tool as a hammer.
Always carry the tool by the handle. Never carry the tool by the air hose.
Do not alter or modify this tool from the original design or function without approval from

Do not continue to use a tool that leaks air or does not function properly. Notify your nearest

MAINTAINING THE PNEUMATIC TOOL
When working on air tools, note the warnings in this manual and use extra care evaluating
problem tools.
Pusher spring (constant force spring). Caution must be used when working with the
spring assembly. The spring is wrapped around, but not attached to, a roller. If the spring
is extended beyond its length, the end will come off the roller and the spring will roll up
with a snap, with a chance of pinching your hand. Also the edges of the spring are very
thin and could cut. Care must also be taken to insure no permanent kinks are put in the
spring as this will reduce the springs force.
