Air Tool Safety

Dangerous environment

• Ensure there is adequate clear space around the work area. Only use spraying

tools in a well-ventilated area or a specialist spray booth. Be aware that air

hoses can present a trip hazard; always lay hoses in a way that minimises

hazards.

Protect your eyes

• Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses.

Protect your hearing

• Always wear ear protection.

Protection from vibration

• Hand-held air tools may produce vibration and should not be used for long

periods without a break. Vibration can cause disease. Gloves may help to

maintain good blood circulation in the fingers.

Protective clothing

• Always wear appropriate protective equipment including but not limited to

overalls, gloves, facemask etc.

• It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that other persons in the vicinity of the

work area are also equipped with the appropriate protective equipment.

Use the correct air hose

• Use lightweight hose to connect the tool to the air compressor.
• Most air tools should be fitted with a coil hose; only use a straight hose with

spray guns.

• When spraying, ensure that the gun is connected to a clean, filtered air supply.

Always disconnect

• Ensure that your air tool has completely stopped functioning before putting

it down.

• Disconnect an air tool from the air supply before performing any servicing, or

changing any blades, discs, or other attachments.

• Ensure the air tool is switched OFF before connecting to air supply. Be aware

that air tools may hold residual pressure after use. Always bleed air pressure

from the tool after shutting off air supply.

Do not abuse the tool

• Do not overload the tool. Allowing the machine to work at its optimum speed is

more efficient and prolongs its service life.

• Do not increase air pressure above the recommended level; excessive pressure

leads to wear of moving parts, possible failure and may cause the tool casing

to split.

• Do not attempt to modify air tools. Any attempt to modify this air tool could

result in serious injury to you or others, and will invalidate its warranty.

Use of spray guns

• Do not aim a spray gun at people or animals!
• When spraying keep away from heat and naked flames!
