or property damage.
The warnings, cautions, and instructions in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions or sit -
uations that could occur. Exercise common sense and caution when using the tongs. Always be
aware of the environment and ensure that the tongs are used in a safe and responsible manner.
Do not allow persons to operate or assemble the tongs until they have read this manual and have
developed a thorough understanding of how they work.
Do not modify the tongs in any way. Unauthorized modification may impair the function and/or
safety and could affect the life of the tongs. There are specific applications for which the tongs
were designed.
Use the right tool for the job. DO NOT attempt to force small equipment to do the work of larger in -
dustrial equipment. There are certain applications for which this equipment was designed. It will be
a safer experience and do the job better at the capacity for which it was intended. DO NOT use
the tongs for a purpose for which they were not intended.

WORK AREA SAFETY

Inspect the work area before each use. Keep your work area, dry, free of clutter and well-lit.
Cluttered, wet or dark work areas can result in injury. Using the tongs in confined work areas
may put you dangerously close to cutting tools and rotating parts.
Keep children and bystanders away from the work area while operating the tongs. Do not al-
low children to handle the tongs.

PERSONAL SAFETY

Stay alert and watch what you are doing. Always be aware when operating the tongs and do
not use them while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A short
moment of inattention while operating the tongs may result in serious personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects or jewelry. Keep your hair, cloth-
ing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught by
moving parts.
Wear proper personal protective equipment when necessary. Use ANSI Z87.1 compliant
safety goggles (not usual glasses) with side shields or when needed with a face shield. Us a
dust mask in dusty work conditions. Also use non-skid safety shoes, a hardhat, gloves, dust
collection systems and hearing protection when appropriate. This applies to all persons in the
work area.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
