HAZARD
RISK OF INJURY
(continued)
WHAT COULD
HAPPEN
Poor quality, improper,
or
damaged toots such as grind-
ing wheels, chisels, sockets,
drills, nailers, staplers, etc.,
can fly apart during operation,
propelling particles
throughout
the work area causing
serious
injury.
•
Improperly
maintained
tools
and
accessories
can
cause
serious
injury.
• There is a risk of bursting
if the
tool is damaged.
Fasteners could ricochet or be
•
propelled
causing
serious
injury
or property
damage.
Use only accessories
identified
by the manufacturer
to be
used with specific tools.
HOW TO PREVENT
IT
•
Always use tool attachments
rated for the speed of the
power tool
•
Never use toots which have
been dropped,
impacted
or
damaged
by use.
• Use only impact grade sock-
ets on an impact wrench.
•
Do not apply excessive
force
to the tool - let the tool
perform
the work.
Never point discharge of tool at
self or others.
Do not pull trigger unless too!
contact
safety device is against
work surface.
Never attempt to drive fasteners
into hard surfaces
such as
steel, concrete,
or tile.
Take care to avoid driving a fas-
tener on top of another fastener.
Position tool carefully so that
fasteners
will be delivered to
the proper location.
Maintain the tool with care.
Keep a cutting tool sharp and
clean. A propedy
maintained
tool, with sharp cutting
edges
reduces the risk of binding and
is easier to control.
Check i_or misaiignment
or
binding or moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any
other condition
that affects the
tool's operation.
If damaged,
have the tool serviced before
using.
Use of an accessory
not
intended for use with the
specific tools, increases the risk
of injury to persons.
