PERSONAL SAFETY

WARNING! Water pressure produced by this unit can cut through skin and tissue leading to serious injury and
possible amputation.
Dress properly, wear protective equipment. Use breathing, ear, eye, face, foot, hand and head protection.
Always wear ANSI approved impact safety goggles, which must provide both frontal and side protection.
Always wear a mask when spraying. Protect your hands with suitable gloves. Wear a full face shield. Protect
your head from falling objects by wearing a hard hat. Wear an ANSI approved dust mask or respirator when
working around metal, wood and chemical dusts and mists. Wear ANSI approved earplugs. Protective,
electrically non-conductive clothes and non-skid footwear are recommended when working. Wear steel toed
boots to prevent injury from falling objects.
Use indirect vented safety goggles designed for wet conditions to protect eyes from injury.
Do not over reach; keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Keep any articles of clothing, jewellery, hair etc. away from moving parts. These can be caught in moving
parts, resulting in damage to the tool and/or serious injury.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use your common sense. Do not operate any machine or tool when
you are tired, under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medications.
Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the work piece to a stable platform. Holding the
work piece by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Do not allow the spray to strike you and do not spray toward people, animals, or any electrical source.
Do not touch movable parts or accessories while the power source is still connected.
Remove adjusting tools such as wrenches or keys before turning the tool on. A wrench or key left attached
to a rotating part will fly off and may cause personal injury.

VIBRATION PRECAUTIONS

This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent
physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended period should first be examined by a doctor and
then have regular medical check ups to ensure medical problems are not being caused by or worsened from
tool use. Pregnant women or people who have impaired blood circulation to the hands, past hand injuries,
nervous system disorders, diabetes or Raynaud's Disease should not use this tool. If you feel any medical
symptoms related to vibrations (such as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers), seek medical
attention as soon as possible.
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the blood flow to the hands and fingers, increasing the risk of
vibration-related injury.
3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration effects on the user.
4. Use tools with the lowest amount of vibration when there is a choice between different processes.
5. Do not use for extended periods. Take frequent breaks when using this tool.
6. Let the tool do the work. Grip the tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping safe control of it).
7. To reduce vibrations, maintain tool as explained in this manual. If abnormal vibrations occur, stop using this
tool immediately.
