General Safety Instructions and Recommendations whilst using Air Equipment
Good Working Practices/Safety
The following suggestions will enable you to observe good working practices, keep yourself and fellow
workers safe and maintain your tools and equipment in good working order.
WARNING!! KEEP TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT OUT OF THE REACH OF YOUNG
CHILDREN
Air Powered Tools
!
Work Place/Environment
Keep the tool clean; it will enable you to more easily
see any damage that may have occurred. Clean the
tool with a damp soapy cloth if needs be, do not use
any solvents or cleaners, as these may cause
damage to any plastic components. Check the tool
for damage both before and after work. If damage
has occurred, have it repaired by a suitably qualified
person.
Check the air lines are undamaged, that supply
galleries, spurs or connectors are not leaking.
Keep the work area as well lit and uncluttered as is
practical, this includes personnel as well as material.
Under no circumstances should CHILDREN be
allowed in work areas.
It is good practice to leave the tool disconnected
from the air supply until work is about to
commence, when it is not in use, or unattended.
Once you are ready to commence work, remove any
tools used in the setting up operations (if any) and
place safely out of the way. Re-connect the tool.
Carry out a final check e.g. the connector is tight ‘on’,
the air lines are not leaking, any bits etc, fitted to the
tool are secure, check you have the correct pressure
set, and if you require to move around during the
work operation, that air lines etc, will not ‘snag’.

General Safety Instructions and Recommendations
whilst using Air Equipment (Continued)
Make sure you are comfortable before you start
work, balanced, not reaching etc., If the work you
are carrying out is liable to generate flying grit,
dust or chips, wear the appropriate safety clothing,
goggles, gloves, masks etc., If the work operation or
environment appears to be excessively noisy, wear
ear-defenders. If you wear your hair in a long style,
wearing a cap, safety helmet, hairnet, even a sweat-
band, will minimise the possibility of your hair
being caught up in the rotating/moving parts of
the tool, likewise, consideration should be given to
the removal of rings and wristwatches, if these are
liable to be a ‘snag’ hazard. Consideration should
also be given to non-slip footwear, etc.
Do not work with cutting or boring tools of any
description if you are tired, your attention is wan-
dering or you are being subjected to distraction. A
deep cut, a lost fingertip or worse; is not worth it!
Do not work with power tools of any description, if
you are currently taking medication, unless you
have ascertained that your medication will not
cause your judgement or awareness to be
impaired.
Do not use this tool within the designated safety
areas of flammable liquid stores or in areas where
there may be volatile gases. There are very expen-
sive, very specialised machines for working in these
areas, THIS IS NOT ONE OF THEM.
Check that cutters, drills, chisels etc., are the correct
type and size, are undamaged and are kept clean
and sharp, this will maintain their operating
performance and lessen the loading on the tool.
Above all, OBSERVE…. make sure you know what
is happening around you, and USE YOUR
COMMON SENSE.
