•When operating this equipment, the operator must
wear approved job related safety attire. Eye and hearing
protection must be worn at all times while equipment is
in use as sound levels exceed 85 dBA. Steel toe safety
shoes should be worn. Head protection is required if work
is performed overhead. Wear proper dust mask based on
material being removed.
•Use the correct size air hose for the tool, ½” diameter
(minimum). Hose and ttings must be rated for safe
handling in excess of 100 PSI pressure. The working
pressure of this tool is 80-90 PSI and should never be
allowed to exceed 100 PSI.
•ALR-E Limit the hose length to 30 feet (10 meters) max-
imum. Note: The pressure drop of 1/2” diameter hose is
approximately 1 PSI per 90 linear feet.
•ALR-BS Limit the hose length to 30 feet (10 meters)
maximum. Note: The pressure drop of 3/8” diameter hose
is approximately 3 PSI per 90 linear feet.
•A lter/water separator must be provided on the air
source to aord an adequate supply of clean, dry air to
this tool. A lubricator should also be used. If a lubricator is
unavailable, lubricate the tool daily by putting 4 to 5 drops
of lightweight machine oil in the hose connector opening
prior to connecting the air supply. In cold weather, use
graphite oil for lubrication.
•Disconnect the air supply before re-
moving or installing a chisel or accessory.
Squeeze the hand lever to release all com-
pressed air from the tool. Use only genuine EDCO chisels
and accessories with this equipment. Failure to do so may
result in serious bodily injury or death.
•Replace any damaged parts immediately. Use only
genuine EDCO parts.

ed, will result in death or serious injury.
Indicates an imminent hazard which, if not avoid-
ed, can result in death or serious injury.
Indicates hazards which, if not avoided, could
result in serious injury and or damage to the

READ AND UNDERSTAND THE OPERATOR’S INSTRUCTION MANUAL THOROUGHLY
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE THIS EQUIPMENT.
Death or serious injury could occur if this equipment is used improperly.
•Safety Instructions are proceeded by a graphic alert symbol
of DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION.
DUST WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals
known to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints, and
• Crystalline silica from bricks, concrete and other
masonry products.
Your risk of exposure to these chemicals varies depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your risk:
work in a well ventilated area, use a dust control system,
such as an industrial-style vacuum, and wear approved
personal safety equipment, such as a dust/particle respi-
rator designed to lter out microscopic particles.
•To install or remove chisel: Disconnect the air supply.
Squeeze the hand lever to release all compressed air.
Pull back in the spring loaded locking collar and hold while
removing the chisel. Hold back on the spring loaded lock-
ing collar while firmly seating the new chisel in the holder.
Release collar to retain the chisel.
•The appropriate accessory must be used for the job at
hand. Do NOT force the tool into the work. The hammering
action of the tool will perform the work for you. NEVER
USE THE TOOL AS A PRY BAR. Damage to the equip-
ment will result. If the tool does not seem to perform the
work to your specifications, try another accessory or
contact Discount-equipment
•To activate tool, attach the air source, firmly grip the
tool and then squeeze the hand lever on the air valve.
• After releasing the air valve hand lever,
the tool will continue to operate for up to 15
seconds. This is a normal result of stored
up pressure in the tool casing being released gradually.
Be sure to rmly grip the tool until ALL air leaves the
chamber.
•Remove the air source from the tool when not in use.
•This equipment will create dust from the
material being removed. That dust may
contain a chemical known to the state of
California to cause cancer and/or birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Check the chemical properties of the
materials to be removed.
•It is the operator’s responsibility to
keep other people (workers, pedestrains,
bystanders, etc.) away during operation.
Block o the work area in all directions with roping, safety
netting, etc. for a safe distance. Failure to do so may result
in others being injured by ying debris or exposing them
to harmful dust and noise.
