Eye Protection
Impact resistant eye protection should
meet or exceed the standards as set forth
in the United States ANSI Z87.1,
Occupational and Educational Eye and
Face Protection. Look for the marking
Z87.1 on your eye protection to insure that
it is an approved style. For further
information, ANSI Z87.1, Occupational and
Educational Eye and Face Protection, is

Hearing Protection is
Recommended
Hearing protection should be used when the
noise level exposure equals or exceeds an
8 hour time-weighted average sound level
of 85 dBA. Process noise, reflective
surfaces, other tools being operated
nearby, all add to the noise level present in
your work area. If you are unable to
determine your noise level exposure, we
recommend the use of hearing protection.
Avoid Prolonged Exposure to
Vibration

Prolonged exposure to vibration or very
repetitive hand and arm movements, can
cause injury. Stop using any tool if
discomfort, tingling feeling or pain occurs.
You should consult your physician before
resuming use of the tool.

This tool is designed to operate at an air
pressure of 90 pounds per square inch
gauge pressure (90 PSIG) maximum, at the
