WARNING
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the

medication. A moment of inattention while operating the tongs may result in serious
personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
Wear the proper personal protective equipment when necessary. Use ANSI Z87.1

goggles (not safety glasses) with side shields, or when needed, a face shield. Use a
dust mask in dusty work conditions. Also use non-skid safety shoes, hardhat, gloves,
dust collection systems, and hearing protection when appropriate. This applies to all
persons in the work area.

⚠CAUTION
TONGS USE AND CARE
Do not force the tongs. Products are safer and do a better job when used in the
manner for which they are designed. Plan your work, and use the correct product for
the job.
Check for damaged parts before each use. Carefully check that the tongs will operate
properly and perform the intended function. Replace damaged or worn parts
immediately. Never operate the tongs with a damaged part.
Store the tongs when they are not in use. Store in a dry, secure place out of the reach
of children. Inspect the tool for good working condition prior to storage and before
re-use.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for use with your
tongs. Accessories that may be suitable for one product may create a risk of injury hen
