Vibration Hazards; Additional Safety Instruction For Pneumatic Power Tools - Stanley 74200 Manual De Instrucciones Y Servicio

E N G L I S H
• Use hearing protection in accordance with employer's instructions and as required by occupational health and safety
regulations.
• Select, maintain and replace the consumable/inserted tool as recommended in the instruction handbook, to prevent an
unnecessary increase in noise.

1.8 VIBRATION HAZARDS

• Exposure to vibration can cause disabling damage to the nerves and blood supply of the hands and arms.
• Wear warm clothing when working in cold conditions and keep your hands warm and dry. If you experience numbness,
tingling, pain or whitening of the skin in your fingers or hands, stop using the tool, tell your employer and consult a
physician.
• Where possible Support the weight of the tool in a stand, tensioner or balancer, because a lighter grip can then be used
to support the tool.
• Operate and maintain the assembly power tool for blind rivet nut fasteners as recommended in the instruction's
handbook, to prevent an unnecessary increase in vibration levels.
• Select, maintain and replace the consumable/inserted tool as recommended in the instruction handbook, to prevent an
unnecessary increase in vibration levels.
• Hold the tool with a light but safe grip, taking account of the required hand reaction forces, because the risk from
vibration is generally greater when the grip force is higher.

1.9 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTION FOR PNEUMATIC POWER TOOLS

• The operating supply air must not exceed 7 bar (102 PSI).
• Air under pressure can cause severe injury.
• Never leave operating tool unattended. Disconnect air hose when tool is not in use, before changing accessories or
when making repairs.
• Never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
• Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always check for damaged or loose hoses and fittings.
• Prior to use, inspect airlines for damage, all connections must be secure. Do not drop heavy objects on hoses. A sharp
impact may cause internal damage and lead to premature hose failure.
• Cold air shall be directed away from hands.
• Whenever universal twist couplings (claw couplings) are used, lock pins shall be installed and whip check safety cables
shall be used to safeguard against possible hose-to-tool or hose-to-hose connection failure.
• DO NOT lift the placing tool by the hose. Always use the placing tool handle.
• Vent holes must not become blocked or covered.
• Keep dirt and foreign matter out of the hydraulic system of the tool as this will cause the tool to malfunction.
