SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING! The tool is not electrically insulated. Never use the
tool if there is a chance of it coming into contact with
live electricity.
WARNING! Some wood contains preservative such as copper
chromium arsenate (CCA), which can be toxic. When working on
these materials extra care should be taken to avoid inhalation and
minimize skin contact.
1. Before using this tool, make sure you know the work area
and material you are working on. Make sure you do not
accidentally puncture pipes, pressurized containers or
electrical cables.
2. Do not point the tool at yourself, or others. Keep hands and
other body parts away from the nosepiece to avoid injury.
3. Only use with accessories rated to handle the forces exerted
by this tool during operation. Accessories not designed for
the forces generated may break and forcefully launch pieces.
4. Attach all accessories properly to the tool before connecting
the air supply. A loose accessory may detach or break
during operation.
5. Do not lay the tool down until it has come to a complete
stop. Moving parts can grab the surface and pull the tool out
of your control.
6. The chisels will become hot while chipping or scaling. Allow
the chisels to completely cool before touching.
7. When chipping or scaling in a potentially explosive
environment, use a spark resistant chisel (usually made of
beryllium copper).
8. Chisels that are worn or blunt at the cutting edge or shank.
A damaged chisel may damage the air hammer, reducing
eciency and increasing vibration. A chisel that breaks can
cause injury.
9. Do not store chisels below 0°C (32°F). Freezing
temperatures can make hardened steels brittle, which can
cause breakage and lead to injury.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
AIR TOOL PRECAUTIONS
1. Extended exposure to air tool noise may cause hearing loss.
Ear protection gear can reduce or eliminate the noise level.
Add a muing device to the air tool’s exhaust if possible.
2. Inspect the tool’s airline for cracks, fraying or other faults
before each use. Discontinue use if the airline is damaged
or hissing is heard from the airline or connectors, while
operating the tool. Replace the defective component/airline.
3. Do not allow people, mobile equipment or vehicles to pass
over the unprotected airline. Position the airline away from
high trac areas, in a reinforced conduit or place planks on
both sides of the airline to create a protective trench.

a. Never carry the tool by the airline.
b. Keep the airline behind the tool and out of the tool’s
work path.
c. Keep the airline away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts.
d. Do not wrap the airline around the tool as sharp edges
may pierce or crack the airline. Coil the airline
when storing.
5. A damaged or disconnected airline under pressure may
whip around and inflict personal injury or damage the work
area. Secure the compressor’s airline to a fixed or permanent
structure with clamps or cable ties.
6. Install an in-line shuto valve or regulator to allow immediate
control over the air supply in an emergency, even if a hose
is ruptured.
7. Check the manufacturer’s maximum pressure rating for air
tools and accessories. Compressor outlet pressure must
be regulated so as to never exceed the maximum pressure
rating of the tool.

6. When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Only
use accessories intended for use with this tool. Replace
damaged parts immediately.
7. Maintain the tool’s label and name plate. These carry
important information. If unreadable or missing, contact
Princess Auto Ltd. for replacements.
WARNING! Only qualified service personnel should repair the
tool. An improperly repaired tool may present a hazard to the
user and/or others.
AIR TOOL LUBRICATION
Only use air tool oil to lubricate the tool. Other lubricants may
not be suitable and could damage the tool or cause a malfunction
during use.
1. All air tools are packed in grease to prevent corrosion of
internal parts during shipping and storage. To clean this out,
add a generous amount of air tool oil in the air inlet, and then
run the tool under no load until exhaust is clear.
2. Manually add a drop or two of air tool oil into the tool’s
male connector before each use, and after every hour of
continuous use. Without lubrication, the tool will not work
properly and parts will wear prematurely.
3. Avoid adding too much air tool oil as this can cause
premature power loss and eventual tool failure. The tool will
need to be taken apart by a qualified technician and cleaned
of excess oil.
4. In the event that it becomes necessary to store the tool for
an extended period of time (overnight, weekend, etc.), it
should receive a generous amount of lubrication at that time.
The tool should be run for approximately 30 seconds to
ensure oil has been evenly distributed throughout the tool.
The tool should be stored in a clean and dry environment.
NOTICE! Never use a penetrating oil to lubricate an air tool.
Penetrating oil may act as a solvent that will break down the
grease and cause the tool to seize up.
