IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions before using this tool. Keep this manual for the safety warnings
and precautions, operating, inspection and maintenance instructions. When using this tool, basic precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of personal injury and/or damage to the equipment. Note that when
this manual refers to a part number, it refers to the parts list included. Before allowing someone else to use this
tool, make sure they are aware of all safety information.
WORK AREA
1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
2. Operate in a safe work environment. Do not use machines or air tools in damp or wet locations. Do not
expose to rain. Do not use power tools in the presence of flammable gases or liquids.
3. Keep children, bystanders and visitors away from the work area. Do not let them handle tools or extension
cords. No one should be in the work area if they are not wearing suitable protective equipment.
4. Store unused equipment. When not in use, tools must be stored in a dry location to prevent rust. Always
lock up tools and keep them out of reach of children.

PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Dress properly, wear protective equipment. Use breathing, ear, eye, face, foot, hand and head protection.
Always wear ANSI approved impact safety goggles, which must provide both frontal and side protection.
Protect your hands with suitable gloves. Wear a full face shield if your work creates metal filings or wood
chips. Protect your head from falling objects by wearing a hard hat. Wear an ANSI approved dust mask or
respirator when working around metal, wood and chemical dusts and mists. Wear ANSI approved earplugs.
Protective, electrically non-conductive clothes and non-skid footwear are recommended when working. Wear
steel toed boots to prevent injury from falling objects.
2. Do not over reach; keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
3. Keep any articles of clothing, jewelry, hair etc. away from moving parts. These can be caught in moving
parts, resulting in damage to the tool and/or serious injury.
4. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use your common sense. Do not operate any machine or tool when
you are tired, under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medications.
5. Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the work piece to a stable platform. Holding the
work piece by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
6. Do not allow the spray to strike you and do not spray toward people or animals. Do not spray the tool itself
or any electrical source.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Disconnect power supply. Disconnect from power supply when not in use, before cleaning, servicing or
changing any parts or accessories.
2. Protect yourself against electric shocks when working on electrical equipment. Avoid body contact with
grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cooking stoves and refrigerators. There is an increased chance
of electrical shock if your body is grounded.
3. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will
fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double
insulation eliminates the need for a three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
4. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes
and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If
the tool should electronically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry
electricity away from the user.
5. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Do not operate this tool if the power cord is frayed or damaged.
Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock. Do not modify the
plug in any way.
7. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These cords are
rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock. Use in conjunction with a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI). If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, the use of a GFCI reduces the
risk of electric shock. It is recommended that the GFCI should have a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
8. Avoid using an unnecessarily long extension cord. Choose a cord that is appropriate for the situation, as a
cord that is too long and running across the floor can be more dangerous than helpful. Using a cord that is
too long or too thin could damage the tool. Unroll the cord completely to prevent it from overheating.
9. Place the electrical cord in a position that prevents it from coming into contact with the tool and from getting
caught by the work piece. The cord should always stay behind the tool.

VIBRATION PRECAUTIONS
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent
physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended period should first be examined by a doctor and
then have regular medical check ups to ensure medical problems are not being caused by or worsened from
tool use. Pregnant women or people who have impaired blood circulation to the hands, past hand injuries,
nervous system disorders, diabetes or Raynaud’s Disease should not use this tool. If you feel any medical
symptoms related to vibrations (such as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers), seek medical
attention as soon as possible.
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the blood flow to the hands and fingers, increasing the risk of
vibration-related injury.
3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration effects on the user.
4. Use tools with the lowest amount of vibration when there is a choice between different processes.
5. Do not use for extended periods. Take frequent breaks when using this tool.
6. Let the tool do the work. Grip the tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping safe control of it).
7. To reduce vibrations, maintain tool as explained in this manual. If abnormal vibrations occur, stop using this
tool immediately.
8. This tool will not stop moving immediately. Do not lay the tool down or leave it unattended until it has come
to a complete stop. A part that is moving could make the tool jump or grab a surface and pull the tool out of
your control.
TOOL USE AND CARE
1. Use the right tool for the job. Do not attempt to force a small tool or attachment to do the work of a larger
industrial tool. The tool will perform better and more safely at the task for which it was intended. Do not
modify this tool or use for a purpose for which it was not designed.
2. Securely hold this tool using both hands. Using tools with only one hand can result in loss of control.
3. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean and in good condition for a better and safer performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool fittings, alignment and hoses periodically
and, if damaged, have them repaired by an authorized technician or replaced. The handles must be kept
clean, dry and free from oil and grease at all times. A properly maintained tool reduces the risk of binding
and is easier to control. Sharp tools are safer than tools which have become dull because you do not have to
apply excessive amounts of force to make your cuts. Applying excessive force can lead to slips and damage
to your work or personal injury.
4. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Check that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool or
machine before connecting it. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool increases the
risk of personal injury.
5. Avoid unintentional starts. Be sure that the switch is in neutral or OFF position when not in use and before
connecting it to any power source. Do not carry the tool with fingers near or on the switch.
6. Only use the lubricants supplied with the tool or specified by the manufacturer. Other lubricants may not be
suitable and may damage the tool or even make the tool explode.
7. When not in use for an extended period, apply a thin coat of lubricant to the steel parts to avoid rust.
8. Maintain the label and name plate on the tool. These carry important information. If unreadable or missing,
contact Princess Auto for a replacement.
