3) The operator positions himself in relation to the LongReach Air Tool as depicted in FIGURE 18. The LongReach Air Tool should be placed as close to the bodyas practical and possible for the specific jobapplication. Assume a position which allows reactive"body english" against the energy produced duringeach blow. Operators should position their backs asvertical as possible by bending the legs as requiredduring the job process. This procedure will helpminimize back related problems with use. Positioningone foot in front of the other will enhance proper bodyposition. Maintaining proper operating positions is oneof the most IMPORTANT and EFFECTIVE proceduresfor controlling fatigue, body stress and productivityrates. Improper operating positions only aggravate theside effects upon the operator. FIGURE 19 andFIGURE 20 depict typical improper operator positionswhich reduce machine control.


FIGURE 184) The throttle control valve is depressed to begin theflow of compressed air to the piston. The piston willbegin to strike the accessory tool and provide energyfor the specific job process. Depressing the throttlecontrol valve to its maximum open position willmaximize the air flow rate and correspondingfrequency rates and blow force values. Normaloperation of the Long Reach Air Tool is with the throttlecontrol valve in its maximum depressed position.FIGURE 21.
