Question

do not carry pneumatic tools by the __________. a. air hose b. hose clamps c. retainers d. safety clips

Answer 1

The correct answer is A. Air hose. That's because the air hose is elastic on its own and becomes firm when air goes through it. If you were carrying it by the hose, then if the gear malfunctioned and air started rushing through you wouldn't be able to control the device and it could hurt you or anyone near you as it would go rampant and you wouldn't be able to catch it.
