Default Ridiculous misspellings on a $4,725 tool!

That tool has a MSRP of $4,729. By the way, I have no idea why it
would be so expensive. I can buy 15 AK-47s, 5 AR-15s, or a couple of
new industrial 80 gallon compressors, for this price.

Look closely at the plate of the motor. You will see

INPUT AIR PRESSURE VS OUPUT TORQUE

and below

INPUT (PSIG) OUPUT (FT.LBS)

I am a little bit peeved that makers of this $4,729 tool did not know
how to spell "ouTput".


I wonder if the tool is made overseas and Snap-On just puts their label on
it. We've all seen other English misspellings from overseas. Even so, I'm
surprised that Snap-On let it happen.
