• Please only use the lubrication oil specified in this manual to perform the lubrication. Use of other lubri-
cation may cause damage to the tool and implies the risk of malfunction that could injure the operator.
• Do not use the tool with materials that are too hard or too soft. Hard material can ricochet nails
that can injure people, soft material may be penetrated easily and cause the nail to free fly. Do
only drive nails into proper working surfaces.
• The tool needs to be used in well ventilated areas. Do not inhale the exhaust, the fume or the gas
because they are potentially dangerous to human body.
• Do not use the tool to perform any other job than the designated function. Especially do not use
the tool as a hammer, impact on the tool will increase the risk of cracked body and could lead to
misfunction of the tool.
• When disengaging the nail push button, do not release it and allow it to jump forward. Guide it
forward slowly. There is a risk of pinching the fingers.
• Stay alert, focus on your work and use common sense when working with the tool. Do not use the
tool when tired, after having consumed drugs or alcohol, or while under the influence of medication.
• Do not drive nails into other nails.
• After driving a nail, the tool may spring back (“recoil”) causing it to move away from the working
surface. To reduce the risk of injuries always manage recoil by: Always maintaining control of the
tool, allowing the tool to move away from the working surface. Do not completely straighten your
arms, always keep them flexed when using the tool.
• When working close to an edge of a working surface or at steep angles use care to minimize
chipping, splitting or splintering, or free flight or ricochet of nails, which may cause injury.
• Keep hands and body away from the nail discharge area of the tool.
• Do not operate the tool with any other power source than specified in the tool manual.
• Use extra caution when driving nails into existing walls or other blind areas to prevent contact
with hidden objects or persons on the other side (e.g. wires, pipes.)
• When fastening electrical cables, make sure the cables are not energized. Hold the tool only by
insulated gripping surfaces. Use only nails designed for electrical cable installations. Inspect
that the nail has not damaged the insulation of the electrical cables. A nail that damages the
insulation of electric cables can lead to electric shock and fire hazards.
• The fuel cell is a high pressure liquefied gas bottle. Keep it away from spark, fire or high tempera-
ture and explosive environment. Do not puncture the bottle or attempt to open the fuel cell.
• The content of the fuel cell is extremely flammable, keep it away from all source of ignition.
• Do not leave the fuel cell in direct sun light. Do not use the tool at temperatures higher than 50°C
(120°F). Overheating the fuel cell can result in explosion or fire.
• Do not store the fuel cell or tool in temperatures above 50°C (120°F). High temperature can result
in explosion or fire and the release of flammable gas. When not in use, keep the tool away from
high temperature source or direct sun light.
• When the fuel is used up, do not incinerate the can. Follow the recycle instruction on the can.
Recycle the empty fuel cell according to local law. Do not attempt to recharge the fuel cell or
incinerate the empty fuel cell.
