SAFETY
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THE TOOL IF THE
TOOL’S OPERATING CONTROLS HAVE BEEN MODIFIED
OR ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY.
Attempting to use a tool with modified or malfunctioning trigger
or workpiece contact can result in a fastener being driven
unintentionally.
USE CORRECT FASTENERS
Only use the correct fastener for the tool. Using fasteners
with incorrect specifications can jam the tool or cause serious
injuries.
USE THE CORRECT FASTENERS FOR THE APPLICATION.
Using the wrong fasteners can cause the workpiece to split
and allow the fastener to fly free.
KEEP TOOL POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION WHEN
LOADING
FASTENERS.
Never point the tool at yourself or anyone else when loading
fasteners.
DO NOT LOAD TOOL WITH TRIGGER OR WORKPIECE
CONTACT DEPRESSED.
Depressing the trigger or workpiece contact during loading
can result in an unintentional fastener drive if both devices are
accidentally actuated at the same time.
KEEP FINGER OFF TRIGGER UNTIL TOOL IS IN POSITION
TO DRIVE A FASTENER.
An unexpected bump or sudden contact with your body or that
of a bystander can result in serious injuries.
AVOID DRIVING FASTENERS INTO KNOTS, ON TOP OF
OTHER FASTENERS, AT WORKPIECE EDGES, OR INTO
BRITTLE MATERIALS.
Driving fasteners into extremely hard materials, or driving into
workpiece edges, can cause fasteners to deflect away from
the workpiece. Flying fasteners can cause serious injuries.
