1. HAND INJURIES:
Do not place
your hands near the staple point
of entry. A staple can deflect and
tear through the surface of the
workpiece, puncturing your hand
or fingers.
2. COMBUSTIBLE GASES:
Never
connect the stapler to pressur-
ized oxygen or other combustible
gases as a power source
.
Only
use filtered, lubricated, and regu-
lated compressed air.
3. SAFE HANDLING:
Never point
the stapler at others! Do not keep
the trigger pulled when loading
fasteners, carrying, or holding
tool. Carry the stapler only by the
handle, never by any other part.
Do not carry the stapler by the air
hose. Disconnect the stapler from
the air hose when going up and
down ladders.
4. AIR HOSE:
Make sure your air
hose is designed for the tool in
use, is in good condition, and is
long enough to reach your work
without stretching. However, an
overly long air hose in the work
area may be a tripping hazard.
Additional Safety Instructions for Staplers
5. COMPRESSED AIR RATING:
Do
not connect the stapler to com-
pressed air that exceeds 120 PSI.
6. CHECK VALVE:
Do not use a check
valve or any other fitting that allows
air to remain in the tool.
7. CLEANING:
Never use gasoline or
other flammable liquids to clean the
stapler; vapors in the stapler may
ignite by a spark and cause the sta-
pler to explode.
8. OPERATING QUESTIONS:
If you
are not sure about the intended
operation, stop using the stapler.
Seek formal training or research
sources that specialize in pneumatic
tools.
9. MAINTENANCE:
Always disconnect
air from the stapler when servicing or
installing staples. During adjustments
or maintenance, a stapler connected
to air may fire accidentally, causing
serious personal injury.
