heating up. Otherwise, the extension cord could melt and catch fire, or cause electrical
damage to the tool. Check your air compressor’s manual for the appropriate size cord.  It
is also possible that the use of an extension cord may cause your circuit breaker to trip or
your panel fuse to break.  If this happens, either use the compressor without an exten-
sion cord or find a larger amperage circuit to use.

19.

Maintenance.  The maintenance outlined in the maintenance section should be performed
regularly.  For your safety, this product should be serviced or repaired regularly only by a
qualified technician.

20.

Compressed air only.  Never use combustible gas as a power source.

21.

Do not load nails with the trigger or safety depressed.  Unintentional firing
may occur.  Do not load nails when the air hose is connected to the tool.  Always
assume that the tool contains fasteners.

22.

Disconnect air supply before loading Nailer.  Before reloading (or making any
adjustments to) the Nailer make sure that the compressed air is disconnected.

23.

Fire fasteners into an appropriate work surface only.  Do not attempt to fire fasteners
into surfaces too hard to penetrate.  Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners, or
at too steep of an angle.  Fasteners can ricochet causing personal injury.  Never fire the
Nailer into the air, or point it toward yourself or another person.  Always wear ANSI
approved safety goggles during use, maintenance, and reloading.

24.

Do not fire fasteners too close to the edge of a workpiece.  They may split the
workpiece and fly free, causing personal injury.

25.

Take caution as some woods contain preservatives such as copper chromium
arsenate (CCA) which can be toxic
. When stapling or nailing these materials extra
care should be taken to avoid inhalation and minimize skin contact.

WARNING:  Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other

construction activities, contain chemicals known [to the State of California] to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement or other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber

(California Health & Safety Code  25249.5,

 et seq. )

26.

Stay within air pressure capacity.  Never operate the Nailer above 95 PSI.

27.

Hold tool away from head and body.  During operation the Nailer may kick back causing
injury.

28.

Transport Nailer safely.  Always disconnect air supply when moving the tool in the
workplace.  Carry the tool by the handle and avoid contact with the trigger.

29.

Avoid working alone.  If an accident happens, an assistant can bring help.

Note: Performance of the compressor (if powered by line voltage) may vary depending on

variations in local line voltage. Extension cord usage may also affect tool performance.
