NAILER SAFETY WARNINGS
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
• Never service damaged battery packs.
Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorised service providers.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact ac-
cidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
•

perature above 130°C (265°F) may cause explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature

• Always assume that the tool contains fasten-
ers.
Careless handling of the nailer can result in
• Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone
nearby.
Unexpected triggering will discharge the
fastener causing an injury.
• Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed

Disconnect the tool from the power source when
the fastener jams in the tool.
While removing a
jammed fastener, the nailer may be accidentally
activated if it is plugged in.
Use caution while removing a jammed fastener.
The mechanism may be under compression and the
fastener may be forcefully discharged while attempt-
ing to free a jammed condition.
Do not use this nailer for fastening electrical ca-
bles.
It is not designed for electric cable installation
and may damage the insulation of electric cables
Prior to each use, check workpiece contact and
trigger for correct operation.
Do not disassemble
or clamp parts of the workpiece contact, trigger, or
driving mechanism. This will cause unexpected
actuation, resulting in serious injury.
•Do not engage in horseplay.
The discharged
fasteners are projectiles capable of causing seri-
ous injury.
•Do not remove, tamper with, or otherwise cause
the tool operating controls to become inoper-
able.
This will cause unexpected actuation, resulting
in serious injury.
•Do not operate a tool if any portion of the tool
operating controls is inoperable, disconnected,
altered, or not working properly.
This will cause
unexpected actuation, resulting in serious injury.

• lead from lead-based paint
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed to
•Always keep hands and body away from dis-
charge area of the tool.
Never attempt to clear
a jammed workpiece contact by grasping the
discharge area of the tool. Fasteners discharged
from tool can cause serious injury if they contact
hands or body.
•Do not drive fasteners close to the edge of the
workpiece.

them projectiles capable of causing serious injury.
•Use the tool only for the intended purpose. Do
not abuse the tool.
Do not use as a hammer, stamp
or engrave information onto parts, drop or impact
the tool or otherwise apply excess force to the tool
in use. Do not mount the tool to stands or modify it
for stationary use.

Do not use a battery pack or tool that is
damaged or modified.
Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
Always use common sense and be cautious
when using tools. It is not possible to
anticipate every situation that could result in a
dangerous outcome.

ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY RULES
WARNING
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, personal
injury, and product damage due to
a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery
pack or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to flow inside
them. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such as
seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach
or bleach-containing products, etc., can cause a
short circuit.
Do not charge non-rechargeable
batteries.
