Just as no one can merely read a book about driving an automobile and then hope  
to drive one safely, no one should attempt to use any Ramset tool without adequate, 
competent personal instruction. And just as one must be licensed to drive an automobile, 
one must also be licensed to use a powder actuated tool. No automobile instruction  
book or instructor can forewarn a learner against all possibilities and emergencies, nor 
can Ramset instructors and printed material detail all possible conditions surrounding  
the use of Ramset tools and products. 

Responsibility for the safe and proper use of this tool rests with the tool user 

and the employer.
