or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g)
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc, in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a)
Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
b)
Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs.
Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c)
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects
that can make a connection from one terminal
to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause burns or a fire.
d)
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
6) SERVICE
e)
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
f)
When servicing a power tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
Maintenance section of this manual.
Use of
unauthorised parts or failure to follow Maintenance
instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.
NAILER SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING
The product is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the product by a person responsible
for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the product.
■
Always assume that the tool contains nails.
Careless handling of the nailer can result in unexpected
firing of nails and personal injury.
■
Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone
nearby.
Unexpected triggering will discharge the nail
causing an injury.
■
Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed
firmly against the workpiece.
If the tool is not in
contact with the workpiece, the nail may be deflected
away from your target.
■
Disconnect the tool from the power source when the
fastener jams in the tool.
While removing a jammed
fastener, the tacker may be accidentally activated if it
is plugged in.
■
Use caution while removing a jammed nail.
The
mechanism may be under compression and the nail
may be forcefully discharged while attempting to free
a jammed condition.
■
Do not use this nailer for fastening electrical cables.
It is not designed for electric cable installation and
may damage the insulation of electric cables thereby
causing electric shock or fire hazards.
■
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the nail may
contact hidden wiring.
Nails contacting a “live” wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live”
and could give the operator an electric shock.
■
Know your power tool. Read operator’s manual
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as
well as the specific potential hazards related to this
power tool.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
■
Always wear eye protection with side shields
marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
Everyday
glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They are not
safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
serious personal injury.
■
Eye protection which conforms to ANSI
specifications and provides protection against
flying particles both from the front and side should
always be worn by the operator and others in the
work area when loading, operating or servicing this
tool.
Eye protection is required to guard against flying
fasteners and debris, which could cause severe eye
injury.
■
The employer and/or user must ensure that proper
eye protection is worn.
We recommend Wide Vision
Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety
glasses that provide protection against flying particles
both from the front and side. Always use eye protection
which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
■
Additional safety protection will be required in
some environments.
For example, the working area
may include exposure to noise level which can lead to
hearing damage. The employer and user must ensure
that any necessary hearing protection is provided and
used by the operator and others in the work area. Some
environments will require the use of head protection
equipment. When required, the employer and user
must ensure that head protection conforming to ANSI
