Power Tool Use & Care
a)
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed
b)
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired
c)
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery
pack from the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally
d)
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users
e)
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment 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
Service
a)
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

Air Tool Safety
Dangerous environment
• Always ensure there is adequate clear space around the work area. Only
use spraying tools in a well ventilated area or a specialist spray booth. Be
aware that air hoses can present a trip hazard; always lay hoses in a way
that minimises hazards
Protection from vibration
• Hand-held air tools may produce vibration and should not be used for
long periods without a break. Vibration can cause disease. Gloves may
help to maintain good blood circulation in the fingers.
Maintain your air tool
• Ensure that you keep air tools clean and lubricated. Lubrication is
essential to prevent corrosion of internal parts, which could lead to
machine failure
Always disconnect
• Always ensure the air tool is switched OFF before connecting to air
supply. Be aware that air tools may hold residual pressure after use.
Always bleed air pressure from the tool after shutting off air supply
• Ensure fasteners are correctly fitted before reconnecting to the air supply
• Disconnect an air tool from the air supply before inserting fasteners,
attachments or performing any servicing
• Always ensure that your air tool has fully stopped functioning before
putting it down
Use the correct air hose
• Use a correctly rated air hose appropriate to the compressor and this
product
Protective equipment
• Wear appropriate safety equipment, including eye, ear and hand
protection
Use of air staplers/nailers
• Do not aim this tool at people or animals
• Always wear appropriate protective equipment including but not limited
to overalls, gloves, etc
• It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that any other persons in
the vicinity of the work area are also equipped with the appropriate
protective equipment
Do not abuse the machine
• Do not overload the machine. Allowing the machine to work at its
optimum speed is safer and prolongs its service life
• Do not increase air pressure above the recommended level; excessive
pressure leads to wear of moving parts, possible failure and may cause
the machine casing to split
• Do not attempt to modify air tools. Any attempt to modify this air tool
could result in serious injury to you or others, and will invalidate its
warranty
