ments of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) z87.1. Failure to
comply with this warning could lead to serious or permanent damage to the
ears as well as serious damage or permanent blindness in the eyes.

hose could cause the brad nailer to remain charged and an accidental firing
could occur. Failure to comply with this warning could lead to serious injury to
the operator or bystanders.

brad nailer.

plers that release any built-up charge in the brad nailer’s firing mechanism. A
non-relieving air coupler can allow the brad nailer to discharge a fastener while
the tool is disconnected from the power source. Failure to comply with this
warning can result in serious or permanent injury or even death to the operator
or to bystanders.

steep of an angle. Nails can ricochet. Failure to comply with this warning can
result in serious injury or even death to the operator or bystanders.

ardize safety in the tool’s operation. Failure to follow this precaution can result
in serious injury or even death to the operator or bystanders.

ing against a perpendicular surface, nail from the top down. This causes less
fatigue and reduces the chances of accidents.

nailer will result in bursting, abnormal operation or breakage of the
tool. Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air at levels speci-
fied on the tool. Failure to comply can cause severe injury or death to the oper-
ator or bystanders.

an accidental discharge of the brad nailer. Do not operate the brad nailer if any
portion of the tool’s operating controls are inoperable, disconnected, altered in
any way or not in proper working order. Failure to comply with this warning
could result in serious injury or even death to the operator or other bystanders.

accidental discharge of the brad nailer. Do not press the trigger of the brad nail-
er unless it is pressed firmly against the work piece. Do not point the brad nail-
er at yourself or in the direction of another person. Failure to comply with this
warning could result in serious injury or even death to the operator or other
bystanders.

accidental discharge of the brad nailer and should never be removed or com-
promised in any way. Failure to comply with this warning could result in seri-
ous injury or even death to the operator or other bystanders.

tion before using the brad nailer. The brad nailer must not operate if only the
trigger is pulled or if only the work piece contact is pressed against the work
piece. The brad nailer must only be used if both the trigger and work piece con-
tact work at the same time.
