as the specific potential hazards related to this tool. 

    Use only fasteners listed in the Accessories section of this manual. Fasteners not 

identified for use with this tool by the tool manufacturer may result in a risk of injury 

to persons or tool damage when use in this tool.

    Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any 

other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool 

serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained 

tools.There is a risk of bursting if the tool is damaged. 

    Maintain the tools with care. Keep a cutting tool sharp and clean. A properly 

maintained tool, with sharp cutting edges reduces the risk of binding and is easier 

to control.

    Store the tools,in a secure place,when not in use and out of reach of children and

    other untrained persons. A tool is dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

    Do not use the tool if the hammer cap does not turn the tool on or off. Any tool that

cannot be controlled with the hammer cap is dangerous and must be repaired.

    Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do 

the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed. 

    Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a 

stable platform. Holding a tool by hand or against the body is unstable and may 

lead to loss of control.

    Keep the tool and its handle dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Always use a 

clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based 

products, or any strong solvents to clean your tool.

    Do not use the tool as a hammer.

    Never use this tool in a manner that could cause a fastener to be directed toward 

anything other than the workpiece. 

    Never use gasoline or other flammable liquids to clean the tool. Never use the tool 

in the presence of flammable liquids or gases. Vapours could ignite by a spark and 

cause an explosion which will result in death or serious personal injury. 

    Do not remove, tamper with, or otherwise cause the trigger lock or trigger to 

become inoperable. Do not operate any tool which has been modified in a like 

fashion. Death or serious personal injury could result. 

    Do not touch the trigger unless driving fasteners. Never attach air line to tool or 

carry tool while touching the trigger. The tool could eject a fastener which will result 

in death or serious personal injury. Also actuate the trigger lock to the safe position 

when not in use. 

    Always fit tool with a fitting or hose coupling on or near the tool in such a manner 

that all compressed air in the tool is discharged at the time the fitting or hose 

coupling is disconnected. Do not use a heck valve or any other fitting which allows 

air to remain in the tool. Death or serious personal injury could occur.

    Never place hands or any other body parts in the fastener discharge area of the 

tool. The tool might eject a fastener and could result in death or serious personal 

injury.

    Never carry the tool by the air hose or pull the hose to move the tool away from a 

compressor. Keep hoses away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Replace any hose 

that is damaged, weak or worn. Personal injury or tool damage could occur.

WARNING!

the tool with finger on trigger, the tool may fire a fastener.

doing tool maintenance, clearing jams, leaving work area, or unloading the tool. Such 

precautionary measures reduce the risk of injury to persons.
