18. MAKE THE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF. Use padlocks and master switches and ALWAYS remove
starter keys. Keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operating the power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control. When tool is not in use, it should be locked away in a safe place.
19. DO NOT operate the tool if you are under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication that may affect your
ability to properly use the tool.
20. REMOVE FINGER FROM TRIGGER when not driving fasteners. Never carry the tool with your finger on
the trigger.
21. MAKE SURE HOSE is free of obstructions or snags. Entangled or snarled hoses can cause a loss of balance.
22. DO NOT DISCHARGE fasteners into open air, concrete, stone, extremely hard woods, knots or any material
too hard for the fastener to penetrate. Do not use the body of the tool or top cap as a hammer. Discharged fasteners
may follow unexpected paths and cause bodily injury.
23. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS near the edge of your work material. The workpiece may split, causing the
fastener to ricochet, injuring you or a co-worker. Be aware that the staple may follow the grain of the wood, causing
it to protrude unexpectedly from the side of the work material. Drive the staple perpendicular to the grain to reduce
risk of injury.
SAFETY RULES
24. DO NOT DRIVE STAPLES onto the heads of other fasteners. Do not use the tool at too steep
of an angle. Personal injury from strong recoil, jammed fasteners, or richocheted staples may result.
25. BE AWARE of material thickness when using the stapleer. A protruding staple may cause injury.
26. KNOW that when the tool is being utilized at pressures on the high end of its operating range, staples can be
driven completely through thin or very soft work material. Make sure the pressure in the compressor is set so that
staples are set into the material and not pushed completely through.
27. KEEP HANDS AND BODY PARTS CLEAR of immediate work area. Hold workpiece with clamps when
necessary to keep body parts out of potential harm. Be sure the workpiece is properly secured before pressing the
stapler against the material.
28. DO NOT USE THE TOOL in the presence of flammable dust, gases or fumes. The tool may produce a spark
that could ignite gases causing a fire. Driving a staple into another staple may also cause a spark.
29. KEEP FACE AND BODY PARTS away from the back of the tool cap when working in restricted areas.
Sudden recoil can result in impact to the body, especially when stapling into hard or dense material.
30. GRIP THE TOOL FIRMLY to maintain control while still allowing it to recoil away from the work surface as
the fastener is driven. In bump action mode (contact actuation mode), be careful as to not fire an unwanted fastener.
