2.1 Instructions
The following standard is applicable to fastener driving tools; EN792-
13:2000+A1:2008”Hand-held
non-electric power tools-safety requirements
– Part 13: Fastener driving tools”.
This standard requires that
-
only those fasteners which are specified in the operating instructions (see TECHNICAL
DATA)shall be used in fastener driving tools. The fastener driving tool and the fasteners specified
in the operating instructions are to be considered as one unit safety system;
-
quick action couplings shall be used for connection to the compressed air system and the
non-sealable nipple must be fitted at the tool in such a way that no compressed air remains in the
tool after disconnection;
-
oxygen or combustible gases shall not be used as an energy source for compressed air operated
fastener driving tools;
-
fastener driving tools shall only be connected to an air-supply where the maximum allowable
pressure of the tool cannot be exceeded by more than 10%;in the case of higher pressure ,a
pressure reducing valve which includes a downstream safety valve shall be built into the
compressed air supply;
-
only spare parts specified by the manufacturer or his authorized representative shall be used in
the repair of fastener driving tools;
-
repairs shall be carried out only by the manufacturers authorized agents or by other experts,

-
NOTE: Specialists are those who, as a result by professional training or experience, have
sufficient expertise in the field of fastener driving tools and sufficient familiarity with relevant
govemmental industrial protection provisions, accident prevention regulations, directives and
generally recognized technical regulations(e.g. CEN-and CENELEC-standards),to be able to
assess the safe working condition of fastener driving tools.
