INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the DEWALT P3600 low velocity powder actuated tool. This
tool will provide you with excellent performance provided the steps for proper operation
and maintenance are followed. Powder actuated fastening systems can provide a
cost effective method of attaching fixtures for light duty, static load conditions. The
systems provided by DEWALT consist of specially designed fasteners, installation
tools, and powder loads, which are designed to function in combination to provide
optimum performance. While powder actuated tools can provide one of the fastest and
economical means of fastening, they can also be dangerous if they are not operated
properly.
Prior to operating the P3600 tool, you must be properly trained in the operation and
maintenance of this tool and be issued a DEWALT Qualified Operator Card. When using

Powder actuated tools may be operated only by properly trained operators as
described in ANSI Standard A 10.3, Safety Requirements for Powder Actuated
Fastening Systems. For complete tool operation details, contact your local DEWALT
