SAFETY
USE CORRECT FASTENERS
Only use the correct fastener for the tool. Using fasteners
with incorrect specifications can jam the tool or cause
serious injuries.
USE THE CORRECT FASTENERS FOR THE APPLICATION.
Using the wrong fasteners can cause the workpiece to split
and allow the fastener to fly free.
KEEP TOOL POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION WHEN LOADING
FASTENERS.
Never point the tool at yourself or anyone else when loading
fasteners.
DO NOT LOAD TOOL WITH TRIGGER DEPRESSED.
Depressing the trigger during loading can result in an
unintentional fastener drive.
KEEP FINGER OFF TRIGGER UNTIL TOOL IS IN POSITION TO
DRIVE A FASTENER.
An unexpected bump or sudden contact with your body or that
of a bystander can result in serious injuries.
AVOID DRIVING FASTENERS INTO KNOTS, ON TOP OF
OTHER FASTENERS, AT WORKPIECE EDGES, OR INTO
BRITTLE MATERIALS.
Driving fasteners into extremely hard materials, or driving into
workpiece edges, can cause fasteners to deflect away from
the workpiece. Flying fasteners can cause serious injuries.
DO NOT MODIFY TOOL
Modifications can cause a tool to be unsafe and can cause
the tool to operate improperly.
ONLY USE A RELIEVING-TYPE AIR COUPLING IN THE TOOL
AIR INLET OPENING.
Use of a non-relieving air coupling on the tool can trap air
inside the tool housing, and allow the tool to drive a fastener
even after the air hose has been disconnected.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY
KEEP HANDS AND BODY PARTS AWAY FROM AREA BEING
FASTENED.
Fasteners can deflect and turn as they are being driven into
the workpiece, and penetrate fingers, hands, and other body
parts that may be in the fastening area.
DO NOT OVERREACH OR WORK WHILE ON UNSTABLE
FOOTING
If you lose your balance while fastening, you could drive a
fastener into yourself or a bystander.
DO NOT USE TOOL IF TOOL MALFUNCTIONS OR BEGINS
LEAKING AIR.
Operating a malfunctioning tool can result in an unexpected
fastener discharge and injury to yourself or others.
DISCONNECT THE TOOL FROM THE AIR SUPPLY TO RE-
LOAD, CLEAR JAMS, OR PERFORM MAINTENANCE.
Never attempt to reload a tool, clear a jam, or perform
maintenance without first disconnecting the air supply.
NEVER LEAVE A LOADED, PRESSURIZED TOOL
UNATTENDED
A loaded, pressurized tool could be picked up or handled by
someone who is unfamiliar with the tool or that has not read
the tool manual.
KEEP TOOLS OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN
Place the tool back in the tool box after use, and store the tool
out of reach.
