16. DO NOT LOAD FASTENERS WITH TRIGGER PULLED OR PUSH LEVER DEPRESSED.
When loading fasteners into the Stapler or when connecting the air hose,
1)
do not pull the trigger;
2)
do not depress the push lever; and
3)
keep the Stapler pointed downward.
17. KEEP HANDS AND FEET AWAY FROM FIRING HEAD DURING USE.
Never place your hands or feet closer than 8 inches (200 mm) from the firing head.
A serious injury can result if the fasteners are deflected by the workpiece, or are driven
away from the point of entry.
18. PLACE STAPLER PROPERLY ON WORKPIECE.
Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners or with the Stapler at too steep of an
angle; the fasteners can ricochet and hurt someone.
19. BE CAREFUL OF DOUBLE FIRE DUE TO RECOIL.
If the push lever is unintentionally allowed to re-contact the workpiece following recoil,
an unwanted fastener will be driven.
In order to avoid this undesirable double fire,
1)
do not push the Stapler on the workpiece with strong force;
2)
take the Stapler completely away from the workpiece using recoil, and keep the
push lever away from the workpiece until the next desirable shot; and
3)
pull the trigger and release it QUICKLY when performing intermittent operation
(trigger fire).
20. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS INTO THIN BOARDS OR NEAR CORNERS AND EDGES OF
WORKPIECE.
The fasteners can be driven through or away from the workpiece and hit someone.
21. NEVER DRIVE FASTENERS FROM BOTH SIDES OF A WALL AT THE SAME TIME.
The fasteners can be driven into and through the wall and hit a person on the opposite
side.
22. CHECK FOR LIVE WIRES.
Avoid the risk of severe electrical shock by checking for live electrical wires that may be
hidden by walls, floors or ceilings. Turn off the breaker switch to ensure there are no
live wires.
23. NEVER CARRY STAPLER BY HOSE.
24. DO NOT OVERREACH.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times
25. NEVER USE STAPLER WHICH IS DEFECTIVE OR OPERATING ABNORMALLY.
If the Stapler appears to be operating unusually, making strange noises, or otherwise
appears defective, stop using it immediately and arrange for repairs by a Hitachi
authorized service center.
26. DO NOT DISCONNECT AIR HOSE FROM STAPLER WITH FINGER ON TRIGGER.
The Stapler can fire when re-connected to an air supply.
