IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: WHEN USING THIS TOOL, BASIC
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOL-
LOWED TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL
INJURY, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
1.
For personal safety and proper operation and
maintenance of the tool, read this instruction
manual carefully before using the tool.
2.
Always wear safety glasses to protect your eyes
from dust or nail injury. The safety glasses
should conform with the requirements of ANSI
Z87.1.
WARNING:
It is an employer’s responsibility to enforce the
use of safety eye protection equipment by the
tool operators and by other persons in the imme-
diate working area.
3.
Wear hearing protection to protect your ears
against exhaust noise and head protection. Also
wear light but not loose clothing. Sleeves should
be buttoned or rolled up. No necktie should be
worn.
4.
Rushing the job or forcing the tool is dangerous.
Handle the tool carefully. Do not operate when
under the influence of alcohol, drugs or the like.
5.
General Tool Handling Guidelines:
(1) Always assume that the tool contains fasten-
ers.
(2) Do not point the tool toward yourself or any-
one whether it contains fasteners or not.
(3) Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is
placed firmly against the workpiece.
(4) Respect the tool as a working implement.
(5) No horseplay.
(6) Do not hold or carry the tool with a finger on
the trigger.
(7) Do not load the tool with fasteners when any
one of the operating controls is activated.
(8) Do not operate the tool with any power
source other than that specified in the tool
operating/safety instructions.
6.
An improperly functioning tool must not be
used.
7.
Sparks sometimes fly when the tool is used. Do
not use the tool near volatile, flammable materi-
als such as gasoline, thinner, paint, gas, adhe-
sives, etc.; they will ignite and explode, causing
serious injury.
8.
The area should be sufficiently illuminated to
assure safe operations. The area should be clear
and litter-free. Be especially careful to maintain
good footing and balance.
9.
Only those involved in the work should be in the
vicinity. Children especially must be kept away at
all times.
10. There may be local regulations concerning noise
which must be complied with by keeping noise
levels within prescribed limits. In certain cases,
shutters should be used to contain noise.
11. Do not play with the contact element: it prevents
accidental discharge, so it must be kept on and
not removed. Securing the trigger in the ON
position is also very dangerous. Never attempt
to fasten the trigger. Do not operate a tool if any
portion of the tool operating controls is inopera-
ble, disconnected, altered, or not working prop-
erly.
