17. REMOVE FINGER FROM TRIGGER
when not driving fasteners. Never carry tool
with finger on trigger: tool will fire a fastener
if rubber cap is bumped while trigger is
depressed. Fig. 10.
18. USE THE MALLET TO RACK THE
WOOD STRIP, NOT THE NAILER
. Fig. 11.
19. DO NOT USE THE METAL END OF
THE MALLET TO STRIKE THE PLUNGER,
use the rubber capped end only.
20. FIRE FASTENERS INTO WORK
SURFACE ONLY:
never into materials too
hard to penetrate.
21. DO NOT USE THE NAILER TO
POSITION
the flooring strips. Hitting the
rubber cap without first activating the trigger
will cause severe internal damage to the
Nailer. Fig.12.
22. THE TRIGGER IS A SAFETY DEVICE
and should only be pulled when the Nailer is
in proper position on the work surface and
before the rubber cap is struck with the
mallet. Do not tie or tape down the safety
trigger as the Nailer could discharge if
dropped on the rubber cap. The Nailer will
not fire unless the trigger is pulled before the
mallet blow. Fig.13.
23. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS
on top of
other fasteners: the fasteners can ricochet
causing personal injury.
