SAFETY GLASSES
and
EAR PROTECTION
when
operating this stapler. The operator and others in the work area should
always wear approved
FRONT
and
SIDE
eye protection when operating
this stapler. Eye protection will help guard against
fl
ying staples and debris,
which could cause severe eye injury.
EYE AND EAR PROTECTION
should be used to prevent hearing damage
when there are high noise levels in the work area.
ALWAYS use ear plugs with a noise reduction rated at 29 db or highter at a
construction site.
Stapler noise ratings are at LPA-1sd=90.6,
LWA-1sd=99.3 and LPA-1s,1m=86.3.
Stapler vibration rating: m/s2=3.05.
Always
DISCONNECT THE AIR SUPPLY
before making any adjustments, repairing,
clearing jams or when the stapler is not in use. Do not use on scaffolding or ladders
and disconnect stapler from air supply when transporting between installation areas.
Never attach the female end of a quick disconnect to the stapler. This will trap
air inside the Stapler and permit it to be discharged. Only the unrestricted male
connection should be attached to the Stapler.
Stapler requires an air source that can continuously deliver 80 to 110 psi at 3-1/2 cubic
feet of air per minute for operation.
Normal air pressure should not exceed 120 psi or damage to the Stapler and seals
may occur. Excess air pressure can cause the Stapler to explode.
To prevent
fi
re or explosion, use only regulated compressed air—do not use bottled
gases of any kind (no oxygen or combustible gasses) to power this Stapler.

Whenever air is connected to the Stapler, keep body parts away from the staple
discharge path. Disconnect the air line before making adjustments or repairs on the
stapler. Only connect air to an unloaded stapler so as to prevent accidental discharge.
