General Tool Handling Guidelines:
1. Always assume that the tool contains fasteners.
2. Do not point the tool toward yourself or anyone
whether it contains fasteners or not.
3. Do not activate 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.
• An improperly functioning tool must not be used.
• Sparks sometimes fly when the tool is used. Do not
use the tool near volatile, flammable materials such
as gasoline, thinner, paint, gas, adhesives, etc.;
they will ignite and explode, causing serious injury.
• 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.
• Only those involved in the work should be in the
vicinity. Children especially must be kept away at
all times.
• There may be local regulations concerning noise
which must be complied with by keeping noise lev-
els within prescribed limits. In certain cases, shut-
ters should be used to contain noise.
• 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 inoperable, discon-
nected, altered, or not working properly.
• Operate the tool within the specified air pressure of
0.44 – 0.83 MPa (4.4 – 8.3 bar) for safety and longer
tool life. Do not exceed the recommended max.
operating pressure of 0.83 MPa (8.3 bar). The tool
should not be connected to a source whose pres-
sure potentially exceeds 1.37 MPa (13.7 bar).
