14 When using the tool, the wearing of safety glasses is required both by the operator and others in the vicinity to protect against fastener ejection, should
a fastener be placed 'in air'. We recommend wearing gloves if there are sharp edges or corners on the application.
15 Take care to avoid entanglement of loose clothes, ties, long hair, cleaning rags etc. in the moving parts of the tool which should be kept dry and clean
for best possible grip.

While a small amount of wear and marking will naturally occur through normal and correct use of mandrels, they must be regularly
examined for excessive wear and marking, with particular attention to the head diameter, the tail jaw gripping area of the shank
or heavy pitting of the shank and any mandrel distortion. Mandrels which fail during use could forcibly exit the tool. It is the
customer's responsibility to ensure that mandrels are replaced before any excessive levels or wear and always before the maximum
recommended number of placings. Contact your Avdel representative who will let you know what that figure is by measuring the
broach load of your application with a calibrated test tool. These tools can also be purchased under Part Number 07900-09080,
