BUMP/SEQUENTIAL SELECTOR SWITCH (DCN690 AND DCN692 ONLY)
Sequential Action (Fig. K)
• When using the tool in sequential action, do not actuate the tool unless the
tool is placed firmly against the workpiece.
Bump Action (Fig. L)
• When using the tool in bump action, be careful of unin tentional double fires
resulting from tool recoil. Unwanted fasteners may be driven if the contact trip is
allowed to accidentally re-contact the work surface.
TO AVOID DOUBLE FIRES:
• Do not engage the tool against the work surface with a strong force.
• Allow the tool to recoil fully after each actuation.
• Use sequential action trigger.
• When bump actuating the framing nailer, always keep tool in control.
Inaccurate placement of tool can result in misdirected discharge of a nail.
• Be aware of material thickness when using nailer. A protruding nail may cause
injury.
• Depth adjustment: To reduce risk of serious injury from accidental actuation
when attempting to adjust depth, ALWAYS;
• Remove battery pack.
• Engage trigger lock-off (Fig. M).
• Avoid contact with trigger during adjustments
• Do not drive nails blindly into walls, floors or other work areas. Fasteners
driven into live electrical wires, plumbing, or other types of obstructions can result in
injury. (Fig. I)
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating
a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
WARNING: ALWAYS wear approved protective safety equipment complying with
the following standards:
• Eye protection: AS/NZS1337 Eye Protectors for Industrial Applications;
• Hearing protection: AS/NZS1270 Acoustics – Hearing Protection;
• Respiratory protection: AS/NZS1716 Respiratory Protective Devices.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects
or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash
exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes,
or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause
serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use AS/NZS1716 approved
respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from
face and body.
WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to
AS/NZS1270 during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this
product may contribute to hearing loss.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable surface where it
will not cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will
stand upright on the battery pack but may be easily knocked over.
