GENERAL OPERATIONAL PRECAUTIONS

1. Operate the power tool safely for correct uses.
Do not use the power tool for uses other than those
specified in this instructions.
2. For safe operation handle the power tool correctly.
Please follow the instructions given in this
instruction manual and correctly handle this tool so
as to ensure safe operation. Never let the tool be
use by children or people who do not know enough
to be able to handle it correctly, or let it be used by
people who cannot operate it correctly.
3. Confirm the safety of the workshop.
Keep unauthorized people away from the workshop.
Especially children should be kept away.
4. The right parts in the right places.
Do not remove any of the covers or screws. Keep
them in place as they have their functions.
Moreover, because it would be dangerous, never
make modifications to the tool or use it after making

Before using the tool, always check that no parts of
it are broken, that all screws are completely tight,
and that no parts are missing or rusty.
6. Excessive work could cause accidents.
Do not make tools and accessories work beyond
their abilities. Excessive work not only damages
the power tool but also is dangerous in itself.
7. Stop operation immediately if abnormalities are
noticed.
Stop operation if you notice abnormalities, or if the
power tool does not work properly; have the power
tool inspected and serviced.
8. Look after the power tool carefully.
If you drop or knock the power tool against things,
the outer frame may be deformed and cracks or
other kinds of damage may occur, so please handle
it with sufficient care. Also, do not scratch or engrave
signs on the power tool. Owing to high pressure air
inside the tool, cracks in the surface are dangerous.
Never use the power tool if a crack develops or if air
is escaping from a crack.
9. Take good care for a long life.
Always take good care of the power tool and keep it
clean.
10. Inspection at regular intervals is essential for safety.
Inspect the power tool at regular intervals so that
the power tool can be operated safety and efficiently

Ensure that the power tool is serviced by authorized
service center only, and that only genuine
replacement parts are used.

PRECAUTIONS ON USING NAILER
1. Safe operation through correct usage
This tool was designed for driving nails into wood
and similar materials. Use it for its intended purpose
only.
2. Make sure air pressure is within the rated range of
air pressure.
Please make sure that the air pressure is within a
range of 12 bar – 23 bar (170 ~ 320 psi.), and that
the air which is used is clean and dry. If the air
pressure is greater than 23 bar (320 psi.), the life of
the power tool will be shortened and dangerous
conditions could develop. Tools shall not be
connected to pressure which potentially exceeds
26 bar (370 psi.).
3. Never operate the equipment with high-pressure
gases other than compressed air.
Never use carbon dioxide, oxygen or another gas
from
circumstances.
4. Be careful of ignition and explosions.
Since sparks may fly during nailing, it is dangerous
to use this tool near lacquer, paint, benzine, thinner,
gasoline, gas, adhesives and similar inflammable
substances as they may ignite or explode. Under
no circumstances should this tool therefore be used
in the vicinity of such inflammable material.
5. Always wear eye protection (protective goggles).
When operating the power tool, always wear eye
protection, and ensure that surrounding people wear
eye protection too.
The possibility of fragments of the wire or plastic
linking the nails or nails that were not properly hit
entering the eye is a threat to sight. Eye protection
can be bought at any hardware store. Always wear
eye protection while operating this tool. Use either
eye protection or a wide vision mask over
prescription glasses.
Employers should always enforce the use of eye
protection equipment.
6. Protect your ears and head.
When engaged in nailing work please wear ear
mufflers and head protection. Also, depending on
condition, ensure that surrounding people also wear
ear mufflers and head protection.
7. Pay attention to those working close to you.
It would be very dangerous if nails that were not
properly driven in should hit other people.
Therefore, always pay attention to the safety of the
people around you when using this tool. Always
make sure that nobody's body, hands or feet are
close to the nail outlet.
8. Never point the nail outlet towards people.
Always assume the tool contains fasteners.
If the nail outlet is pointed towards people, serious
accidents may be caused if you mistakenly discharge
the tool. When connecting and disconnecting the
hose, during nail loading or similar operations, be
sure the nail outlet is not pointed towards anyone
(including yourself). Even when no nails are loaded
at all, it is dangerous to discharge the tool while
pointing it at someone, so never attempt to do so.
No horseplay. Respect the tool as a working
implement.
