Additional Safety Instructions For Nailers - Grizzly H5527 Owner's Manual

Additional Safety Instructions for Nailers/

HAND INJURIES: Do not place your
hands near the nail/staple point of entry.
A nail/staple can deflect and tear through
the surface of the workpiece, puncturing
your hand or fingers.
COMBUSTIBLE GASES: Never connect
the nailer/stapler to pressurized oxygen
or other combustible gases as an air
source. Only use filtered, lubricated, and
regulated compressed air.
SAFE HANDLING: Never point the nailer/
stapler at others! Do not keep the trigger
pulled when loading fasteners, carrying,
or holding tool. Carry the tool only by the
handle, never by any other part. Do not
carry the tool by the air hose. Disconnect
the nailer/stapler from the air hose when
going up and down ladders.
MODIFICATIONS: DO NOT modify this
tool or bypass the safety nose mecha-
nism.
COMPRESSED AIR RATING: Do not
connect the nailer/stapler to compressed
air that exceeds 120 PSI.

Staplers
HOSE USAGE: Make sure your air hose
is designed for the tool in use, is in good
condition, and is long enough to reach
your work without stretching. However,
an overly long air hose in the work area
may be a tripping hazard.
OPERATING QUESTIONS: If you are
not sure about the intended operation,
stop using the nailer/stapler. Seek formal
training.
CLEANING: Never use gasoline or
other flammable liquids to clean the
nailer; vapors in the nailer/stapler will
ignite by a spark and cause it to explode.
MAINTENANCE: Always disconnect air
from the nailer/stapler when servicing or
installing nails. During maintenance, a
nailer/stapler connected to air may fire
accidentally, causing serious personal
injury.
CHECK VALVE: Do not use a check
valve or any other fitting that allows air to
remain in the tool after it is disconnected
from the air source.
