Safety Information


WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to the State
of California 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: Always wear proper personal hearing
protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)
during use. Under some conditions and duration

WARNING: (Air and Supply)
• Do not use oxygen, combustible gases, or bottled
gases as a power source for this tool as tool may
explode, possibly causing injury.
• Do not use supply sources which can potentially
exceed 200 p.s.i.g. (14 kg/cm
possibly causing injury.
• The connector on the tool must not hold pressure
when air supply is disconnected. If a wrong fitting
is used, the tool can remain charged with air
after disconnecting and thus will be able to drive
a fastener even after the air line is disconnected
possibly causing injury.
• Do not pull the primary or secondary trigger while
connected to the air supply as the tool may cycle,
possibly causing injury.
• Always disconnect air supply: 1.) Before making
adjustments; 2.) When servicing the tool; 3.) When
clearing a jam; 4.) When tool is not in use; 5.) When
moving to a different work area, as accidental
actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.

WARNING: When loading tool:
• Never place a hand or any part of body in pin
discharge area of tool.
• Never point tool at anyone.
• Do not pull the primary or secondary trigger
as accidental actuation may occur, possibly
causing injury.

WARNING: When operating the tool:
• Always handle the tool with care:
-
Never engage in horseplay.
- Never pull the trigger unless nose is directed
toward the work.
- Keep others a safe distance from the tool while
tool is in operation as accidental actuation
may occur, possibly causing injury.
• The operator must not hold the secondary trigger
pulled except during fastening operation as
serious injury could result if the tool accidentally
contacts someone or something, causing the tool
to cycle.
• Keep hands and body away from the discharge
area of the tool. The tool may bounce from the
recoil of driving a pin and an unwanted second
pin may be driven possibly causing injury.
• Check operation of the secondary trigger
mechanism frequently. Do not use the tool if
the secondary trigger is not working correctly
as accidental driving of a pin may result. Do
not interfere with the proper operation of the
secondary trigger mechanism.
• Do not drive pins on top of other pins or with the
tool at an overly steep angle as this may cause
deflection of fasteners which could cause injury.
