These safety instructions apply for fastening tools with and without magazine.
General instructions concerning personal safety
▶ Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when working. Do not use the tool while
you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating the tool may result in serious personal injury.
▶ Wear your personal protective equipment and always wear protective glasses. Depending on the
application and type of tool in use, wearing personal protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-slip
safety footwear, hard hat and ear protection reduces the risk of injury.
▶ Always wear gloves if cleaning or maintenance has to be carried out before the tool has been allowed to
cool down.
▶ Wear suitable ear protection (see noise information in the technical data section). Fasteners are driven
through ignition of a gas/air mixture. The resulting noise exposure may cause damage to the hearing.
Other persons in the vicinity should also wear suitable hearing protection.
▶ Adopt the correct posture when working. Maintain proper footing and balance at all times. This will give
you better control of the product in unexpected situations.

working conditions and the work to be performed into account. Use of equipment for applications other
than those intended can result in hazardous situations.
