EYE PROTECTION
Which conforms to ANSI/ CE specifications and provides protection against flying particles both from
the FRONT and SIDE should ALWAYS be worn by the operator and others in the work area when
connecting to air supply, loading, operating, or servicing this tool. Eye protection is required to guard
against flying fasteners and debris, which could cause severe eye injury. The employer and/or user must
ensure that proper eye protection is worn. Eye protection equipment must conform to the requirements
of the ANSI Z87.1 and 89/686/EEC, and provide both frontal and side protection.
NOTE
Non-side shielded spectacles and face shields alone do not provide adequate protection.
BEFORE HANDLING OR OPERATING THIS TOOL
．Read and understand the warnings contained in this manual.
．Refer to "tool specifications" in this manual to identify the operating system on your tool.
There are three available systems in these tools :
1. Contact Trip
(available system on : PN100-CT, PN100B-CT, PN100CP-CT, PN100-TS-CT,
PN100EPAL-CT PN130B-CT)
The common operating procedure on "Contact Trip" tools is for the operator to contact the workpiece to actuate the trip
mechanism while keeping the trigger pulled, thus driving a fastener each time the workpiece is contacted. This will allow
rapid fastener placement on many jobs, such as sheathing, decking, and pallet assembly. All pneumatic tools are subject to
recoil when driving fasteners. The tool may bounce, releasing the trip, and if unintentionally allowed to recontact the work
surface with the trigger still actuated (finger still holding trigger pulled) an unwanted second fastener will be driven.
WARNING
The operator must not hold the trigger on contact trip tools except during fastening operation, as serious injury could result
if the trip accidentally contacts someone or something, causing the tool to cycle.
WARNING
Keep hands and body away from the discharge area of the tool. A contact trip tool may bounce from the recoil of driving a
fastener and an unwanted second fastener may be driven, causing injury.
2. Sequential Trip
PN100EPAL-ST PN130B-ST)
The Sequential Trip requires the operator to hold the tool against the work before pulling the trigger. This makes accurate
fastener placement easier, for instance on framing, toe nailing, and crating applications. The Sequential Trip allows exact
fastener location without the possibility of driving a second fastener on recoil, as described under "Contact Trip". The
Sequential Trip Tool has a positive safety advantage because it will not accidentally drive a fastener if the tool is contacted
against the workpiece – or anything else – while the operator is holding the trigger pulled.
3. Remote Fire
(available system on : PN100PAL, PN100BPAL, PN130BPAL)
The Remote fire model is cycle by actuation of remote valve for mounted machine.
(available system on : PN100-ST, PN100B-ST, PN100CP-ST, PN100-TS-ST,
