Additional Safety Instructions for Nailers

1. HAND INJURIES: Do not place
your hands near the nail point
of entry. A nail can deflect and
tear through the surface of the
workpiece, puncturing your hand or
fingers.
2. COMBUSTIBLE GASES: Never
connect the nailer to pressurized
oxygen or other combustible gases
as a power source. Only use fil-
tered, lubricated, and regulated
compressed air.
3. CLEANING: Never use gasoline or
other flammable liquids to clean the
nailer; vapors in the nailer will ignite
by a spark and cause it to explode.
4. OPERATING QUESTIONS: If you
are not sure about the intended
operation, stop using the nailer.
Seek formal training or research
books or magazines that specialize
in pneumatic tools.

5. 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.
6. MAINTENANCE: Always discon-
nect air from the nailer when servic-
ing. During maintenance, a nailer
connected to air may fire acci-
dentally, causing serious personal
injury.
7. COMPRESSED
Do not connect the nailer to com-
pressed air that exceeds 120 PSI.
8. CHECK VALVE: Do not use a
check valve or any other fitting that
allows air to remain in the tool.
Operating this nailer can propel
objects into the air, causing imme-
diate eye damage. To protect your-
self, always wear American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) approved
safety glasses or goggles when oper-
ating this equipment. In addition, this
nailer discharges at up to 85-90 deci-
bels. To protect your hearing, always
wear ANSI approved ear protection
when operating this nailer.
