Wear hearing protection to protect your ears against
•
exhaust noise and head protection. Also wear light
but not loose clothing. Sleeves should be buttoned
or rolled up. No necktie should be worn.
Work area safety
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
•
areas invite accidents.
Do not operate the tool in explosive atmospheres,
•
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases
and
or dust. Operating the tool can create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating
•
the tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Illuminate the work area sufficiently.
•
There may be local regulations concerning noise
•
which must be complied with by keeping noise
levels within prescribed limits. In certain cases,
shutters should be used to contain noise.
Safety devices
Make sure all safety systems are in working order
•
before operation. The tool must not operate if only
the trigger is pulled or if only the contact arm is
pressed against the wood. It must work only when
both actions are performed. Test for possible faulty
operation with fasteners unloaded and the pusher
in fully pulled position.
Do not play with the contact element: it prevents
•
accidental discharge, so it must be kept on and not
removed. Securing the trigger in the ON position is
also very dangerous. Never attempt to fasten the
trigger. Do not operate a tool if any portion of the
tool operating controls is inoperable, disconnected,
altered, or not working properly.
Do not attempt to keep the contact element
•
depressed with tape or wire. Death or serious injury
may occur.
Always check contact element as instructed in this
•
manual. fasteners may be driven accidentally if the
safety mechanism is not working correctly.
When not operating the tool, always lock the trigger
•
by turning the change lever to the LOCK position.
