manual abstract
n Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools. n Use only fasteners that are recommended for your model. • Keep the tool and its handle dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any strong solvents to clean your tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and deterioration of the enclosure plastic. SERVICE n Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury. n When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance instructions may create a risk of injury. 3 SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES n Know your power tool. Read operator’s manual carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious injury. n Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Everyday glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of eye injury. n Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury. n Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during extended periods of operation. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury. n Make sure the hose is free of obstructions or snags. Entangled or snarled hoses can cause loss of balance or footing and may become damaged. n Use the tool only for its intended use. Do not discharge fasteners into open air. n Do not drive fasteners near edge of material. The workpiece may split causing the fastener to ricochet, injuring you or a co-worker. Be aware that the nail may follow the grain of the wood, causing it to protrude unexpectedly from the side of the work material. n Keep hands and body parts clear of immediate work area. Hold workpiece with clamps when necessary to keep hands and body out of potential harm. Be sure the workpiece is properly secured before pressing the nailer against the material. The workpiece contact may cause the work material to shift unexpectedly. n Keep face and body parts away from back of the tool cap when working in restricted areas. Sudden recoil can result in impact to the body, especially when nailing into hard or dense material. Use the pneumatic tool only for the purpose for which it was designed. n ..Never use this tool in a manner that could cause a fastener to be directed toward anything other than the workpiece. n ..Do not use the tool as a hammer. n ..Always carry the tool by the handle. Never carry the tool by the air hose. Do not alter or modify this tool from the original design or function without approval from the manufacturer. n ..Always be aware that misuse and improper handling of this tool can cause injury to yourself and others. Never clamp or tape the trigger or workpiece contact in an actuated position. n ..Never leave a tool unattended with the air hose attached. n ..Do not operate this tool if it does not contain a legible warning label. n ..Do not continue to use a tool that leaks air or does not function properly. OPERATION n Always assume that the tool contains fasteners. n Do not carry the tool from place to place holding the trigger. Accidental discharge could result. n Always handle the tool with care: • Respect the tool as a working implement. • 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. n Choice of triggering method is important. Check manual for triggering options. n Do not point the tool toward yourself or anyone whether it contains fasteners or not. n Do not actuate the tool unless you intend to drive a fastener into the workpiece. n During normal use the tool will recoil immediately after driving a fastener. This is a normal function of the tool. Do not attempt to prevent the recoil by holding the nailer against the work. Restriction to the recoil can result in a second fastener being driven from the nailer. Grip the handle firmly and let the tool do the work. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury. n Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners or with the tool at an overly steep angle as this may cause deflection of fasteners which could cause injury. n Do not drive fasteners close to the edge of the workpiece as the wood may split, allowing the fastener to be deflected possibly causing ...
