21.Do not load fasteners with trigger or safety depressed, to prevent unintentional firing of a fastener. Fig. 13
22.Remove finger from trigger when not driving fasteners. Never carry tool with finger on trigger. Contact Actuation tools will fire a fastener if the safety mechanism is bumped while trigger is depressed. Fig. 14.
23.Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times when using or handling the tool.
24.Fire fasteners into work surface only: never into materials too hard to penetrate. Fig. 15.
25.Grip tool firmly to maintain control while allowing tool to recoil away from work surface as fastener is driven. With Contact Actuation tools an unwanted fastener will be fired if the safety mechanism is allowed to recontact work surface before trigger is released.
26.Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners, or with the tool at too steep an angle: the fasteners can ricochet causing personal injury. Fig. 15.
27.Do not drive fasteners close to the edge of the workpiece. The workpiece is likely to split allowing the fastener to fly free or ricochet causing personal injury. Fig. 16.
28.FOR TOOLS USED IN CONTACT ACTUATION MODE, Do not use on scaffoldings or ladders or for tasks in which changing location involves the use of scaffoldings, stairs, ladders, and the like. Do not use for specific tasks such as closing boxes or crates or fitting transportation safety systems on vehicles and wagons. Fig. 17.
