WARNING – When using tools, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

General

a.To reduce the risks of electric shock, fire, and injury to persons, read all the instructions before using the tool.

Work area

a.Keep the work area clean and well lighted. Cluttered benches and dark areas increase the risks of electric shock, fire, and injury to persons.

b.Do not operate the tool in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust.

The tool is able to create sparks resulting in the ignition of the dust or fumes.

c.Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating the tool. Distractions are able to result in the loss of control of the tool.

Personal safety

a.Stay alert. Watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating the tool. Do not use the tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the tool increases the risk of injury to persons.

b.Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair increases the risk of injury to persons as a result of being caught in moving parts.

c.Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the trigger is released before connecting to the air supply. Do not carry the tool with your finger on the trigger or connect the tool to the air supply with the trigger pressed.

d.Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

e.Use safety equipment. A dust mask, non-skid safety shoes and a hard hat must be used for the applicable

conditions. Wear heavy-duty work gloves during use.

f.Always wear eye protection. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles with side shields.

g.Always wear hearing protection when using the tool. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise is able to

cause hearing loss.

h.Do not attach the hose or tool to your body. Attach the hose to the structure to reduce the risk of loss of balance if the hose shifts.

i.Always assume that the tool contains fasteners. Do not point the tool toward yourself or anyone whether it contains fasteners or not.

j.WARNING – Do not fire fastener on top of another fastener. This is able to cause the fastener to be deflected and hit someone, or cause the tool to react and result in a risk of injury to persons.

k.WARNING – Remove finger from the trigger when not driving fasteners.
