Basic Nailer Safety

In addition to the rules stated in the previ- ous section, and those in the warning boxes throughout this manual, please observe the following safety tips for your new nailer:

1.READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING THE NAIL- ER.

2.ALWAYS DISCONNECT AIR FROM THE NAILER whenever servicing, carrying, or installing nails. During maintenance, a nailer connected to air may fire accidentally, causing seri- ous personal injury.

3.DO NOT PLACE HANDS NEAR NAIL POINT OF ENTRY. Nail can deflect and be driven through the sur- face of the workpiece, puncturing your hand or fingers.

4.NEVER CONNECT THE NAILER TO PRESSURIZED OXYGEN OR OTHER COMBUSTIBLE GASES as a power source. Only use filtered, lubricated, and regulated compressed air.

5.ALWAYS KEEP ANY BYSTANDERS BEHIND NAILER OR AWAY FROM AREA DURING USE. Nails may be driven completely though wood and could become dan- gerous projectiles.

6.DO NOT CARRY THE NAILER BY ANY OTHER PART THAN THE HANDLE, and do not carry the nailer by the air hose.

7.DO NOT KEEP THE TRIGGER PULLED ON THE SAFETY YOKE MECHANISM WHEN CARRYING OR HOLDING THE TOOL.

8.DO NOT USE A CHECK VALVE OR ANY OTHER FITTING that allows air to remain in the tool.
