Make sure no one is nearby before nailing. Never attempt to nail from both the inside and outside at the same time. Nails may rip through andlor fly off, presenting a grave danger.
*Watch your footing and maintain your balance with the tool. Make sure there is no one below when working in high locations, and secure the air hose to prevent danger if there is sudden jerking or catching.

On rooftops and other high locations, nail as you move forward. It is easy to lose your footing if you nail while inching backward. When nailing against perpendicular sur- face, nail from the top to the bottom. You can perform nailing operations with less fatigue by doing so.
A nail will be bent or the tool can become jammed if you mistakenly nail on top of another nail or strike a knot in the wood. The nail may be thrown and hit someone, or the tool itself can react dangerously. Place the nails with care.
