Basic Stapler 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 stapler:

1.READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING THE STA- PLER.

2.ALWAYS DISCONNECT AIR FROM THE STAPLER whenever servicing or installing staples. During mainte- nance, a stapler connected to air may fire accidentally, causing serious per- sonal injury.

3.DO NOT PLACE HANDS NEAR STAPLE POINT OF ENTRY. Staple can deflect and tear through the sur- face of the workpiece, puncturing your hand or fingers.

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

5.NEVER USE GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS TO CLEAN THE STAPLER. Vapors in the tool will ignite by a spark and cause the tool to explode.

6.DO NOT CARRY THE STAPLER BY ANY OTHER PART THAN THE HANDLE, and do not carry the sta- pler 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.
