SAFETY — Continued
WARNING
8.STORE STAPLER PROPERLY.
When not in use, the Stapler should be stored in a dry place. Keep out of reach of children. Lock the storage area.
9.KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN.
Cluttered areas invite injuries. Clear all work areas of unnecessary tools, debris, furniture, etc.
10.NEVER USE IN PRESENCE OF FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS OR GASES.
The Stapler produces sparks during operation. Never use the Stapler in sites containing lacquer, paint, benzine, thinner, gasoline, gases, adhesive agents, and other materials which are combustible or explosive.
11.KEEP VISITORS AWAY.
Do not let visitors handle the Stapler.
All visitors should be kept safely away from work area.
12.DRESS PROPERLY.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in moving parts.
Rubber gloves and nonskid footwear are recommended when working outdoors.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
13.NEVER USE NON RELIEVING COUPLER ON STAPLER.
If a non relieving coupler is used on the Stapler, the Stapler can remain charged with air after disconnecting and thus will be able to drive a fastener even after disconnecting.
The Stapler and air hose must have a hose coupling such that all pressure is removed from the Stapler when the coupling joint is disconnected.
14.CHECK PUSH LEVER BEFORE USE.
Make sure the push lever operates properly. (The push lever may be called “Safety”.) Never use the Stapler unless the push lever is operating properly, otherwise the Stapler could drive a fastener unexpectedly. Do not tamper with or remove the push lever, otherwise the push lever becomes inoperable.
15.KEEP ALL SCREWS AND COVERS TIGHTLY IN PLACE.
Keep all screws and covers tightly mounted. Check their condition periodically.
Never use the Stapler if parts are missing or damaged.
16.DO NOT LOAD FASTENERS WITH TRIGGER PULLED OR PUSH LEVER DEPRESSED.
When loading fasteners into the Stapler or when connecting the air hose,
1)do not pull the trigger;
2)do not depress the push lever; and
3)keep the Stapler pointed downward.
17.KEEP HANDS AND FEET AWAY FROM FIRING HEAD DURING USE.
Never place your hands or feet closer than 8 inches (200 mm) from the firing head.
A serious injury can result if the fasteners are deflected by the workpiece, or are driven away from the point of entry.
18.PLACE STAPLER PROPERLY ON WORKPIECE.
Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners or with the Stapler at too steep of an angle; the fasteners can ricochet and hurt someone.
19.BE CAREFUL OF DOUBLE FIRE DUE TO RECOIL.
If the push lever is unintentionally allowed to re- contact the workpiece following recoil, an unwanted fastener will be driven.
In order to avoid this undesirable double fire,
1)do not push the Stapler on the workpiece with strong force;
2)take the Stapler completely away from the workpiece using recoil, and keep the push lever away from the workpiece until the next desirable shot; and
3)pull the trigger and release it QUICKLY when performing intermittent operation (trigger fire).
20.DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS INTO THIN BOARDS OR NEAR CORNERS AND EDGES OF WORKPIECE.
The fasteners can be driven through or away from the workpiece and hit someone.
21.NEVER DRIVE FASTENERS FROM BOTH SIDES OF A WALL AT THE SAME TIME.
The fasteners can be driven into and through the wall and hit a person on the opposite side.
22.CHECK FOR LIVE WIRES.
Avoid the risk of severe electrical shock by checking for live electrical wires that may be hidden by walls, floors or ceilings. Turn off the breaker switch to ensure there are no live wires.
23.NEVER CARRY STAPLER BY HOSE.
