Application Notes
1.Due to the limitations of a manual tool, this product can not drive straps com- pletely into all areas of wood. Avoid knots and dense, high resin areas.
2.If a fastening failure occurs, clear the strap and any material in the front of the maga- zine completely out. This will significantly reduce the chance of reoccurrence.
