Additional Safety Instructions for Nailers and
Staplers
1.HAND INJURIES: Do not place your hands near the nail/staple point of entry. A nail/staple can deflect and tear through the surface of the workpiece, puncturing your hand or fingers.
2.COMBUSTIBLE GASES: Never connect the nailer/stapler to pres- surized oxygen or other combustible gases as a power source. Only use filtered, lubricated, and regulated compressed air.
3.SAFE HANDLING: Never point the nailer/stapler at others! Do not keep the trigger pulled when loading fasteners, carrying, or holding tool. Carry the nailer/stapler only by the handle, never by any other part. Do not carry the nailer/stapler by the air hose. Disconnect the nailer/stapler from the air hose when going up and down ladders.
4.CLEANING: Never use gasoline or other flammable liquids to clean the nailer/stapler; vapors in the nailer/ stapler will ignite by a spark and cause it to explode.
5.HOSE USAGE: Make sure your air hose is designed for the tool in use, is in good condition, and is long enough to reach your work without stretching. However, an overly long air hose in the work area may be a tripping hazard.
6.OPERATING QUESTIONS: If you are not sure about the intended operation, stop using the nailer/ stapler. Seek formal training or research books or magazines that specialize in pneumatic tools.
7.MAINTENANCE: Always discon- nect air from the nailer/stapler when servicing or installing nails or staples. During maintenance, a nailer/stapler connected to air may fire accidentally, causing serious personal injury.
8.COMPRESSED AIR RATING: Do not connect the nailer/stapler to compressed air that exceeds 120 PSI.
9.CHECK VALVE: Do not use a check valve or any other fitting that allows air to remain in the tool.
