Additional Safety Instructions for Nailers
1.HAND AND FOOT INJURIES: Do not place your hands or feet near the nail point of entry. A nail can deflect and tear through the surface of the workpiece, puncturing your hand or foot.
2.COMPRESSED AIR RATING: Do not connect the nailer to compressed air that exceeds 120 PSI.
3.ACTUATING MECHANISM: Be careful not to bump the actuating mechanism when carrying or hold- ing the tool while connected to air. If bumped, the tool may accidentally shoot in a dangerous direction.
4.SAFE HANDLING: Never point the nailer at others! Carry the nailer only by the handle, never by any other part. Do not carry the nailer by the air hose.
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 haz- ard.
6.HAMMER SAFETY: DO NOT use a hammer with a damaged handle or a loose head. Make sure nobody is standing close enough to be hit when you swing the hammer.
7.NAILING: Avoid driving one nail on top of another. The nail may deflect and cause injury.
8.AIR SUPPLY: Disconnect the air supply before installing nails, clearing a jam, moving to another work area, performing maintenance, or when the tool is not in use. A nailer connected to air may fire accidentally, causing serious personal injury. DO NOT use a check valve or any other fitting that allows air to remain in the tool.
9.COMBUSTIBLE GASES: Never con- nect the nailer to pressurized oxy- gen or other combustible gases as a power source. Only use regulated compressed air.
10.CLEANING: Never use gasoline or other flammable liquids to clean the nailer; vapors in the nailer will ignite by a spark and cause it to explode.
11.TOOL SERVICE: If the nailer is leak- ing air, damaged, or not working cor- rectly, DO NOT use before repairing.
12.OPERATING QUESTIONS: If you are not sure about the intended oper- ation, stop using the nailer. Seek formal training or research books or magazines that specialize in pneu- matic tools.
