Additional Safety Instructions for Nailers
1.HAND INJURIES: Do not place your hands near the nail point of entry. A nail can deflect and tear through the surface of the workpiece, puncturing your hand or fingers.
2.COMBUSTIBLE GASES: Never connect the nailer to pressur- ized oxygen or other combustible gases as a power source. Only use filtered, lubricated, and regu- lated compressed air.
3.SAFE HANDLING: Never point the nailer at others! Do not keep the trigger pulled when loading fasteners, carrying, or holding tool. Carry the nailer only by the handle, never by any other part. Do not carry the nailer by the air hose. Disconnect the nailer from the air hose when going up and down ladders.
4.HOSE: Make sure your air hose is designed for the tool in use, is in good condition, and is long enough to reach your work with- out stretching. However, an overly long air hose in the work area may be a tripping hazard.
5.COMPRESSED AIR RATING: Do not connect the nailer to compressed air that exceeds 120 PSI.
6.CHECK VALVE: Do not use a check valve or any other fitting that allows air to remain in the tool.
7.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.
8.OPERATING QUESTIONS: If you are not sure about the intended operation, stop using the nailer. Seek formal training or research sources that specialize in pneumatic tools.
9.MAINTENANCE: Always disconnect air from the nailer when servicing or installing nails. During maintenance, a nailer connected to air may fire accidentally, causing serious per- sonal injury.
