• Use caution while removing a jammed
fastener. The mechanism may be under
compression and the fastener may be
forcefully discharged while attempting to
free a jammed condition.
• Do not use this nailer for fastening
electrical cables. It is not designed for
electric cable installation and may damage
the insulation of electric cables thereby
causing electric shock or fire hazards.
Additional Nailer Safety
Warnings
WARNING: When using any nailer, all safety
precautions, as outlined below, should be
followed to avoid the risk of death or serious
injury. Read and understand all instructions
before operating the tool.
• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where
the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and
shock the operator.
• Actuating tool may result in flying
debris, collation material, or dust which
could harm operator’s eyes. Operator
and others in work area MUST wear safety
glasses with side shields. These safety
glasses must conform to ANSI Z87.1
requirements (approved glasses have “Z87”
printed or stamped on them. It is the
employer’s responsibility to enforce the use
of eye protection equipment by the tool
operator and other people in the work area.
(Fig. A)
• Always wear appropriate personal
hearing and other protection during
use. Under some conditions and duration
of use, noise from this product may
contribute to hearing loss. (Fig. A)
• Disconnect battery pack from the
tool when not in use. Always remove
battery pack and remove fasteners
from magazine before leaving the
area or passing the tool to another
operator. Do not carry tool to another
work area in which changing location
involves the use of scaffoldings, stairs,
ladders, and the like, with battery pack
connected. Do not make adjustments,
perform maintenance or clear jammed
fasteners while battery is in place.
• Do not remove, tamper with, or
otherwise cause the tool, trigger or
trigger lock-off, to become inoperable.
Do not tape or tie trigger in the ON position.
Do not remove spring from contact trip.
Make daily inspections for free movement of
trigger. Uncontrolled discharge could result.
• Inspect tool before use. Do not operate
a tool if any portion of the tool, trigger,
or trigger lock-off is inoperable,
disconnected, altered, or not working
properly. Damaged parts or missing parts
should be repaired or replaced before use.
Refer to Repairs.
• Do not alter or modify the tool in any
way.
• Always assume that the tool contains
fasteners.
• Do not point the tool at co-workers or
yourself at any time. No horseplay! Work
safe! Respect the tool as a working
implement. (Fig. B)
• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
When tool is not in use, it should be locked
in a safe place, out of the reach of children.
• Always use trigger lock-off when tool
is not in immediate use. Using the
trigger lock-off will prevent accidental
discharge. (Fig.M)
• Do not overreach. Maintain proper
footing and balance at all times. Loss
of balance may cause personal injury.
(Fig.C)
• Use the tool only for its intended use.
Do not discharge fasteners into open
air, concrete, stone, extremely hard
woods, knots or any material too
hard for the fastener to penetrate. Do
not use the body of the tool or top cap
as a hammer. Discharged fastener may
follow unexpected path and cause injury.
(Figs.D, F)
• Always keep fingers clear of contact
trip to prevent injury from inadvertent
release of the pusher (Fig. H)
• Refer to the Maintenance and Repairs
sections for detailed information on
the proper maintenance of the tool.
• Always operate the tool in a clean,
lighted area. Be sure the work surface
is clear of any debris and be careful not
to lose footing when working in elevated
environments such as rooftops.
• Do not drive fastener near edge of
material. The workpiece may split

causing the nail to ricochet, injuring you
or a co-worker. Be aware that the fastener
may follow the grain of the wood (shiner),
causing it to protrude unexpectedly from
the side of the work material. Drive the chisel
point of the fastener perpendicular to the
grain to reduce risk of injury. (Figs. E, F)
• Do not drive nails onto the heads of
other fasteners or with the tool at too
steep an angle. Personal injury from
strong recoil jammed nails, or ricocheted
nails may result. (Fig. G)
• Keep hands and body parts clear of
immediate work area. Hold workpiece
with clamps when necessary to keep hands
and body out of potential harm. Be sure
the workpiece is properly secured before
pressing the nailer against the material. The
contact trip may cause the work material to
shift unexpectedly. (Fig. H)
• Do not use tool in the presence of
flammable dust, gases or fumes. The
tool may produce a spark that could ignite
gases causing a fire. Driving a nail into
another nail may also cause a spark. (Fig. I)
• Keep face and body parts away from
back of the tool cap when working in
restricted areas. Sudden recoil can result
in impact to the body, especially when
nailing into hard or dense material. (Fig. J)
• Grip tool firmly to maintain control
while allowing tool to recoil away from
work surface as fastener is driven. In
Bump mode if contact trip is allowed to
recontact work surface before trigger is
released an unwanted fastener will be fired.
• Choice of triggering method is
important. Check the manual for triggering
options.
BUMP/SEQUENTIAL SELECTOR SWITCH
Sequential Action
(Fig. K)
• When using the tool in sequential
action, do not actuate the tool unless
the tool is placed firmly against the
workpiece.
Bump Action
(Fig. L)
• When using the tool in bump action,
be careful of unin tentional double fires
resulting from tool recoil. Unwanted
fasteners may be driven if the contact trip is
allowed to accidentally re-contact the work
surface.
