• Donotoverreach.Maintain proper footing and balance
at all times. Loss of balance may cause personal injury.
(Fig. K)
• Make sure hose is free of obstructions or snags.
Entangled or snarled hoses can cause loss of balance
or footing.
• 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 fasteners may follow unex-
pected path and cause injury. (Fig. L)
• Always keep fingersclearofcontact trip to prevent
injury from inadvertent release of nails. (Fig. M)
• 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 fasteners near edge of material. The
workpiece may split causing the fastener to ricochet,
injuring you or a co-worker. Be aware that the nail may
follow the grain of the wood (shiner), causing it to protrude
unexpectedly from the side of the work material. Drive the
nail perpendicular to the grain to reduce risk of injury. (Fig. N)
• 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 fasteners, or ricocheted
nails may result. (Fig. O)
• Beawareofmaterialthicknesswhenusingthenailer.
A protruding nail may cause injury.
• Be aware that when the tool is being utilized at
pressures on the high end of its operating range,
nails can be driven completely through thin or very
soft work material. Make sure the pressure in the
compressor is set so that nails are set into the
material and not pushed completely through. (Fig. P)
• 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. Q)
• 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. R)
