Basic Nailer Safety
In addition to the rules stated in the previ-
ous section, and those in the warning
boxes throughout this manual, please
observe the following safety tips for your
new nailer:
1. READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL
BEFORE OPERATING THE NAIL-
ER.
2. ALWAYS DISCONNECT AIR FROM
THE NAILER WHENEVER SERVIC-
ING OR INSTALLING NAILS. During
maintenance, a nailer connected to
air may fire accidentally, causing seri-
ous personal injury.
3. DO NOT PLACE HANDS NEAR
NAIL POINT OF ENTRY. Nail can
deflect and tear through the surface
of the workpiece, puncturing your
hand or fingers.
4. NEVER CONNECT THE NAILER TO
PRESSURIZED OXYGEN OR
OTHER COMBUSTIBLE GASES AS
A POWER SOURCE. Only use fil-
tered, lubricated, and regulated com-
pressed air.
5. NEVER USE GASOLINE OR
OTHER FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS TO
CLEAN THE NAILER. Vapors in the
tool will ignite by a spark and cause
the tool to explode.
6. DO NOT CARRY THE NAILER BY
ANY OTHER PART THAN THE
HANDLE, and do not carry the nailer
by the air hose.
7. DO NOT KEEP THE TRIGGER
PULLED ON THE SAFETY YOKE
MECHANISM WHEN CARRYING
OR HOLDING THE TOOL.
8. DO NOT USE A CHECK VALVE OR
ANY OTHER FITTING THAT
ALLOWS AIR TO REMAIN IN THE
TOOL.
Never point this nailer at yourself or
another person! Always pay attention
to the direction this nailer is pointed.
Use this tool with respect and caution
to lessen the possibility of operator or
bystander injury. Ignoring this warn-
ing may result in serious personal
injury.
