SAFETY — Continued
WARNING
11. KEEP VISITORS AWAY.
Do not let visitors handle the Stapler.
All visitors should be kept safely away from work
area.
12. DRESS PROPERLY.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can
be caught in moving parts.
Rubber gloves and nonskid footwear are
recommended when working outdoors.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
13. NEVER USE NON RELIEVING COUPLER ON
STAPLER.
If a non relieving coupler is used on the Stapler,
the Stapler can remain charged with air after
disconnecting and thus will be able to drive a
fastener even after disconnecting.
The Stapler and air hose must have a hose
coupling such that all pressure is removed from
the Stapler when the coupling joint is
disconnected.
14. CHECK PUSH LEVER BEFORE USE.
Make sure the push lever operates properly. (The
push lever may be called “Safety”.) Never use the
Stapler unless the push lever is operating properly,
otherwise the Stapler could drive a fastener
unexpectedly. Do not tamper with or remove the
push lever, otherwise the push lever becomes
inoperable.
15. KEEP ALL SCREWS AND COVERS TIGHTLY IN
PLACE.
Keep all screws and covers tightly mounted. Check
their condition periodically.
Never use the Stapler if parts are missing or
damaged.
16. DO NOT LOAD FASTENERS WITH TRIGGER
PULLED OR PUSH LEVER DEPRESSED.
When loading fasteners into the Stapler or when
connecting the air hose,
1) do not pull the trigger;
2) do not depress the push lever; and
3) keep the Stapler pointed downward.
17. KEEP FACE, HANDS AND FEET AWAY FROM
FIRING HEAD AT ALL TIMES.
Never place your face, hands or feet closer than 8
inches (200 mm) from the firing head.
A serious injury can result if the fasteners are
deflected by the workpiece, or are driven away
from the point of entry.
18. PLACE STAPLER PROPERLY ON WORKPIECE.
Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners or
with the Stapler at too steep of an angle; the
fasteners can ricochet and hurt someone.
19. BEFORE STARTING WORK, CHECK THE
FASTENING OPERATION SWITCHING DEVICE.
This Hitachi stapler includes a fastening operation
switching device.
Before starting work, check the setting of the
operation switching device.
If the switching device is not set properly, the
stapler will not operate correctly.
20. BE CAREFUL OF DOUBLE FIRE DUE TO RECOIL.
If the push lever is unintentionally allowed to re-
contact the workpiece following recoil, an
unwanted fastener will be driven.
In order to avoid this undesirable double fire,
ࠗ
Intermittent operation (Trigger firing)
1) Set the switching device to SINGLE
SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM
.
2) Pull the trigger rapidly and firmly.
ࠗ
Continuous operation (Push lever firing)
1) Do not press the stapler against the workpiece
with excessive force.
2) Separate the stapler from the workpiece as it
recoils after fastening.
21. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS INTO THIN BOARDS
OR NEAR CORNERS AND EDGES OF WORKPIECE.
The fasteners can be driven through or away from
the workpiece and hit someone.
22. NEVER DRIVE FASTENERS FROM BOTH SIDES OF
A WALL AT THE SAME TIME.
The fasteners can be driven into and through the
wall and hit a person on the opposite side.
23. CHECK FOR LIVE WIRES.
Avoid the risk of severe electrical shock by checking
for live electrical wires that may be hidden by walls,
floors or ceilings. Turn off the breaker switch to
ensure there are no live wires.
24. NEVER CARRY STAPLER BY HOSE.
25. DO NOT OVERREACH.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times
26. NEVER USE STAPLER WHICH IS DEFECTIVE OR
OPERATING ABNORMALLY.
If the Stapler appears to be operating unusually,
making strange noises, or otherwise appears
defective, stop using it immediately and arrange
for repairs by a Hitachi authorized service center.
27. DO NOT DISCONNECT AIR HOSE FROM STAPLER
WITH FINGER ON TRIGGER.
The Stapler can fire when re-connected to an air
supply.
