WARNING
20. KEEP FACE, HANDS AND FEET AWAY FROM
FIRING HEAD AT ALL TIMES.
Never place your face, hands or feet near the firing
head.
A serious injury can result if the nails are deflected by
the workpiece, or are driven away from the point of
entry.
21. PLACE NAILER PROPERLY ON WORKPIECE.
Do not drive nails on top of other nails or with the
Nailer at too steep of an angle; the nails can ricochet
and hurt someone.
22. DO NOT DRIVE NAILS INTO THIN BOARDS OR
NEAR CORNERS AND EDGES OF WORKPIECE.
The nails can be driven through or away from the
workpiece and hit someone.
23. NEVER DRIVE NAILS FROM BOTH SIDES OF A
WALL AT THE SAME TIME.
The nails can be driven into and through the wall and
hit a person on the opposite side.
24. 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.
25. NEVER CARRY NAILER BY HOSE.
26. DO NOT OVERREACH.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
27. NEVER USE NAILER WHICH IS DEFECTIVE OR
OPERATING ABNORMALLY.
If the Nailer 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.
28. DO NOT DISCONNECT AIR HOSE FROM NAILER
WITH FINGER ON TRIGGER.
The Nailer can fire when re-connected to an air supply.

1) doing maintenance and inspection;
2) clearing a jam;
3) it is not in use;
4) leaving work area;
5) moving it to another location; and
6) handing it to another person.
Never attempt to clear a jam or repair the Nailer
unless you have disconnected air hose from the Nailer
and removed all remaining nails from the Nailer.

Never allow the Nailer to be operated by children,
individuals who have not reviewed this manual.
32. NEVER USE NAILER FOR APPLICATIONS OTHER

33. HANDLE NAILER CAREFULLY.
Because of high air pressure in the Nailer, cracks in
the surface are dangerous.
To avoid this, do not drop the Nailer or strike the
Nailer against hard surfaces; and do not scratch or
engrave signs on the Nailer. Handle the Nailer
carefully.
34. MAINTAIN NAILER WITH CARE.
Keep the Nailer clean and lubricated for better and
