WARNING
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,
⅜ Intermittent operation (Trigger firing)
1) Set the switching device to SINGLE ACTUATION MECHANISM.
2) Pull the trigger rapidly and firmly.
⅜ Continuous operation (Push lever firing)
1) Do not press the nailer against the wood with excessive force.
2) Separate the nailer from the wood 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 NAILER BY HOSE.
25. DO NOT OVERREACH.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
26. 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.
27. DO NOT DISCONNECT AIR HOSE FROM NAILER WITH FINGER ON TRIGGER.
The Nailer can fire when re-connected to an air supply.
28. DISCONNECT AIR HOSE FROM NAILER WHEN:
1) doing maintenance and inspection;
2) loading fasteners;
3) turning the adjuster and top cover;
4) attaching or removing the nose cap;
5) clearing a jam;
6) it is not in use;
7) leaving work area;
8) moving it to another location; and
9) 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 fasteners from the Nailer.
The Nailer should never be left unattended since people who are not familiar with the
Nailer might handle it and injure the themselves.
29. STAY ALERT.
Watch what you are doing. Use common sense.
Do not operate the Nailer when you are tired.
The Nailer should never be used by you if you are under the influence of alcohol, drugs
or medication that makes you drowsy.
