WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
RISK OF CUT OR BURNS
Improperly maintained tools and accessories can cause
serious injury.
Use only accessories identified by the manufacturer to
be used with specific tools.
Use of an accessory not intended for use with the
specific tools, increases the risk of injury to persons.
Maintain the tool with care.
Keep a cutting tool sharp and clean. A properly
maintained tool, with sharp cutting edges reduces the
risk of binding and is easier to control.

RISK OF INJURY (continued)
Using air tools to attach electrical wiring can result in
electrocution or death.
Never use nailer/staplers to attach electrical wiring
while energized.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded.
Fasteners coming in contact with hidden electrical
wiring could cause electrocution or death.
This tool is not provided with an insulated gripping
surface. Contact with a “live” wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and can result in
electrocution or death.
