potentially exceeds 200 PSI (13.7 BAR).
10. Only use air hose that is rated for a
maximum working pressure of at least 150
PSI (10.3 BAR) or 150% of the maximum
system pressure, which ever is greater.

fasteners. No horseplay. Respect the tool
as a working implement. Fig. 11.
19. Operator and bystanders wear hard hat
to safeguard against possible injuries. Fig.

driving fasteners. Never carry tool with finger
on trigger. In “Contact Actuation Mode” tool
will fire a fastener if safety is bumped while
trigger is depressed. Fig. 14.
