STAPLER SAFETY WARNINGS
■
Always assume that
fasteners. Careless handling of the stapler can result
in unexpected firing of fasteners and personal injury.
■
Do not point the product towards yourself or
anyone nearby. Unexpected triggering will discharge
the fastener causing an injury.
■
Do not actuate the product unless the product is
placed firmly against the workpiece. If the tool is
not in contact with the workpiece, the fastener may be
deflected away from your target.
■
Disconnect the product from the power source
when the fastener jams in the product. While
removing a jammed fastener, the stapler may be
accidentally activated if it is plugged in.
■
Use caution while removing a jammed fastener.
The mechanism may be under compression and the
fastener may be forcefully discharged while attempting
to free a jammed condition.
■
Do not use the stapler for fastening electrical
cables. It is not designed for electric cable installation
and may damage the insulation of electric cables
thereby causing electric shock or fire hazards.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
■
Always be aware that misuse and improper handling
of the product can cause injury to yourself and others.
■
The product is designed for single-hand use. Do not
hold the product by the front of the magazine. Do not
put hands, head, or other parts of your body near the
bottom of the magazine where the fastener exits the
product, as serious personal injury could be caused.
■
Always ensure that the workpiece contact is fully
positioned above the workpiece. Positioning the
workpiece contact only partially above the workpiece
could cause the fastener to miss the workpiece
completely and result in serious personal injury.
■
Do not drive fasteners near edge of material. The
workpiece may split causing the fastener to ricochet,
injuring you or a coworker. Be aware that the fastener
may follow the grain of the wood, causing it to protrude
unexpectedly from the side of the work material or
deflect, possibly causing injury.
■
Keep hands and body parts clear of immediate work
area. Hold workpiece with clamps when necessary to
keep hands and body out of potential harm. Be sure
the workpiece is properly secured before pressing the
fastener against the material. The workpiece contact
may cause the work material to shift unexpectedly.
■
Keep face and body parts away from back of the tool
cap when working in restricted areas. Sudden recoil
can result in impact to the body, especially when
stapling into hard or dense material.
■
During normal use the product will recoil immediately
after driving a fastener. This is a normal function of
the product. Do not attempt to prevent the recoil by
holding the product against the work. Restriction to the
recoil can result in a second fastener being driven from
the product. Grip the handle firmly, let the product do
the work and do not place second hand on top of the
product or near exhaust at any time. Failure to heed this
warning can result in serious personal injury.
■
Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners or with
the product at an overly steep angle as this may cause
deflection of fasteners which could cause injury.
■
Always check the work area for hidden wiring, gas lines,
water lines, etc., before using the product on such work
area.
■
The driving depth of the fastener may be adjusted
beyond air pressure. It is advisable to test the depth on
a scrap workpiece to determine the required depth for
the application.
■
Only fasteners matching the description in the product
specifications table can be used with the product.
Using incorrect fasteners may lead to jamming or other
malfunctions.
DEPTH ADJUSTMENT SAFETY WARNINGS
■
Always remove the battery before adjusting the depth
of drive.
■
Do not pull back on the depth adjustment knob. The
knob is designed to be rotated.
■
Do not press the trigger while adjusting the depth of
drive knob.
