Air Supply And Connections; Loading Tool - RIDGID R138HPF Manuel D'utilisation

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
 Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners or with
the tool at an overly steep angle as this may cause
deflection of fasteners which could cause injury.
 Do not drive fasteners close to the edge of the
workpiece as the wood may split, allowing the
fastener to be deflected possibly causing injury.

AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS

 Do not use oxygen, combustible gases or bottled
gases as a power source for this tool as tool will
explode, possibly causing injury or death.
 Do not use with an air compressor which can
potentially exceed 200 psi as tool may burst, possibly
causing injury.
 The connector on the tool must not hold pressure
when air supply is disconnected. If an incorrect fitting
is used, the tool can remain charged with air after
disconnecting and thus will be able to drive a fastener
even after the air line is disconnected, possibly causing
injury.
 Always disconnect air supply:
• Before making adjustments
• When servicing the tool
• When clearing a jam
• When tool is not in use
• When moving to a different work area, as accidental
actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.

the operating controls is activated.
When loading tool:
 Never place a hand or any part of body in fastener
discharge area of tool.
 Never point tool at anyone.

contact as accidental actuation may occur, possibly
causing injury.
