sAFeTY PreCAuTioNs For NAiler
1. USE CLEAN, DRY, REGULATED, COMPRESSED AIR at 60 to 100 psi / 413
to 690 kPa / 4.13 to 6.9 bar.
2. DO NOT CONNECT TOOL to pressure which potentially exceeds 200 psi /
1379 kPa / 13.8 bar.
3. AIR HOSE Only use hose that is rated for a minimum working pressure of 150
psi or 150% of the maximum system pressure, whichever is greater.
4. NEVER USE OXYGEN, CARBON DIOXIDE, combustible gases or any other
bottled gas as a power source for this tool. Explosion and serious personal
injury could result.
5. COUPLINGS Connect tool to air supply hose with a 1/4" NPT coupling that
removes all pressure from the tool when the coupling is disconnnected.
6. DISCONNECT TOOL FROM AIR SUPPLY hose before doing any disassem-
bly, maintenance, clearing a jammmed fastener, leaving the work area, mov-
ing the tool to another location, or handing the tool to another person.
7. NEVER USE A TOOL that is leaking air, has missing or damaged parts, or
requires repair. Make sure all screws and caps are securely tightened.
8. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. Never use a tool if safety, trigger, or spring
are inoperable, missing or damaged. Do not alter or remove safety, trig-
ger, or springs. Make daily inspections for the free movement of trigger and
safety mechanism.
9. REPLACEMENT PARTS. When servicing, use only identical Concept re-
placement parts and fasteners recommended by us.
10. TAKE CARE WHEN YOU CONNECT TOOL TO AIR SUPPLY. The fastener
driving mechanism may cycle when the tool is connected to the air supply.
11. ALWAYS ASSUME THE TOOL CONTAINS FASTENERS. Keep it pointed
away from yourself and others at all times. No horseplay. Respect the tool
as a working implement.
12. DO NOT LOAD FASTENERS with trigger or safety depressed. The tool may
unintentionally fire a fastener.
13. DO NOT DEPRESS THE TRIGGER when not driving fasteners. Never carry
tool with finger on trigger mechanism: tool may fire an unwanted fastener.
14. DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not
reach over or across machines which are running.
15. FIRE FASTENERS INTO WORK SURFACE ONLY, never into materials too
hard to penetrate.
16. GRIP TOOL FIRMLY to maintain control while allowing the tool to recoil away
from the work surface as the fastener is driven. If the safety is allowed to re-
contact the work surface before the trigger is released, an unwanted fastener
will be fired.
17. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS ON TOP OF OTHER FASTENERS, or with
the tool at too steep an angle: the fasteners can ricochet causing personal
injury.
18. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS too close to the edge of the workpiece. The
workpiece is likely to split, allowing the fasteners to fly free or ricochet caus-
ing personal injury.
19. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with ground-
ed surfaces: pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures. Before
driving fasteners into walls, floors, or wherever "live" electrical wires may be
encountered, try to ascertain whether there is a danger of shock.
