Skil 8200 Notice Originale page 7

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool's
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR TACKERS
• Always assume that the tool contains fasteners
(careless handling of the tacker can result in unexpected
firing of fasteners and personal injury)
• Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone
nearby (unexpected triggering will discharge the fastener
causing an injury)
• Do not actuate the tool unless the tool 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 tool from the power source when the
fastener jams in the tool (while removing a jammed
fastener, the tacker 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 this tacker 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)
• Secure the workpiece (a workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely than
by hand)
• This tool is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the tool by a person responsible for
their safety
• Ensure that children do not play with the tool
• SKIL can assure flawless functioning of the tool only
when original accessories are used
• Always check that the supply voltage is the same as the
voltage indicated on the nameplate of the tool
• Avoid damage that can be caused by screws, nails and
other elements in your workpiece; remove them before
you start working
• In case of electrical or mechanical malfunction,
immediately switch off the tool and disconnect the plug
• If the cord is damaged or cut through while working, do
not touch the cord, but immediately disconnect the plug
• Never use the tool when cord is damaged; have it
replaced by a qualified person
• Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords with a
capacity of 16 Amps (U.K. 13 Amps)
EXPLANATION OF SYMBOLS ON TOOL

in the cord of this tool to the earth terminal of the plug
• If for any reason the old plug is cut off the cord of this tool,
it must be disposed of safely and not left unattended
USE
• Loading staples/nails 6
! disconnect the plug
- turn tool upside down
- press lever A while pulling slider B backwards
- insert the staple/nail strip into magazine C with legs
facing upward (maximal capacity 100 staples/80 nails)
- push slider B against tacker head D until it snap-locks
- when inserting a nail strip (not supplied with the tool)
tilt the tool in such a way, that the nail strip rests
against the magazine side which corresponds with the
nail symbol on tacker head D 7
- reload magazine C when end of staple- or nail strip
shows in opening H 2
• Operating the tool 8
- switch on the tool by pushing switch E in "I" position
- firmly press tacker head D against the workpiece until
it is pushed in completely
- briefly press switch F and then release again
! while working, always hold the tool at the
grey-coloured grip area(s)
- switch off the tool by pushing switch E in "O" position
• Impact control 9
With wheel G the required impact level can be adjusted
steplessly from minimum to maximum (- / +)
- "-" for thin and light materials such as foils and fabrics
- "+" for thick and tough materials such as hard woods
and walls
- before starting a job, find the optimal impact level by
testing out on spare material
APPLICATION ADVICE
• Fastening panels 0
• Fixing textiles !
• For stapling hard wood use shorter staples than the ones
supplied with the tool
• Avoid blank shots in order to reduce the wear of the
impact strike
