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 work-
piece 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 ex-
plode, possibly causing injury or death.
 Do not use with an air compressor which can po-
tentially 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 discon-
necting 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.
LOADING TOOL
 Do not load the tool with fasteners when any one of
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.
 Do not pull the trigger or depress the workpiece
contact as accidental actuation may occur, possibly
causing injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
 Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others
who may use this tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan
them these instructions also.
