Please follow the instructions given in this instruc-
tion manual and correctly handle this tool so as to
ensure safe operation. Never let the tool be used by
children or people who do not know enough to be
able to handle it correctly, or let it be used by people
who cannot operate it correctly.
3. Confirm the safety of the workshop.
Keep unauthorized people away from the workshop.

Before using the tool, always check that no parts of
it are broken, that all screws are completely tight,
and that no parts are missing or rusty.
6. Excessive work could cause accidents.
Do not make tools and accessories work beyond
their abilities. Excessive work not only damages the

Stop operation if you notice abnormalities, or if the
power tool does not work properly; have the power
tool inspected and serviced.
8. Look after the power tool carefully.
If you drop or knock the power tool against things,
the outer frame may be deformed and cracks or
other kinds of damage may occur, so please handle
it with sufficient care. Also, do not scratch or en-
grave signs on the power tool. Owing to high pres-
sure air inside the tool and cracks in the surface are
dangerous.
Never use the power tool if a crack develops or if air
is escaping from a crack.

PRECAUTIONS ON USING NAILER
1. Safe operation through correct usage
This tool was designed for driving nails into wood
and similar materials. Use it for its intended purpose
only.
2. Make sure air pressure is within the rated range of
air pressure.
Please make sure that the air pressure is within a
range of 4.9 bar – 8.3 bar (70 ~ 120 psi.), and that the
air which is used is clean and dry. If the air pressure
is greater than 8.3 bar (120 psi.), the service life of the
power tool will be shortened and dangerous condi-
tions could develop. Tools shall not be connected to
pressure which potentially exceeds 14 bar (200 psi.).
3. Never operate the equipment with high-pressure
gases other than compressed air.
Never use carbon dioxide, oxygen or other
gases from pressurized containers under any cir-
cumstances.
4. Be careful of ignition and explosions.
Since sparks may fly during nailing, it is dangerous
to use this tool near lacquer, paint, benzine, thinner,
gasoline, gas, adhesives and similar inflammable
substances as they may ignite or explode. Under no
circumstances should this tool therefore be used in
the vicinity of such inflammable material.
5. Always wear eye protection (protective goggles).
When operating the power tool, always wear eye
protection, and ensure that surrounding people wear
eye protection too.
The possibility of fragments of the wire or plastic
linking the nails or nails that were not properly hit
entering the eye is a threat to sight. Eye protection
can be bought at any hardware store. Always wear
eye protection while operating this tool. Use either
eye protection or a wide vision mask over prescrip-
tion glasses.
Employers should always enforce the use of eye
protection equipment.
6. Protect your ears and head.
When engaged in nailing work, please wear ear
mufflers and head protection. Also, depending on
condition, ensure that surrounding people also wear
ear mufflers and head protection.
7. Pay attention to those working close to you.
It would be very dangerous if nails that were not
properly driven in should hit other people. There-
fore, always pay attention to the safety of the people
around you when using this tool. Always make sure
that nobody's body, hands or feet are close to the
nail outlet.
8. Never point the nail outlet toward people.
Always assume the tool contains fasteners.
If the nail outlet is pointed toward people, serious
accidents may be caused if you mistakenly operate
the tool. When connecting and disconnecting the
hose, during nail loading or similar operations, be
sure the nail outlet is not pointed towards anyone
(including yourself). Even when no nails are loaded
at all, it is dangerous to operate the tool while
pointing it at someone, so never attempt to do so. No
horseplay. Respect the tool as a working implement.
9. Before using the power tool, check the push lever.
Before using the power tool make sure to check that
the push lever and valve operate properly. Without
nails loaded into the power tool, connect the hose
and check the following. If the sound of operation
occurs this indicates a fault, so in such a case do not
