• Fastening thin items. Special caution must be taken for possible penetration through thin items, as this could cause possible harm to anyone or anything
behind the work piece or immediate area.
• Never use the tool as a hammer. The sudden impact could shift inner components of the power tool, resulting in a fastener discharge and injury.
• Do not disassemble or block any parts of the fastener driving parts.
• Prior to each operation, check that the safety and trigger mechanism is functioning properly.
• Never point any power tool at yourself or at any other person. While working, hold the tool in such a way that no injuries can be caused to the head or to the
body in the event of possible recoil.
• Never fire the power tool into free space or the air. Fasteners can penetrate thin work pieces or slip off corners and edges of the work piece, potentially
putting people at risk.
• Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners.
• Do not use this tool to fasten electric cables. This tool is not designed for the installation of electric cabling and may damage electric cables which could lead
to injury by electric shock or fire hazards.
• Beware of hidden danger. Always make sure there is no danger of hitting any hidden power cables, water or gas pipes. Use appropriate detectors to determine
if any utility lines (electric, gas or water) are hidden within the work area or call your local utility company for assistance.
Regular maintenance
• Frequent, but not excessive, lubrication is required for best performance. Oil added through the airline connection will lubricate internal parts. An automatic
airline oiler is recommended but oil may be added manually before every operation or after about 1 hour of continuous use. Only a few drops of oil at a time
are necessary. Too much oil will collect inside the tool and be blown out during the exhaust cycle. Only use pneumatic tool oil. Do not use detergent oil or
additives, as these lubricants will cause accelerated wear to the seal in the tool.
• Use a small amount of oil on all moving surface and pivots.
• Dirt and water in the air supply are major causes of pneumatic tool wear. Use a filter/oiler for better performance and longer life. The filter must have adequate
flow capacity for the specific application. Consult the manufacturer's instructions for proper maintenance of your filter.
• Keep tools clean for better and safer performance. Use non-flammable cleaning solutions only if necessary (caution: such solutions may damage O-ring and
other tool parts). Do not soak.
