Use the tool only for its intended use. Do not discharge
•
fasteners into open air or any material too hard for
the pin to penetrate. Do not use the body of the tool
or top cap as a hammer. Discharged pin may follow
unexpected path and cause injury.
•
Always keep fingers clear of contact trip to prevent
injury from inadvertent release of the pin.
Refer to the Maintenance and Repairs sections for
•
detailed information on the proper maintenance of
the tool.
•
Always operate the tool in a clean, lighted area. Be sure
the work surface is clear of any debris and be careful not to
lose footing when working in elevated environments such
as rooftops.
•
Fasteners must be driven straight into the material. Do
not tilt the nailer while driving fasteners. Personal injury can
result from ricocheted or jammed pins.
•
Keep hands and body parts clear of immediate
work area.
WARNING: To avoid injury keep hands and body away
from the front discharge area of the tool.
•
Do not use tool in the presence of flammable dust, gases
or fumes. This tool produces sparks that can ignite gases or
dust causing an explosion. Driving a pin into another pin may
also cause a spark.
•
Keep face and body parts away from back of the tool
cap when working in restricted areas. Sudden recoil can
result in impact to the body, especially when nailing into hard
or dense material.
•
Grip tool firmly to maintain control while allowing tool
to recoil away from work surface as fastener is driven.
•
Be aware of material thickness when using nailer. A
protruding pin may cause injury.
•
Do not drive pins blindly into walls, floors or other work
areas. Fasteners driven into live electrical wires, plumbing, or
other types of obstructions can result in injury.
•
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool
while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks
cannot be avoided. These are:
•
Impairment of hearing.
•
Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
•
Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
during operation.
•
Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
Electrical Safety
The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only.
Always check that the battery pack voltage corresponds to the
voltage on the rating plate. Also make sure that the voltage of
your charger corresponds to that of your mains.
Your D
WALT charger is double insulated in
e
accordance with EN60335; therefore no earth wire
is required.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a
specially prepared cord available through the D
service organisation.
Mains Plug Replacement
(U.K. & Ireland Only)
If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:
•
Safely dispose of the old plug.
•
Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in the plug.
•
Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.
WARNING: No connection is to be made to the
earth terminal.
Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good quality plugs.
Recommended fuse: 3 A.
Using an Extension Cable
An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary. Use an approved extension cable suitable for
the power input of your charger (see Technical Data). The
minimum conductor size is 1 mm
is 30 m.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.

Important Safety Instructions for All
Battery Chargers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important
safety and operating instructions for compatible battery
chargers (refer to Technical Data).
•
Before using charger, read all instructions and
cautionary markings on charger, battery pack, and
product using battery pack.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get
inside charger. Electric shock may result.
WARNING: We recommend the use of a residual current
device with a residual current rating of 30mA or less.
CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury,
charge only D
WALT rechargeable batteries. Other types of
e
batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
CAUTION: Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
NOTICE: Under certain conditions, with the charger
plugged into the power supply, the exposed charging
contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign
material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such
as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil or any
buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from
