• Never use oxygen, carbon
dioxide or any other bottled
gas as a power source for
this tool. The tool could explode
and serious personal injury could
result.
• Use only lubricated, water-free
compressed air at the recom-
mended pressure.
• The tool shall only be connected
to an air-supply where the max-
imum allowable pressure of the
tool cannot be exceeded by more
than 10 %; in the case of higher
pressures, a pressure reducing
valve which includes a down-
stream safety valve shall be built
into the compressed air supply;
Quick-action couplings shall
be used for connection to the
compressed air system and the
non-sealable nipple must be fitted
at the tool in such a way that no
compressed air remains in the tool
after disconnection.
• When using compressed air
always follow the safety codes of
practice laid out by the compres-
sor manufacturer.
• Ensure all air couplings are secure
and tight. (Figure 1)
• Do not keep the tool unattended
when it is connected to the air
supply.
• When tool is not in use always
disconnect it from the air supply.
(Figure 3)
• Always assume the tool contains
fasteners.
• Keep the tool pointed away from
yourself and others.
• Do not use the tool when
you are on a scale, stairs or
scaffolds, ladders, or ladder
alike constructions, e.g. roof laths,
when closing boxes or crates,
when fitting transportation safety
systems e.g. on vehicles and wag-
ons.
• Tools marked with an equilat-
eral triangle may not be used
unless fitted with an effective
safety yoke.
• Always remove finger from trigger
when not driving fasteners. Never
carry the tool with finger on or
under the trigger as accidental
actuation may occur and cause
injury.
• Disconnect tool from air before
doing tool maintenance, clearing
a jammed fastener, leaving work
area, moving tool to another loca-
tion, or handing the tool to another
person.
• Never use tool if safety yoke,
trigger or springs have become in-
operable missing or damaged. Do
not tamper with or remove safety
yoke, trigger or springs.
• Never actuate the tool into free
space. This will avoid any hazard
caused by free flying fasteners and
excessive strain of the tool.
• Make sure all screws and caps
are securely tightened at all times.
(Figure 2)
• Never use the tool that leaks air or
needs repair.
• Use only original projectiles, spare
parts and accessories.
• Stands for mounting the tool to
a support, for example to a work
table, shall be designed and con-
structed by the stand manufactur-
er in such a way that the tool can
be safely fixed for the intended
use, thus for example avoiding
