NAILER SAFETY WARNINGS

 Always assume that the tool contains nails. Careless
handling of the nailer can result in unexpected firing of
nails and personal injury.
 Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone
nearby. Unexpected triggering will discharge the nail
causing an injury.
 Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed firmly
against the workpiece. If the tool is not in contact with
the workpiece, the nail may be deflected away from your
target.
 Disconnect the tool from the power source when the
fastener jams in the tool. While removing a jammed
fastener, the tacker may be accidentally activated if it is
plugged in.
 Use caution while removing a jammed nail. The mecha-
nism may be under compression and the nail may be
forcefully discharged while attempting to free a jammed
condition.
 Do not use this nailer for fastening electrical cables.
It is not designed for electric cable installation and may
damage the insulation of electric cables thereby causing
electric shock or fire hazards.
 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the nail may contact
hidden wiring. Nails contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could
give the operator an electric shock.
 Know your power tool. Read operator's manual care-
fully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as
the specific potential hazards related to this power
tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock, fire, or serious injury.
 Always wear eye protection with side shields marked
to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Everyday glasses have only
impact resistant lenses. They are not safety glasses. Fol-
lowing this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal
injury.
 Eye protection which conforms to ANSI specifications
and provides protection against flying particles both
from the FRONT and SIDE should ALWAYS be worn
by the operator and others in the work area when
loading, operating or servicing this tool. Eye protection
is required to guard against flying fasteners and debris,
which could cause severe eye injury.
 The employer and/or user must ensure that proper
eye protection is worn. We recommend Wide Vision
Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety
glasses that provide protection against flying particles
both from the front and side. Always use eye protection
which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
 Additional safety protection will be required in some
environments. For example, the working area may in-
clude exposure to noise level which can lead to hearing
damage. The employer and user must ensure that any
necessary hearing protection is provided and used by the
operator and others in the work area. Some environments
will require the use of head protection equipment. When
required, the employer and user must ensure that head
protection conforming to ANSI Z89.1-1997 is used.
 Keep fingers away from trigger when not driving fas-
teners to avoid accidental firing.
 Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
 Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the
operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of serious personal injury.
 Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during
extended periods of operation. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
 Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an elec-
trical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating
condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not
using your battery tool or when changing accessories.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire, or serious personal injury.
 Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire
or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly
injury.
 Use the tool only for its intended use. Do not discharge
fasteners into open air.
 Use the tool only for the purpose for which it was
designed.
 Use only the nails recommended for this tool. Use of
the wrong nails could result in poor nail feeding, jammed
nails, and nails leaving the tool at erratic angles. If nails
are not feeding smoothly and properly, discontinue their
use immediately. Jammed and improperly feeding nails
could result in serious personal injury.
 Never use this tool in a manner that could cause a
nail to be directed toward anything other than the
workpiece.
 Do not use the tool as a hammer.
 Always carry the tool by the handle.
 Do not alter or modify this tool from the original design
or function without approval from the manufacturer.
 Always be aware that misuse and improper handling
of this tool can cause injury to yourself and others.
 Never clamp or tape the trigger or workpiece contact
in an actuated position.
 Never leave tool unattended if the battery is installed.
 Do not operate this tool if it does not contain a legible
warning label.
 Keep the tool and its handle dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when clean-
ing. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based
