in case of a delayed load discharge. Then carefully remove the entire load strip and
dispose of it in a can of water or other non flammable liquid. Never attempt to force or
pry a load out of a tool chamber. Do not discard unfired loads into a trash container.

CAUTION: Be sure to read and understand all of the safety precautions and
operator or bystanders in the event of an accidental discharge. Place the fastener,
point out, into the end of the guide until the fluted tip fits inside. Do not use

Always hold the tool perpendicular to the work surface. Hold the tool firmly against
the work surface to avoid excessive recoil. Never depress the tool against anything
except the work surface.
In the event that the load does not discharge after the trigger is pulled, continue
a new fastener before loading or advancing the powder load strip. Insert the fastener
as described in Step 1. Once the fastener is inserted, cycle the tool as described in
Step 2. Repeat this procedure for subsequent fastenings. When the ten load strip
has been completely fired, remove it by pulling it from the top of the tool body.
