8. INSPECT SCREW TIGHTNESS
Loose or improperly installed screws or bolts cause accidents and tool damage when the tool is put
into operation. Inspect to confirm that all screws and bolts are tight and properly installed prior to
operating the tool.
9. DO NOT TOUCH THE TRIGGER UNLESS YOU INTEND TO DRIVE A FASTENER
Whenever the air supply is connected to the tool, never touch the trigger unless you intend to drive
a fastener into the work. It is dangerous to walk around carrying the tool with the trigger pulled, and
this and similar actions should be avoided.
10. NEVER POINT THE DISCHARGE OUTLET TOWARD YOURSELF AND OTHER PERSONNEL
If the discharge outlet is pointed toward people, serious accidents may be caused when misfiring.
Be sure the discharge outlet is not pointed toward people when connecting and disconnecting the
hose, loading and unloading the fasteners or similar operations.
11. USE SPECIFIED FASTENERS (SEE PAGE 7)
The use of fasteners other than specified fasteners will cause the tool malfunction. Be sure to use
only specified fasteners when operating the tool.
12. PLACE THE DISCHARGE OUTLET ON THE WORK SURFACE PROPERLY
Failure to place the discharge outlet of the nose in a proper manner can result in a fastener flying
up and is extremely dangerous.
13. KEEP HANDS AND BODY AWAY FROM THE DISCHARGE OUTLET
When loading and using the tool, never place a hand or any part of body in fastener discharge area
of the tool. It is very dangerous to hit the hands or body by mistake.
14. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS CLOSE TO THE EDGE AND CORNER OF THE WORK AND THIN
MATE RIAL
The workpiece is likely to split and the fastener could fly free and hit someone.
15. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS ON TOP OF OTHER FASTENERS
Driving fasteners of the top of other fasteners may cause deflection fasteners which could cause
injury.
16. REMOVING THE FASTENERS AFTER COMPLETING OPERATION
If fasteners are left in the magazine after the completion of operation, there is the danger of a serious
accident occurring prior to the resumption of operation, should the tool be handled carelessly, or
when connecting the air fitting. For this reason, always remove all fasteners remaining in the
magazine after completion of the operation.
17. CHECK OPERATION OF THE CONTACT TRIP MECHANISM FREQUENTLY IN CASE OF
USING A CONTACT TRIP TYPE TOOL
Do not use the tool if the trip is not working correctly as accidental driving of a fastener may result.
Do not interfere with the proper operation of the contact trip mechanism.
