17. Check for damaged parts.

Before using a tool, check

that there are no damaged parts. If a part is slightly

damaged, carefully determine if it will operate properly

and perform its intended function. Check for alignment

of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage

of parts, proper mounting and any other conditions

that may affect the operation of the tool. A part that is

damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an

authorised service facility, unless otherwise indicated in

this Instruction Manual.

Defective switches must be replaced by an authorised

service facility. Do not use a tool if the switch does not

turn the tool on and off correctly.

18. Guard against electric shock.

Prevent body contact

with grounded objects such as water pipes, radiators,

cookers and refrigerator enclosures.

19. Use only approved parts.

When servicing, use only

identical replacement parts. Use an authorised service

facility to fit replacement parts.

20. Disconnect tool from air supply hose.

Before doing

tool maintenance, clearing a jammed fastener, leaving

work area, moving tool to another location, or handing

the tool to another person.

21. Never use a tool that is leaking air, has missing or

damaged parts, or requires repair.

Make sure all

screws and caps are securely tightened.

22. Operator and others in work area MUST wear safety

glasses with side shields.

Additional safety rules

for framing gun nailers

1. Do not play with the contact element.

It prevents

accidental discharge, so it must be kept on and not

removed. Securing the trigger in the ON position is also

very dangerous. Never attempt to fasten the trigger. Do

not operate a tool if any portion of the tool operating

controls is inoperable, disconnected, altered, or not

working properly.

2. Operate the tool within the specified air pressure of

0.5 - 0.8 MPa (75 – 120 PSI) for safety and longer tool

life.

Do not exceed the recommended max. operating

pressure of 0.8 MPa (120 PSI). The tool should not

be connected to a source whose pressure potentially

exceeds 1.37 MPa (200 PSI).

3. Never use the tool with other than compressed air.

If bottled gas (carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen,

hydrogen, air, etc.) or combustible gas (hydrogen,

propane, acetylene, etc.) is used as an air source for this

tool, the tool will explode and cause serious injury.

4. Always check the tool for its overall condition and

loose screws before operation.

Tighten as required.

5. Make sure all safety systems are in working order

before operation.

The tool must not operate if only the

trigger is pulled or if only the contact safety mechanism is

pressed against the wood. It must work only when both

actions are performed. Test for possible faulty operation

with nails unloaded.

6. Check working environment.

Check walls, ceilings,

floors, roofing and the like carefully to avoid possible

electrical shock, gas leakage, explosions, etc. caused by

striking live wires, conduits or gas pipes.

7. Use only nails specified in this manual.

The use of

any other nails may cause malfunction of the tool and will

not be covered under warranty.
