e. Fire nails into an appropriate work
surface only. Do not attempt to fire
nails into surfaces too hard to pen-
etrate. Do not drive nails on top of
other nails, or at too steep an angle.
Nails can ricochet, causing personal
injury. Never fire this tool into the air
or point it toward yourself or another
person.
f. Hold tool away from head and
body during use. Tool may kick
back, causing injury.
g. Do not fire fasteners too close to
edge of workpiece. They may split
the workpiece and fly free, causing
personal injury.
h. Carry tool safely. Carry tool by
handle.
i. Use clamps or another practical
way to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against
the body is unstable and is able to
lead to loss of control.
j. Do not force the tool. Use correct
tool for application. The correct tool
will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which the tool is designed.
k. Disconnect the tool from the air
source before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or
storing the tool. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the tool unintentionally.
Turn off and detach the air supply
and safely discharge any residual
air pressure before leaving the work
area.
l. Store the tool when it is idle out of
reach of children and other un-
trained persons. A tool is dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
m. Maintain the tool with care. Keep
tool clean. A properly maintained tool,
reduces the risk of binding and is
easier to control.
n. Check for misalignment or bind-
ing of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other condition that
affects the tool’s operation. If dam-
aged, have the tool serviced before
using. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained tools. There is a
risk of bursting if the tool is damaged.
o. Use only accessories that are
identified by the manufacturer for
the specific tool model. Use of an
accessory not intended for use with
the specific tool model, increases the
risk of injury to persons.
Service
a. Tool service must be performed
only by qualified repair personnel.
b. When servicing a tool, use only
identical replacement parts. Use
only authorized parts.
c. Use only the lubricants supplied
with the tool or specified by the
manufacturer.
Air source
a. Never connect to an air
source that is capable of
exceeding 120 PSI. Over
pressurizing the tool may
cause bursting, abnormal operation,
breakage of the tool or serious injury
to persons. Use only clean, dry,
regulated compressed air at the rated
