Risk of electric shock
What could happen How to prevent it
• Using air tools to attach electrical wiring may result in
electrocution or death.
• Never use nailer/staplers to attach electrical wiring
while energized.
• Contact with a “live” wire will also make exposed metal
parts of the tool “live” and may result in electrocution
or death.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
• Fasteners coming in contact with hidden electrical
wiring may cause electrocution or death.
• Thoroughly investigate the workpiece for possible
hidden wiring before performing work.

contains loose straps or ties, etc. which could become
entangled in moving parts of the tool.
• Remove any jewellery, watches, identifications,
bracelets, necklaces, etc. which might become caught
by the tool.

long hair.
• Always wear proper fitting clothing and other safety
equipment when using this tool.
