Air Framing Nailer 90mm
WARNING: Always wear ear protection where the sound level exceeds
85dB(A) and limit the time of exposure if necessary. If sound levels are
uncomfortable even with ear protection stop using the tool immediately and
check the ear protection is correctly fitted and provides the right level of
sound attenuation for the level of sound produced by your tool.
3) Tool use and care
a)
Maintain tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect
the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
b)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
c)
Use the tool’s accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with
these instructions, taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
4) Service
a)
Have your tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the
tool is maintained.
Air Tool Safety
Protect your eyes
• Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses
Protect your hearing
• Always wear ear protection
Protection from vibration
• Hand-held air tools may produce vibration and should not be used for
long periods without a break. Vibration can cause disease. Gloves may
help to maintain good blood circulation in the fingers.
Protective clothing
• Always wear appropriate protective equipment including but not limited
to overalls, gloves, facemask etc
• It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that other persons in the vicinity
of the work area are also equipped with the appropriate protective
equipment
Use the correct air hose
• Use lightweight hose to connect the tool to the air compressor
• Most air tools should be fitted with a coil hose.
Always disconnect
• Ensure that your air tool has completely stopped functioning before
putting it down
• Disconnect an air tool from the air supply before performing any
servicing, or changing any blades, discs, or other attachments
• Ensure blades, discs or attachments are correctly fitted before
reconnecting to air supply
• Ensure the air tool is switched OFF before connecting to air supply. Be
aware that air tools may hold residual pressure after use. Always bleed
air pressure from the tool after shutting off air supply
Do not abuse the machine
• Do not overload the machine. Allowing the machine to work at its
optimum speed is more efficient and prolongs its service life
• Do not increase air pressure above the recommended level; excessive
pressure leads to wear of moving parts, possible failure and may cause
the machine casing to split
• Do not attempt to modify air tools. Any attempt to modify this air tool
could result in serious injury to you or others, and will invalidate its
warranty
