 Repairs can only be effected by official dealers.
 To prevent injuries to yourself and bystanders, refer to tool use, maintenance and
troubleshooting sections for additional information (fig. 1).
 To prevent eye injuries, always wear safety glasses with hard plastic side shields.
Be sure everyone in your work area is wearing the same type of safety glasses (fig.
2).
 Always wear hearing protection and a hard hat (fig. 3).
 Never use hydrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide or any other bottled gas as a power
source for this tool, the tool will explode and cause serious injury (fig. 4).
 Remove your finger from trigger when not driving fasteners. Never carry the tool with
finger on the trigger, the tool will eject a fastener when the safety is pressed (fig. 5).
 Never connect the tool to an air hose with pressure exceeding 200 psi or 13.7 bar
(fig. 6).
 Air compressors must comply with requirement ANSI B19.3 1981 (U.S.), "Safety
Standard for Compressors for Process Industries" (fig. 7).

Air hose minimum working pressure rating of 150 psi (10.3 bar) or 150% of the
maximum pressure produced in the system is absolutely necessary (fig. 8).
 The tool and air supply hose must have a hose coupling such that all pressure is
removed from the tool when the coupling joint is disconnected (fig. 9).

Use only compressed air coming through 3 pieces set (fig. 10).
 Never load the tool if it is connected to air supply (fig. 11).

Never use the tool if the safety element, trigger or springs have become inoperative,
missing or damaged. It is hazardous to remove the safety element, trigger or spring
(fig. 12).
 Before using this tool, make sure trigger, screw and cap are securely tightened (fig.
13).
 Do not modify tool without authorization (fig. 14).
 Disconnect the tool from the air supply whenever the tool stops working (fig.15).

Keep the tool pointed away from yourself and others (fig. 16).
 Fire fasteners into work surface only, never into materials too hard to penetrate (fig.
17).

Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners. Firing the tool in an inclined angle is
also forbidden (fig. 18).
 Do not push safety element on work surface until a second fastener is desired (fig.
19).
 Do not drive fasteners close to the edge of the work surface. The work piece is likely
to split and the fastener could fly free and hit someone (fig. 20).
 Do not load fasteners with trigger or safety element depressed (fig. 21).
 Do not use tool without Danger-label on tool (fig. 22).
 Never use a tool that leaks air or needs repair (fig. 23).
 Be sure you are in a balanced position when using or handling the tool (fig. 24).

Operate the tool at recommended pressure of 4-8 bar.
5 ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR FASTENER DRIVING TOOLS OPERATED BY
COMPRESSED AIR
 fastener driving tools operated by compressed air shall only be connected to
compressed air lines where the maximum allowable pressure cannot be exceeded
by a factor of more than 10%, which can for example be achieved by a pressure
reduction valve which includes a downstream safety valve;
