Do not use tool if trigger does not actuate properly.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the trigger is
dangerous and must be repaired.
check operation of the workpiece contact
mechanism frequently. Do not use the tool if the
workpiece contact mechanism is not working correctly
as accidental driving of a nail may result. Do not
interfere with the proper operation of the workpiece
contact mechanism.
Do not use a tool that does not work correctly.
Always assume that the tool contains nails.
Do not carry the tool from place to place holding
the trigger. Accidental discharge could result.
Always handle the tool with care:
• Respect the tool as a working implement.
• Never engage in horseplay.
• Never pull the trigger unless nose is directed toward
the work.
• Keep others a safe distance from the tool while tool
is in operation as accidental actuation may occur,
possibly causing injury.
choice of triggering method is important. check
manual for triggering options.
the brad nailer is designed for single-hand use. Do
not hold the tool by the front of the magazine. Do not
put hands, head, or other parts of your body near the
bottom of the magazine where the nail exits the tool, as
serious personal injury could result.
Do not point the tool toward yourself or anyone
whether it contains nails or not.
Do not actuate the tool unless you intend to drive a
nail into the workpiece.
Always ensure that the workpiece contact is fully
positioned above the workpiece. Positioning the
workpiece contact only partially above the workpiece
could cause the nail to miss the workpiece completely
and result in serious personal injury.
Do not drive nails near edge of material. The
workpiece may split causing the nail to ricochet,
injuring you or a co-worker. Be aware that the nail may
follow the grain of the wood, causing it to protrude
unexpectedly from the side of the work material or
deflect, possibly causing injury.
Do not point the tool toward yourself or anyone
whether it contains nails or not.
Do not actuate the tool unless you intend to drive a
nail into the workpiece.
NAIlER SAFEtY WARNINGS
6 – English
Always ensure that the workpiece contact is fully
positioned above the workpiece. Positioning the
workpiece contact only partially above the workpiece
could cause the nail to miss the workpiece completely
and result in serious personal injury.
Do not drive nails near edge of material. The workpiece
may split causing the nail to ricochet, injuring you or a co-
worker. Be aware that the nail may follow the grain of the
wood, causing it to protrude unexpectedly from the side
of the work material or deflect, possibly causing injury.
Keep hands and body parts clear of immediate
work area. Hold workpiece with clamps when
necessary to keep hands and body out of potential
harm. Be sure the workpiece is properly secured
before pressing the fastener against the material. The
workpiece contact may cause the work material to shift
unexpectedly.
Keep face and body parts away from back of the
tool cap when working in restricted areas. Sudden
recoil can result in impact to the body, especially when
nailing into hard or dense material.
During normal use the tool will recoil immediately
after driving a fastener. this is a normal function
of the tool. Do not attempt to prevent the recoil by
holding the nailer against the work. Restriction to the
recoil can result in a second fastener being driven from
the nailer. Grip the handle firmly, let the tool do the
work and do not place second hand on top of tool or
near exhaust at any time. Failure to heed this warning
can result in serious personal injury.
Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners or with
the tool at an overly steep angle as this may cause
deflection of fasteners which could cause injury.
loADING tool
Do not load the tool with fasteners when any one of
the operating controls is activated.
When loading tool:
Never place a hand or any part of body in fastener
discharge area of tool.
Never point tool at anyone.
Do not pull the trigger or depress the workpiece
contact as accidental actuation may occur, possibly
causing injury.
