Safety Instructions; Fastener Specifications - Bostitch BTFP12180 Manual De Operación Y De Mantenimiento

EYE PROTECTION which conforms to ANSI specifications and provides protection against
flying particles both from the FRONT and SIDE should ALWAYS be worn by the operator and
others in the work area when connecting to air supply, loading, operating or servicing this
tool. Eye protection is required to guard against flying fasteners and debris, which could
cause severe eye injury.
The employer and/or user must ensure that proper eye protection is worn. Eye protection
equipment must conform to the requirements of the American National Standards Institute,
ANSI Z87.1 and provide both frontal and side protection. NOTE: Non-side shielded
spectacles and face shields alone do not provide adequate protection.
CAUTION: Additional Safety Protection will be required in some environments. For example,
the working area may include exposure to noise level which can lead to hearing damage.
The employer and user must ensure that any necessary hearing protection is provided and
used by the operator and others in the work area. Some environments will require the use
of head protection equipment. When required, the employer and user must ensure that head
protection conforming to ANSI Z89.1 is used.
When loading tool: 1.) Never place a hand or any part of body in fastener discharge area of
tool; 2.) Never point tool at anyone; 3.) Do not depress the actuating lever as accidental
actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.
Always handle the tool with care: 1.) Never engage in horseplay; 2.) Never depress the
actuating lever unless nose is directed toward the work; 3.) Keep others a safe distance from
the tool while tool is in operation as accidental actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.
Keep hands and body away from the discharge area of the tool.
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.
This stapler produces SPARKS during operation. NEVER use the stapler near flammable
substances, gases or vapors including lacquer, paint, benzine, thinner, gasoline, adhesives,
mastics, glues or any other material that is -- or the vapors, fumes or by-products of which are --
flammable, combustible or explosive. Using the stapler in any such environment could cause an
EXPLOSION resulting in personal injury or death to user and bystanders.
When working on tools note the warnings in this manual and use extra care when
evaluating problem tools.
