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 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.
BEFORE HANDLING OR OPERATING THIS TOOL:
I. READ AND UNDERSTAND THE WARNINGS CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL.
II. REFER TO "TOOL SPECIFICATIONS" IN THIS MANUAL TO IDENTIFY THE
OPERATING SYSTEM ON YOUR TOOL.
The operator must not hold the trigger pulled on contact trip tools except during
fastening operation, as serious injury could result if the trip accidentally contacted
someone or something, causing the tool to cycle.
Keep hands and body away from the discharge area of the tool. A contact trip tool
may bounce from the recoil of driving a fastener and an unwanted second fastener
may be driven, possibly causing injury.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP OPERATION
The SEQUENTIAL TRIP MODEL contains a contact trip that operates in conjunction with the trigger to drive
a fastener. To operate a sequential trip tool, first position the contact trip on the work surface WITHOUT
PULLING THE TRIGGER. Depress the contact trip and then pull the trigger to drive a fastener. As long as
the contact trip is contacting the work and is held depressed, the tool will drive a fastener each time the
trigger is depressed. If the contact trip is allowed to leave the work surface, the sequence described above
must be repeated to drive another fastener.
CAUTION: Remove all fasteners from tool before performing tool operation check.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP OPERATION:
A. Press the contact trip against the work surface, without touching the trigger.
THE TOOL MUST NOT CYCLE.
B. Hold the tool off the work surface and pull the trigger.
THE TOOL MUST NOT CYCLE.
Release the trigger. The trigger must return to the trigger stop on the frame.
C. Pull the trigger and press the contact trip against the work surface.
THE TOOL MUST NOT CYCLE.
D. With finger off the trigger, press the contact trip against the work surface. Pull the trigger.
