When changing workplace or if the device is
■
not being used or when it is being transported
or stored, as well as in the event of jams or
maintenance work, the following applies: Keep
your fingers away from the trigger and discon-
nect the compressed air supply.
Slippy handles can result in a loss of control:
■
Keep the handle dry, clean and free of grease
and oil.
When firing nails, allow for a recoil.
■
Therefore, during operation, do not hold your
■
head directly over the air nailer and start with a
low penetration depth.

■
posture, especially on platforms as well as on
high and/or inclined, uneven or slippy working
surfaces.
The air nailer must not be used from a ladder.
■
Air nailers must not be used to close boxes or
■
crates.
The air nailer must not be used to attach trans-
■
port locks to vehicles and trucks.
In the following situations, nails can
break into several parts after their inser-
tion causing severe injuries:
If too soft, thin or too hard materials are pene-
■
trated or if the penetration depth is set too high.
If nails impact other nails after penetration.
■
Maintain at least 5 cm distance from edges
■
and corners.
Do not use the air nailer if people are present
■
opposite to the nailer.
Always position the air nailer at an angle of
■
90° to the surface.
