2.1 Safety instructions

Working safely with the fastening tool
▶ Pressing the nosepiece of the fastening tool against a part of the body may lead to
serious injury due to inadvertent actuation and release of a fastener. Never press the
nosepiece of the tool against your hand or any other part of the body.
▶ When inserting/loading application-specific fasteners (e.g. washers, clips or clamps,
etc.) in/on the fastener guide there is a risk of serious injury due to inadvertent
actuation of the tool resulting in discharge of a fastener. When inserting/loading an
application-specific type of fastener, never press a hand or any other part of the
body against the fastener guide.
▶ Never point the fastening tool towards yourself or any other person.
▶ Keep your arms flexed when operating the tool (do not straighten the arms).
▶ When pulling back the nail pusher, always take care to ensure that it engages.
▶ When disengaging the nail pusher, do not release it and allow it to jump forward.
Guide it forward slowly. There is a risk of pinching the fingers.
▶ Do not attempt to drive fasteners into materials that are too hard, such as welded
steel or cast steel. Attempting to drive fasteners into these materials may lead to
malfunctions, incorrectly driven fasteners or breakage of fasteners.
▶ Do not attempt to drive fasteners into materials that are too soft, such as wood
or drywall/gypsum board. Attempting to drive fasteners into these materials may
lead to malfunctions and fasteners being driven incorrectly or driven right through the
material.
▶ Do not attempt to drive fasteners into materials that are too brittle, such as glass
or tiles. Attempting to drive fasteners into these materials may lead to malfunctions,
fasteners being driven incorrectly and may cause the material to shatter.
▶ Before driving fasteners, check that there is no risk of injuring persons or of damaging
objects present behind or below the working surface.
