SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY FIRST
These safety instructions provide information necessary
for safe operation of Paslode
®
TO OPERATE THE TOOL UNTIL YOU READ AND
UNDERSTAND ALL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND
MANUAL INSTRUCTIONS.
WEAR EYE AND HEARING PROTECTION
Always wear hearing and eye protection devices, that
conform to ANSI Z87.1 requirements, when operating
or working in the vicinity of a tool. As an employer you
are responsible for enforcing the use of eye protection.
Wear hard hats in environments that require their use.
THE TOOL MUST BE USED ONLY FOR THE PURPOSE
FOR WHICH IT WAS DESIGNED
Do not throw the tool on the floor, strike the housing in
any way or use the tool as a hammer to knock material
into place.
NEVER ENGAGE IN HORSEPLAY WITH THE TOOL
The tool is not a toy so do not use it like one. Never
engage in horseplay with the tool or point it at yourself
or any other person, even if you think it is not loaded.
NEVER ASSUME THE TOOL IS EMPTY
Check the magazine for fasteners that may be left in the
tool. Even if you think the tool is empty or disconnected,
never point it at anyone or yourself. Unseen fasteners
could fire from the tool.
NEVER CLAMP THE TRIGGER IN A LOCKED OR
OPERATING POSITION
The trigger of the tool must never be tampered with,
disabled or clamped in a locked or operating position
since this will cause the tool to drive a fastener any time
the work contacting element depressed.
DO NOT LOAD FASTENERS WITH THE AIR LINE
CONNECTED, OR WITH THE TOOL TRIGGER OR
WORK CONTACTING ELEMENT DEPRESSED
When loading fasteners into the tool be sure you
disconnect the air line and that you do not depress
the trigger or work contacting element.
OPERATE THE TOOL ONLY ON A WORKPIECE
The tool should be operated only when it is in contact
with the workpiece. Even then you should be careful
when fastening thin material or working near the edges
and corners of the workpiece since the fasteners may
drive through or away from the workpiece.
DO NOT DISABLE OR REMOVE THE WORK
CONTACTING ELEMENT
This tool is equipped with a safety mechanism, called a
work contacting element, to help prevent accidental
firing. Never tamper with, disable or remove the work
contacting element. Do not use the tool unless the
work contacting element is working properly. The tool
could fire unexpectedly.
Failure to follow any of the above instructions could result in severe personal
injury to tool user and bystanders or cause damage to tool and property.
Contact your local Paslode Representative for presentation of Paslodeʼs Safety Awareness Program

WARNING
DISCONNECT THE TOOL WHEN NOT IN USE
Always disconnect the tool from the air line when it
is not in use, when you leave the work area or when
moving the tool to a new location. The tool must
never be left unattended because people who are
not familiar with the tool might handle it and injure
themselves or others.
CARRY THE TOOL ONLY BY THE HANDLE
Always carry the tool by the handle only. Never carry
the tool by the air hose or with the trigger depressed
since you could drive a fastener unintentionally and
injure yourself or someone else.
DO NOT WEAKEN THE TOOL HOUSING
The tool housing is a pressure vessel and should never
be weakened by having your companyʼs name, area of
work or anything else stamped or engraved into its
surface.
DISCONNECT THE TOOL WHEN PERFORMING
REPAIRS AND CLEARING JAMS
Never attempt to clear a jam or repair a tool unless you
have disconnected the tool from the air line and removed
all remaining fasteners from the tool.
ALWAYS USE THE PROPER FITTING FOR THE
TOOL
Only MALE pneumatic type air connectors should be
fitted to the tool, so that high pressure air in the tool is
vented to atmosphere as soon as the air line is discon-
nected.
NEVER install FEMALE quick disconnect couplings on
the tool. Female couplings will trap high pressure air in
the tool when the air line is disconnected, leaving the
tool charged and able to drive at least one fastener.
DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED
AIR PRESSURE

Do not exceed the maximum air pressure marked on
the tool. Be sure the air pressure gauge is operating
properly and check it at least twice a day.
Never use any bottled air or gases such as oxygen to
operate the tool since they could cause the tool
explode.

USE ONLY PASLODE RECOMMENDED PARTS AND
FASTENERS
Use only parts and fasteners specifically designed and
recommended by Paslode for use in the tool and for
work to be done. Using unauthorized parts and fasteners
or modifying the tool in any way creates dangerous
situations. Replace all missing warning labels---refer
to tool schematic for correct placement and part
number.
