SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS
LOADING TOOL
OPERATION
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.
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.
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
CAN/CSA Z89.1 is used.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area,
and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Do not use oxygen, combustible gases, or bottled gases as a power source for this tool
as tool may explode, possibly causing injury.
Do not use supply sources which can potentially exceed 200 P.S.I.G. as tool may burst,
possibly causing injury.
The connector on the tool must not hold pressure when air supply is disconnected. If
a wrong fitting is used, the tool can remain charged with air after disconnecting and
thus will be able to drive a fastener even after the air line is disconnected possibly
causing injury.
Do not pull trigger or depress contact arm while connected to the air supply as the tool
may cycle, possibly causing injury.
Always disconnect air supply: 1.) Before making adjustments; 2.) When servicing the
tool; 3.) When clearing a jam; 4.) When tool is not in use; 5.) When moving to a different
work area, as accidental actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.
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 pull the trigger or depress the
trip as accidental actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.
Always handle the tool with care: 1.) Never engage in horseplay; 2.) Never pull the
trigger 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.
The operator must not hold the trigger pulled on contact arm 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 arm tool may
bounce from the recoil of driving a fastener and an unwanted second fastener may be
driven possibly causing injury.
Check operation of the contact arm mechanism frequently. Do not use the tool if the
arm is not working correctly as accidental driving of a fastener may result. Do not
interfere with the proper operation of the contact arm mechanism.
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.
