4.
Rushing the job or forcing the tool is danger-
ous. Handle the tool carefully. Do not operate
when under the influence of alcohol, drugs or
the like.
5.
General Tool Handling Guidelines:
Always assume that the tool contains
—
fasteners.
—
Do not point the tool toward yourself or
anyone whether it contains fasteners or
not.
—
Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is
placed firmly against the workpiece.
—
Respect the tool as a working implement.
—
No horseplay.
—
Do not hold or carry the tool with a finger
on the trigger.
—
Do not load the tool with fasteners when
any one of the operating controls is
activated.
—
Do not operate the tool with any power
source other than that specified in the
tool operating/safety instructions.
6.
An improperly functioning tool must not be
used.
7.
Sparks sometimes fly when the tool is used.
Do not use the tool near volatile, flammable
materials such as gasoline, thinner, paint, gas,
adhesives, etc.; they will ignite and explode,
causing serious injury.
8.
The area should be sufficiently illuminated to
assure safe operations. The area should be
clear and litter-free. Be especially careful to
maintain good footing and balance.
9.
Only those involved in the work should be in
the vicinity. Children especially must be kept
away at all times.
10. There may be local regulations concerning
noise which must be complied with by keeping
noise levels within prescribed limits. In certain
cases, shutters should be used to contain
noise.
Do not play with the contact element: it pre-
11.
vents accidental discharge, so it must be kept
on and not removed. Securing the trigger in
the ON position is also very dangerous. Never
attempt to fasten the trigger. Do not operate
a tool if any portion of the tool operating con-
trols is inoperable, disconnected, altered, or
not working properly.
12. Always check the tool for its overall condition
and loose screws before operation. Tighten as
required.
13. Make sure all safety systems are in working
order before operation. The tool must not
operate if only the trigger is pulled or if only
the contact element is pressed against the
wood. It must work only when both actions are
performed. Test for possible faulty operation
with nails unloaded and the pusher in fully
pulled position.
14. Check walls, ceilings, floors, roofing and
the like carefully to avoid possible electrical
shock, gas leakage, explosions, etc. caused by
striking live wires, conduits or gas pipes.
15. Use only nails specified in this manual. The
use of any other nails may cause malfunction
of the tool.
16. Do not permit those uninstructed to use the
tool.
17. Make sure no one is nearby before nailing.
Never attempt to nail from both the inside
and outside at the same time. Nails may rip
through and/or fly off, presenting a grave
danger.
18. Watch your footing and maintain your balance
with the tool. Make sure there is no one below
when working in high locations, and secure
the air hose to prevent danger if there is sud-
den jerking or catching.
19. On rooftops and other high locations, nail as
you move forward. It is easy to lose your foot-
ing if you nail while inching backward. When
nailing against perpendicular surface, nail
from the top to the bottom. You can perform
nailing operations with less fatigue by doing
so.
20. A nail will be bent or the tool can become
jammed if you mistakenly nail on top of
another nail or strike a knot in the wood. The
nail may be thrown and hit someone, or the
tool itself can react dangerously. Place the
nails with care.
21. Do not point the ejection port at anyone in the
vicinity. Keep hands and feet away from the
ejection port area.
•
Never carry the tool with your finger on the trigger
or hand it to someone in this condition. Accidental
firing can be extremely dangerous.
22. Handle the tool carefully, as there is high pres-
sure inside the tool that can be dangerous if a
crack is caused by rough handling (dropping
or striking). Do not attempt to carve or engrave
on the tool.
23. Stop nailing operations immediately if you
notice something wrong or out of the ordinary
with the tool.
•
Always remove the fuel cell, the battery cartridge
and all of the nails:
—
When unattended.
—
Before performing any maintenance or
repair.
—
Before cleaning a jam.
—
Before moving the tool to a new location.
24. Perform cleaning and maintenance right after
finishing the job. Keep the tool in tip-top condi-
tion. Lubricate moving parts to prevent rusting
and minimize friction-related wear. Wipe off all
dust from the parts.
25. Do not modify tool without authorization from
Makita.
26. Do not attempt to keep the trigger or contact
element depressed with tape or wire. Death or
serious injury may occur.
27. Always check contact element as instructed in
this manual. Nails may be driven accidentally if
the safety mechanism is not working correctly.
28. Ask Makita's Authorized service centers for
periodical inspection of the tool.
