1 It is necessary to read the Operator's Manual prior to operating a D
☐ True ☐ False
2 When fastening into concrete, the base material should be greater than the shank penetration by
at least: ☐ 1 time ☐ 2 times ☐ 3 times
3 When operating a powder actuated tool, your hand should never be placed:
☐ around the tool body ☐ in front of the tool muzzle ☐ over the tool handle
4 To determine the suitability of a base material, use the fastener as a center punch.
• If the fastener is blunted, do not fasten; the material is too:
☐ soft ☐ hard ☐brittle
• If the fastener penetrates easily, do not fasten; the material is too:
☐ soft ☐ hard ☐ brittle
• If the material cracks or shatters, do not fasten; the material is too:
☐ soft ☐ hard ☐ brittle
5 Unsafe applications for powder actuated tools may be caused by which of the following?
☐a soft base material ☐improper powder load ☐fastening too close to an unsupported edge
☐a malfunctioning tool ☐fastening into a spalled area ☐fastening through a pre-existing hole ☐all of the above
6 Which one of the following building materials is not suitable as a receiving material (base material) for powder actuated fasteners? ☐ sheet rock ☐ wood ☐ fiberglass ☐ sheet metal
☐ all of the above
7 When considering the safety of a particular application, the operator must think about:
☐ the base material ☐ the powder load power level ☐ the operator's safety
☐ the safety of bystanders and fellow workers ☐ all of the above

13 Piston overdrive is caused by overpowering of the tool or by discharging the tool against
a soft surface. ☐ True ☐False
14 Malfunctioning tools cannot be used and must be removed from service immediately.
15 After conducting a Center Punch Test,the best way to check the base material is to set several fasteners using the least powerful load. ☐ True ☐False
16 Eye protection and hearing protection should not be worn by the operator and any necessary bystanders when using the tool. ☐ True ☐False
17 A powder actuated tool cannot be safely used in an explosive or flammable atmosphere.
☐ True ☐False
