• Do not point the tool at co-workers or
yourself at any time. No horseplay! Work
safe! Respect the tool as a working imple-
ment. (Fig. B)
• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a power tooL
Distractions can cause you to lose control
When the tool is not in use, it should
be locked in a safe place out of reach of
children.
• Do not carry the tool from place to place
holding the trigger. Accidental discharge
could result.
• Always use contact trip lock-off when
tool is not in immediate use. Using the
contact trip lock-off will prevent accidental
discharge.
• Do not overreach. Maintain proper footing
and balance at all times. (Fig. C)
• Use the tool only for its intended use. Do
not discharge fasteners into open air,
concrete, stone, extremely hard woods,
knots or any material too hard for the
fastener to penetrate. Discharged fasten-
ers may follow unexpected path and cause
injury. (Figs. D, F)
• Do not use the body of the tool or top
cap as a hammer.
• Always keep fingers clear of nail track of
magazine to prevent injury from inadver-
tent release of the pusher. (Fig. G)
• Refer to the Maintenance and Repairs
sections for detailed information on the
proper maintenance of the tooL
• Always operate the tool in a clean, light-
ed area. Be sure the work surface is clear
of any debris and be careful not to lose foot-
ing when working in elevated environments
such as rooftops.
• Do not drive fasteners near edge of
materiaL The workpiece may split causing
the fastener to ricochet, injuring you or a co-
worker. Be aware that the nail may follow
the grain of the wood (shiner), causing it to
protrude unexpectedly from the side of the
work material Drive the chisel point of the
nail perpendicular to the grain to reduce risk
of injury. (Figs. E, F, L)
• Keep hands and body parts clear of
immediate work area. Hold workpiece with
clamps when necessary to keep hands and
body out of potential harm. Be sure the
workpiece is properly secured before press-
ing the nailer against the material The con-
tact trip may cause the work material to shift
unexpectedly. (Fig. G)
• Do not use tool in the presence of flam-
mable dust, gases or fumes. The tool may

produce a spark that could ignite gases
causing a fire. Driving a nail into another
nail may also cause a spark. (Fig. H)
• Keep face and body parts away from
back of the tool cap when working in
restricted areas. Sudden recoil can result
in impact to the body, especially when nail-
ing into hard or dense material (Fig. I)
BUMP/SEQUENTIAL SELECTOR SWITCH
Sequential Action /" (Fig. J)
• When using the tool in sequential
action, do not actuate the tool unless
the tool is placed firmly against the
workpiece.
Bump Action iii (Fig. K)
• When using the tool in bump action, be
careful of unintentional double fires
resulting from tool recoil. Unwanted fas-
teners may be driven if the contact trip is
allowed to accidentally re-contact the work
surface.
TO AVOID DOUBLE FIRES:
• Do not engage the tool against the
work surface with a strong force.
• Allow the tool to recoil fully after
each actuation.
• Use sequential action trigger.
• When "'bump" actuating the finish nailer,
always keep tool in control Inaccurate
placement of tool can result in misdirected
discharge of a fastener.
• Do notdrive nails onto the heads of other
fasteners. Strong recoil, jammed fasteners,
or ricocheted nails may result. (Fig. L)
• Be aware of material thickness when
using nailer. A protruding nail may cause
injury.
• DEPTH ADJUSTMENT: To reduce risk of
serious injury from accidental actuation
when attempting to adjust depth,
ALWAYS;
• Remove battery pack.
• Engage contact trip lock-off (Fig. M).
• Avoid contact with trigger during adjust-
ments
• Do not drive nails blindly into walls,
floors or other work areas. Fasteners driv-
en into five electrical wires, plumbing, or
other types of obstructions can result in
injury. (Fig. N)
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool Do not use tool while tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.

Important Safety Instructions
for Battery Packs
Your tool uses a DEWALT battery pack. When ordering replacement
battery packs, be sure to include catalog number and voltage:
Extended Run-Time battery packs deliver more run-time than stan-
dard battery packs. Consult the chart at the end of this manual for
compatibility of chargers and battery packs.
NOTE: Your tool will accept either standard or Extended Run Time
battery packs. However, be sure to select proper voltage. Batteries
slowly lose their charge when they are not on the charger, the best
place to keep your battery is on the charger at all times.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. Before using
the battery pack and charger, read the safety instructions below.
Then follow charging procedures outlined.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not incinerate the batterypack even if it is severely dam-
aged or is completely worn out. The battery pack can explode
in a fire.
• A small leakage of liquid from the battery pack cells may
occur under extreme usage or temperature conditions. This
