Safety warnings
for using air nailers
Before using the nailer
• To prevent possible injuries, the operator and any other
person in the work area shall wear safety glasses with side
protection as well as protective helmets in compliance with
the Official Mexican Standards (NOM).
• Inspect the tool. Never operate a tool if the lock, the
trigger or the springs are not operating; are damaged or
lost. Do not make any modification to the lock, trigger or
springs.
While using the nailer
• To prevent accidental shots keep your fingers away from
the trigger when the tool is nor been used.
• Do not point the tool towards your body, people or
animals.
• Disconnect the tool from the air supply before loading
nails. Thus, preventing a staple will accidentally be shot
during the connection process.
• Do not try to insert a staple on the edge or near the edge
of the work piece. If the piece breaks or separates, it would
shoot the nails with enough power to cause injury.
• Shoot nails only towards the work surface. Never shoot
towards surfaces hard to penetrate on top of another
staple or having the tool in steep angle. This could make
the nails to bounce exposing the operator to severe injury.
• Do not try to load nails when the trigger is pressed. This
action shoots a staple unexpectedly.
• When moving the tool, only hold it by the handle. Never
activate the trigger while moving. Never carry the tool
holding it by the hose or pulling the hose to move the tool.
After using the nailer
• Disconnect the nailer from the air supply before carrying
out any maintenance or unblocking job when leaving the
work area or if giving it to another operator.
