WARNING: It is an employer's responsibility
to enforce the use of safety eye protection
equipment by the tool operators and by other
persons in the immediate working area.
For Australia and New Zealand only
Always wear safety glasses and face shield to
protect your eyes from dust or fastener injury.
Thesafetyglassesandthefaceshieldshould
conformwiththerequirementsofAS/NZS1336.
2.

3.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating
the tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
4. Illuminate the work area sufciently.
5.
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.
Safety devices
1. Make sure all safety systems are in working
order before operation. Thetoolmustnotoper-

2. Do not play with the contact element: it pre-
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

Loading fasteners
1. Do not load the tool with fasteners when any
one of the operating controls is activated.
2. Use only fasteners specied in this manual.

functionofthetool.
Power source
1. Never connect the tool to compressed air line
where the air pressure can exceed the suitable
air pressure range of the tool, specied in the
"SPECIFICATIONS" table, by 10%. Make sure
that the pressure supplied by the compressed air
system does not exceed the suitable air pressure
rangeofthetool.Settheairpressureinitiallyto
thelowervalueofthesuitableairpressurerange.
2. When using the tool operated by compressed
air, particular attention must be paid to avoid
exceeding the maximum allowable pressure.
3. Operate the tool at the lowest pressure
required for the application, in order to prevent
unnecessarily high noise levels, increased
wear and resulting failures.
4. Never use the tool with other than compressed
air.Ifbottledgas(carbondioxide,oxygen,
nitrogen,hydrogen,air,etc.)orcombustiblegas
