WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, read the
instruction manual.
General power tool safety warnings
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and
all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below
refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery
operated (cordless) power tool.
1 WORK AREA SAFETY
a)
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a)
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the
plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
b)
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
d)
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension
cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3 PERSONAL SAFETY
a)
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power
MODEL F16
10
MODEL F16
BradNailer F16 Op Man_NEW.qxd 18/8/08 1:39 PM Page 10

tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off
position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the
power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power
tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4 POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a)
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tools operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g)
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in
accordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5 BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a)
Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting
battery pack.
Inserting the battery pack into power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
b)
Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
c) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery
packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and
fire.
d)
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other
metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or
other small metal objects that can make a connection
from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a
fire.
e)
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the
battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush
with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only. Always
check that the battery pack voltage corresponds to the voltage on
the rating plate. Also make sure that the voltage of your charger
corresponds to that of your mains.
Your Powers F16 charger is double insulated in
accordance with EN 60335; therefore no earth
wire is required.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a specially
prepared cord available through the Powers service organization.
MAINS PLUG REPLACEMENT (U.K. & IRELAND ONLY)
• Should your mains plug need replacing and you are competent
to do this, proceed as instructed below. If you are in doubt,
contact an authorized Powers repair agent or a qualified
electrician.
• Disconnect the plug from the supply.
• Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely; a plug with bared
copper conductors is dangerous if engaged in a live socket
outlet.
• Only fit 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs fitted with the
correctly rated fuse (1).
• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked at the
connection points of most good quality plugs. Attach the wires
to their respective points in the plug (see below). Brown is for
Live (L) (2) and Blue is for Neutral (N) (4).
• Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug ensure that
the cable restraint (3) is holding the outer sheath of the cable
firmly and that the two leads are correctly fixed at the terminal
screws.
Never use a light socket.
Never connect the live (L) or neutral (N) wires to
the earth pin marked E or .
USING AN EXTENSION CABLE
An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use

Der in diesem Informationsblatt angegebene
Vibrationsemissionsgrad wurde nach Maßgabe eines
standardisierten Tests, wie in EN 60745 vorgegeben, gemessen
und kann zum Vergleich von Werkzeugen verwendet werden. Er
kann zu einer vorläufigen Einschätzung der Exposition verwendet
werden.
WARNUNG: Der angegebene
Vibrationsemissionswert steht für die
Hauptanwendungen des Werkzeugs. Falls das
Werkzeug jedoch für andere Anwendungen oder
mit anderem Zubehör benutzt oder schlecht
instandgehalten wird, kann die
Vibrationsemission verschieden sein. Dies kann
den Expositionsgrad über die gesamte
Arbeitsdauer erheblich steigern.
Eine Schätzung des Vibrationsaussetzungsgrades
sollte ebenfalls berücksichtigen, ob das
Werkzeug abgeschaltet ist, oder ob es einfach
nur eingeschaltet ist ohne für Arbeiten benutzt
zu werden. Dies kann den Expositionsgrad über
die gesamte Arbeitsdauer erheblich verringern.

WARNUNG: Zur Reduzierung der Verletzungsgefahr
bitte die Bedienungsanleitung lesen.
Allgemeine Warnhinweise zur Sicherheit von
Elektrowerkzeugen
WARNUNG! Lesen Sie sämtliche
Sicherheitswarnhinweise und sonstigen
Anweisungen. Die Nichteinhaltung der
nachstehend aufgeführten Warnhinweise und
sonstigen Anweisungen kann einen elektrischen
Schlag, Brand und/oder schwere Verletzungen
verursachen.
Bewahren Sie alle Warnhinweise und sonstigen
Anweisungen zur künftigen Bezugnahme auf.
Der nachfolgend verwendete Begriff "Gerät" bezieht sich auf
netzbetriebene Geräte (mit Netzkabel) und auf akkubetriebene
Geräte (ohne Netzkabel).
1 ARBEITSBEREICH-SICHERHEIT
a)
Halten Sie Ihren Arbeitsbereich sauber und gut
ausgeleuchtet.
Unordnung und dunkle Arbeitsbereiche fordern Unfälle
geradezu heraus.
b) Arbeiten Sie mit Geräten nicht in explosionsgefährdeter
Umgebung, in der sich brennbare Flüssigkeiten, Gase oder
Stäube befinden.
Geräte erzeugen Funken, die den Staub oder die Dämpfe
entzünden können.
c) Halten Sie Kinder und andere Personen während der
Benutzung des Gerätes fern.
Bei Ablenkung können Sie die Kontrolle verlieren.
2 ELEKTRISCHE SICHERHEIT
a)
Der Anschlußstecker des Gerätes muß in die Steckdose
passen. Der Stecker darf in keiner Weise verändert
werden. Verwenden Sie keine Adapterstecker gemeinsam
mit schutzgeerdeten Geräten.
Unveränderte Stecker und passende Steckdosen verringern das
Risiko eines elektrischen Schlages.
b) Vermeiden Sie Körperkontakt mit geerdeten Oberflächen
von Rohren, Heizungen, Herden und Kühlschränken.
Es besteht ein erhöhtes Risiko eines elektrischen Schlags, wenn
Ihr Körper geerdet ist.
c)
Halten Sie Geräte von Regen und Nässe fern.
Das Eindringen von Wasser in ein Gerät erhöht das Risiko
eines elektrischen Schlages.
d) Mißbrauchen Sie nicht das Kabel. Verwenden Sie das
Kabel niemals zum Tragen, Ziehen oder Trennen des
Gerätes vom Netz. Halten Sie das Kabel fern von Hitze, Öl,
scharfen Kanten oder sich bewegenden Teilen.
Beschädigte oder verwickelte Kabel erhöhen das Risiko eines
elektrischen Schlages.
e) Wenn Sie mit einem Gerät im Freien arbeiten, verwenden
Sie nur Verlängerungskabel, die auch für den
Außenbereich zugelassen sind.
Die Verwendung eines für den Außenbereich geeigneten
Verlängerungskabels verringert das Risiko eines elektrischen
Schlages.
3 SICHERHEIT VON PERSONEN
a)
Seien Sie aufmerksam, achten Sie darauf, was Sie tun, und
gehen Sie vernünftig mit einem Gerät um. Benutzen Sie
das Gerät nicht, wenn Sie müde sind oder unter dem
Einfluß von Drogen, Alkohol oder Medikamenten stehen.
Ein Moment der Unachtsamkeit beim Gebrauch von Geräten
kann zu ernsthaften Verletzungen führen.
b) Verwenden Sie Schutzausrüstung. Tragen Sie stets einen
Augenschutz.
Schutzausrüstung wie Staubmaske, rutschfeste
Sicherheitsschuhe, Schutzhelm oder Gehörschutz, je nach Art
und Einsatz des Gerätes, verringert das Risiko von
Verletzungen.

c) Vermeiden Sie eine unbeabsichtigte Inbetriebnahme.
Stellen Sie sicher, daß sich der Schalter in der Aus-Stellung
befindet, bevor das Gerät mit dem Netz verbunden wird.
Durch das Tragen des Gerätes mit dem Finger am Schalter oder
durch das Verbinden eingeschalteter Geräte werden Unfälle
provoziert.
d) Entfernen Sie Einstell- oder Schraubenschlüssel, bevor Sie
das Gerät einschalten.
Ein Schlüssel, der sich in einem sich drehenden Teil befindet,
kann zu Verletzungen führen.
e) Nicht zu weit nach vorne strecken! Achten Sie auf einen
sicheren Stand, um in jeder Arbeitsposition das
Gleichgewicht zu halten.
Dadurch können Sie das Gerät in unerwarteten Situationen
besser unter Kontrolle halten.
f) Tragen Sie geeignete Kleidung. Tragen Sie keine weite
Kleidung oder Schmuck. Halten Sie Haare, Kleidung und
Handschuhe fern von sich bewegenden Teilen.
Lockere Kleidung, Schmuck oder lange Haare können von sich
bewegenden Teilen erfaßt werden.
g) Falls Staubabsaug- undfangvorrichtungen vorhanden sind,
vergewissern Sie sich, daß diese angeschlossen sind und
richtig verwendet werden.
Die Verwendung von Staubfangeinrichtungen kann die mit
Staub verbundenen Gefahren verringern.
4 GEBRAUCH UND PFLEGE VON GERÄTEN
a)
Überlasten Sie das Gerät nicht. Verwenden Sie für Ihre
Arbeit das dafür bestimmte Gerät.
Mit dem passenden Gerät arbeiten Sie besser und sicherer im
angegebenen Leistungsbereich.
b) Benutzen Sie kein Gerät, dessen Schalter defekt ist.
Ein Gerät, das sich nicht mehr ein- oder ausschalten läßt, ist
gefährlich und muß repariert werde
c) Trennen Sie den Stecker von der Stromquelle und/oder das
Akkupaket vom Elektrowerkzeug, bevor Einstellungen
vorgenommen, Zubehör gewechselt oder
Elektrowerkzeuge verstaut werden.
Diese Vorsichtsmaßnahmen verhindern den unbeabsichtigten
Start des Gerätes.
d) Bewahren Sie unbenutzte Geräte außerhalb der
Reichweite von Kindern auf. Lassen Sie Geräte nicht von
Personen benutzen, die damit nicht vertraut sind oder
diese Anweisungen nicht gelesen haben.
Geräte sind gefährlich, wenn Sie von unerfahrenen Personen
benutzt werden.
e) Halten Sie Geräte in einem einwandfreien Zustand.
Kontrollieren Sie, ob bewegliche Teile falsch ausgerichtet
sind oder klemmen und ob Teile gebrochen oder so
beschädigt sind, daß die Funktion des Geräts
beeinträchtigt ist. Lassen Sie beschädigte Geräte vor dem
Gebrauch reparieren.
Viele Unfälle haben ihre Ursache in schlecht gewarteten
Geräten.
f)
Halten Sie Schneidgeräte scharf und sauber.
Sorgfältig gepflegte Schneidgeräte mit scharfen Schneidkanten
verklemmen sich weniger und sind leichter zu führen.
g) Verwenden Sie das Elektrowerkzeug, Zubehör sowie
Werkzeug-Bits, usw. entsprechend diesen Anweisungen.
Berücksichtigen Sie dabei die Arbeitsbedingungen sowie
die durchzuführende Arbeit.
Der Gebrauch von Geräten für andere als die vorgesehenen
Anwendungen kann zu gefährlichen Situationen führen.
5 GEBRAUCH UND PFLEGE VON AKKUWERKZEUGEN
a)
Stellen Sie sicher, daß das Werkzeug ausgeschaltet ist,
bevor Sie den Akku einsetzen.
Das Einsetzen eines Akkus in ein eingeschaltetes Werkzeug
kann zu Unfällen führen.
b) Laden Sie die Akkus nur in Ladegeräten auf, die vom
Hersteller angegeben wurden.
Für ein Ladegerät, das nur für eine bestimmte Akkuart
geeignet ist, besteht Brandgefahr, wenn es mit anderen Akkus
verwendet wird.
c) Verwenden Sie nur die für die Werkzeuge vorgesehenen
Akkus.
Der Gebrauch von anderen Akkus kann zu Verletzungen und
Brandgefahr führen.
d) Halten Sie den nicht benutzten Akku fern von
Büroklammern, Münzen, Schlüsseln, Nägeln, Schrauben
oder anderen kleinen Metallgegenständen, die eine
Überbrückung der Kontakte verursachen könnten.
Ein Kurzschluss zwischen den Akkukontakten kann
Verbrennungen oder Feuer zur Folge haben.
e)
Bei falscher Anwendung kann Flüssigkeit aus dem Akku austreten.
Vermeiden Sie den Kontakt damit. Bei unbeabsichtigtem Kontakt
mit Wasser abspülen. Gelangt die Flüssigkeit in die Augen, ziehen
Sie außerdem ärztliche Hilfe hinzu.
Austretende Akkuflüssigkeit kann zu Hautreizungen oder
Verbrennungen führen.
6 SERVICE
a)
Lassen Sie Ihr Gerät nur von qualifiziertem Fachpersonal
und nur mit Original-Ersatzteilen reparieren.
Damit wird gewährleistet, daß die Sicherheit des Geräts
erhalten bleibt.
