Actuating tool may result in flying debris,
collation material, or dust which could harm
operator’
s eyes. Operator and others in work
area MUST wear safety glasses with side
shields. These safety glasses must conform to
ANSI Z87.1 requirements (approved glases have
“Z87” printed or stamped on them). It is the
employer’s responsibility to enforce the use of
eye protection equipment by the tool operator
and other people in the work area. (Fig. A)

[Not to exceed 120 psi (8.3 bar).] Do not
connect the tool to a compressor rated at over
175 psi. The tool operating pressure must never
exceed 175 psi even in the event of regulator
failure. (Fig.

Only use an air hose that is rated for a
maximum working pressur

(10.3 bar) or 150% of the maximum system
pressure, whichever is greater. (Fig. D)

tled compressed gases such as oxygen,
carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen, propane,

use. Always disconnect tool from air supply
and remove fasteners fr
om magazine before
leaving the area or passing the tool to another
operator. Do not carry tool to another work
area in which changing location involves the
use of scaffoldings, stairs, ladders, and the
like, with air supply connected. Do not make
adjustments, remove magazine, perform
maintenance or clear jammed fasteners while
connected to the air supply. If the contact trip
is adjusted when the tool is connected to the air
supply and nails are loaded, accidental discharge
may occur. (Fig. G)
Connect tool to air supply before loading
fasteners to prevent an unintentional fastener
discharge during connection. The tool driving
mechanism may cycle when the tool is connected
to the air supply. Do not load fasteners with the
trigger or the contact trip depressed to prevent
unintentional driving.
