Personal safety

fStay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when

operating a pneumatic tool. Do not use a pneumatic tool while tired

or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment

of inattention while operating a pneumatic tool may result in personal

injury.

fUse personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.

Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard

hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce

personal injuries.

fPrevent unintentional starting. Make sure that the pneumatic tool

is switched off before connecting it to the air supply, picking it up

or carrying it. When your finger is on the On/Off switch while carrying

the pneumatic tool or when connecting the pneumatic tool to the air

supply while it is switched on, accidents can occur.

fRemove any adjustment tools before switching on the pneumatic

tool. A wrench or key left attached to a rotating part of a pneumatic tool

may result in personal injury.

fDo not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

This enables better control of the pneumatic tool in unexpected situa-

tions.

fDress 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.

fIf 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.

fDo not directly inhale the exhaust air. Avoid exposing the eyes to

exhaust air. The pneumatic tool’s exhaust air can contain water, oil,

metal particles and debris from the compressor. This can cause dam-

age to one‘s health.

Pneumatic tool use and care

fUse the clamping devices or a vice to secure and support the work-

piece. Holding the workpiece by hand or against your body will not al-

low for safe operation of the pneumatic tool.

fDo not overload the pneumatic tool. Use the pneumatic tool intend-

ed for your work. The correct pneumatic tool will do the job better and

safer at the rate for which it is designed.

fDo not use a pneumatic tool that has a defective On/Off switch. A

pneumatic tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous

and must be repaired.

fDisconnect the air supply before making any adjustments, chang-

ing accessories, or placing the pneumatic tool aside. This safety

measure prevents accidental starting of the pneumatic tool.

fStore idle pneumatic tools out of the reach of children. Do not allow

persons unfamiliar with the pneumatic tool or these instructions to

operate the device. Pneumatic tools are dangerous in the hands of un-

trained users.

fMaintain the pneumatic tool with care. Check for misalignment or

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition

that may affect the pneumatic tool’s operation. Have damaged

parts repaired before using the pneumatic tool.

Many accidents are

caused by poorly maintained pneumatic tools.

fUse the pneumatic tool, accessories, application tools, etc. accord-

ing to these instructions. Take into consideration the working con-

ditions and the activities to be carried out. Use of the pneumatic tool

for operations different from those intended could result in hazardous

situations.

Service

fHave your pneumatic tool repaired only through a qualified repair

person and only using original replacement parts. This will ensure

that the safety of the pneumatic tool is maintained.

Safety Warnings for Compressed-air Nailers/Staplers

Wear safety goggles.

fAlways assume that the pneumatic tool is loaded with fasteners.

Careless handling of the pneumatic tool can lead to unexpected shot

actuation of fasteners and cause injury.

fWhen working, hold the pneumatic tool in such a manner that your

head and body cannot be injured in case of sudden kickback due to

a malfunction of the energy supply or from hard objects/locations

in the workpiece.

fNever point the pneumatic tool at yourself or at persons close by.

Unexpected actuation will expel a fastener, which can lead to injury.

fDo not actuate the pneumatic tool until firmly placed against the

workpiece. When the pneumatic tool is not in contact with the work-

piece, the fastener can bounce away from the fastening point and over-

load the pneumatic tool.

Do not work on ladders or scaffolds when the actuation

system “Contact actuation” is set. In particular, do not

move from one fastening location to another, close

boxes or enclosures, or fasten transport-securing fix-

tures on e.g., vehicles and waggons, via scaffolds, stairs, ladders or

ladder-like constructions, such as roof battens. With this actuation

system, a fastener will be discharged each time when accidentally apply-

ing the pneumatic tool while the discharge lock-off is pressed in. This can

lead to injury.

fObserve the conditions of the job site. It is possible that fasteners

can burst through thin workpieces or be deflected when working in cor-

ners or against edges, and harm persons.

Disconnect the air supply, when the fastener is

jammed in the pneumatic tool. When the pneumatic tool

is still connected to the power supply, it can accidentally

be actuated when removing a jammed fastener.

fUse caution when removing a jammed or stuck fastener. The sys-

tem can be under tension and cause the fastener to be shot or thrust

out, while attempting to clear the jam.

fDo not use this to pneumatic tool to fasten electrical wiring. It is not

suitable for fastening electrical wiring, can damage the insulation of

electric cables and thus lead to electric shock and danger of fire.

fNever use oxygen or flammable gases as the energy source for the

pneumatic tool. Flammable gases are dangerous and can cause the

pneumatic tool to explode.

fUse appropriate detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in

the work area or call the local utility company for assistance. Con-

tact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a

gas line can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property

damage or may cause an electric shock.

fThe pneumatic tool may only be connected to lines, for which the

maximal permissible pressure of the pneumatic tool cannot be ex-
