HAND-ARM VIBRATION
Employers are advised to refer to the HSE publication “Guide for Employers”.
All hand held power tools vibrate to some extent, and this vibration is transmitted to the operator via the handle, or hand used to steady the tool. Vibration from about 2 to 1500 herz is potentially damaging and is most hazardous in the range from about 5 to 20 herz.
Operators who are regularly exposed to vibration may suffer from Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS), which includes ‘dead hand’, ‘dead finger’, and ‘white finger’. These are painful conditions and are widespread in industries where vibrating tools are used.
The health risk depends upon the vibration level and the length of time of exposure to it……in effect, a daily vibration dose.
Tools are tested using specialised equipment, to approximate the vibration level generated under normal, acceptable operating conditions for the tool in question. For example, a grinder used at 45° on mild steel plate, or a sander on softwood in a horizontal plane etc.
These tests produce a value‘a’, expressed in metres per second per second, which represents the average vibration level of all tests taken, in three axes where necessary, and a second figure ‘K’, which represents the uncertainty factor, i.e. a value in excess of ‘a’, to which the tool could vibrate under normal conditions. These values appear in the declaration on page 7.
You will note that a third value is given in the specification - the highest measured reading in a single plane. This is the maximum level of vibration measured during testing in one of the axes, and this should also be taken into account when making a risk assessment.
a’ values in excess of 2.5 m/s2 are considered hazardous when used for prolonged periods. A tool with a vibration value of 2.8 m/s2 may be used for up to 8 hours (cumulative) per day, whereas a tool with a value of 11.2 m/s2 may be used for ½ hour per day only.
The graph below shows the vibration value against the maximum time the respective tool may be used, per day.
The uncertainty factor should also be taken into account when assessing a risk. The two figures ‘a’ and ‘K’may be added together and the resulant value used to assess the risk.
It should be noted that if a tool is used under abnormal, or unusual conditions, then the vibration level could possibly increase significantly. Users must always take this into account and make their own risk assessment, using the graph as a reference.

Hand Arm Vibration Statement ..................................................................... 8
Some tools with a high vibration value, such as impact wrenches, are generally used for a few seconds at a time, therefore the cumulative time may only be in the order of a few minutes per day. Nevertheless, the cumulative effect, particularly when added to that of other hand held power tools that may be used, must always be taken into account when the total daily dose rate is determined.
Please Note that details and specifications herein, are correct of time of going to print.
However CLARKE International reserve the right to change specifications at any time without prior notice.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR AIR PALM NAILERS
NEVER use combustible gases or other propellants to operate this tool. Use a regulated air supply ONLY.
NEVER point the tool at any person or animal.
NEVER free fire the tool at high pressure.
ALWAYS disconnect the tool from the air supply before performing any maintenance or during periods of non-operation.
ALWAYS inspect the tool before use and ensure the tool’s safety spring trigger is moving freely.
ALWAYS keep hands clear of the discharging area of the tool when connecting the air supply.
DO NOT exceed the maximum rated pressure for this tool 120psi / 8.3bar.
DO NOT keep the safety spring trigger depressed during the loading of fasteners as this could cause unintentional firing, resulting in serious personal injury.
DO NOT attempt to drive a fastener into the top of another fastener, doing so could cause the fastener to ricochet resulting in serious personal injury.
DO NOT drive fasteners into the edge of a work piece as this could cause the work piece to split allowing the fastener to ricochet free resulting in serious personal injury.
ONLY use fasteners which comply with the specifications of this tool.

SETUP AND OPERATION
AIR SYSTEM SETUP:
Use a clean, dry regulated compressed air supply at 4.9-6.9 bar (72-100 psi).
Never exceed the maximum air pressure (120 PSI), doing so will cause noise, misfiring and fast wearing of the tool.
When connecting the air supply always keep hands and body away from the discharge area of the tool.
A filter-regulator-lubrication is the preferred method of air supply and should be located as close to the tool as possible. (refer to fig.1).

Keep the air filter clean, a dirty filter will reduce the air pressure and cause a reduction in power and efficiency.
For better performance, install a quick connector in your tool and a quick coupler on the hose if possible.
Be sure all connections in the air supply system are sealed to prevent air loss.
OPERATION:
Insert a nail into the end of the tool (only holding the shank of the nail).
Align the tool square with the work piece.
Apply a downward pressure on the tool and drive the nail into the piece.
MAINTENANCE
If you use the tool without in-line lubrication then place 2 - 6 drops of pneumatic tool oil into the air inlet before each day or after 2 hours of continuous use.
Inspect the tool before every use, replace any worn or damaged parts to ensure the tool operates correctly and safely.
Regularly inspect the spring and safety mechanism to ensure that it operates correctly, check there are no loose or missing parts.
Keep the nose of the tool clean and free from any dirt or abrasive particles.
