General Safety Rules – For All
Battery Operated Tools
WARNING! Read and understand all
instructions. Failure to follow all instruc-
tions listed below may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmos-
pheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away
while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry
the tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords may create a fire.
• A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a
separate battery pack must be recharged only
with the specified charger for the battery. A charg-
er that may be suitable for one type of battery may
create a risk of fire when used with another battery.
• Use battery operated tool only with the specifical-
ly designed battery pack. Use of any other batteries
may create a risk of fire.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use tool while tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inatten-
tion while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury,
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
elry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing,
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose cloth-
ing, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving
parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should
also be avoided.
• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the
locked or OFF position before inserting battery
pack. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or
inserting the battery pack into a tool with the switch on
invites accidents. Be sure contact trip is also in the
locked off position. This prevents nailer from accidental discharge.
• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turn-
ing the tool on. A wrench or key that is left attached
to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal
injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protec-
tion. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection must be used for appropriate
conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body is
unstable and may lead to a loss of control.
• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your
application. The correct tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it is designed.
• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the
switch in the locked or off position before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventative safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
• Store idle tools out of reach of children and other
untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
• 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 sparks, burns, or a fire.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp
and clean. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition
that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged,
have the tool serviced before using. Many acci-
dents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by
the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that
may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous
when used on another tool.
SERVICE
• Tool service must be performed only by qualified
repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed
by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the Maintenance section of this manual.
Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance Instructions may create a risk
of electric shock or injury.
Important Safety
Instructions for Nailers
WARNING: When using any nailer, all safety
precautions, as outlined below, should be followed to avoid the risk of death or serious
injury. Read and understand all instructions
before operating the tool.
• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring.
Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed
metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the
operator.
• Actuating tool may result in flying
debris, collation material, or dust which
could harm operator’s eyes. The operator
and all those persons in the general area
should wear safety glasses with permanently attached side shields. Approved
safety glasses are imprinted with the characters “Z87.1”. 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)
• Always wear appropriate personal hear-
ing and other protection during use.
Under some conditions and duration of use,
noise from this product may contribute to
hearing loss. (Fig. A)
• Disconnect battery pack from the tool
whenever clearing a jam, performing any
maintenance or repair, moving the tool
or when the tool is unattended.
• Do not remove, tamper with, or otherwise cause the tool, trigger, contact trip
lock-off, or contact trip to become inoperable. Do not tape or tie trigger or contact
trip in the on position. Do not remove spring
from contact trip. Uncontrolled discharge
could result.
• Do not operate a tool if any portion of the
tool, trigger, contact trip lock-off, or contact trip is inoperable, disconnected,
altered, or not working properly.
Damaged parts or missing parts should be
repaired or replaced before use.
• Do not alter or modify the tool in any way.
• Always assume that the tool contains
fasteners.

• Do not point the tool at co-workers or
yourself at any time. No horseplay! Work
safe! Respect the tool as a working implement. (Fig. B)
• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
When the tool is not in use, it should
be locked in a safe place out of reach of
children.
• Do not carry the tool from place to place
holding the trigger. Accidental discharge
could result.
• Always use contact trip lock-off when
tool is not in immediate use. Using the
contact trip lock-off will prevent accidental
discharge.
• Do not overreach. Maintain proper footing
and balance at all times. (Fig. C)
• Use the tool only for its intended use. Do
not discharge fasteners into open air,
concrete, stone, extremely hard woods,
knots or any material too hard for the
fastener to penetrate. Discharged fasten-
ers may follow unexpected path and cause
injury. (Figs. D, F)
• Do not use the body of the tool or top
cap as a hammer.
• Always keep fingers clear of nail track of
magazine to prevent injury from inadvertent release of the pusher. (Fig. G)
• Refer to the Maintenance and Repairs
sections for detailed information on the
proper maintenance of the tool.
• Always operate the tool in a clean, lighted area. Be sure the work surface is clear
of any debris and be careful not to lose footing when working in elevated environments
such as rooftops.
• Do not drive fasteners near edge of
material. The workpiece may split causing
the fastener to ricochet, injuring you or a coworker. Be aware that the nail may follow
the grain of the wood (shiner), causing it to
protrude unexpectedly from the side of the
work material. Drive the chisel point of the
nail perpendicular to the grain to reduce risk
of injury. (Figs. E, F, L)
• Keep hands and body parts clear of
immediate work area. Hold workpiece with
clamps when necessary to keep hands and
body out of potential harm. Be sure the
workpiece is properly secured before pressing the nailer against the material. The contact trip may cause the work material to shift
unexpectedly. (Fig. G)
• Do not use tool in the presence of flam-
mable dust, gases or fumes.The tool may
produce a spark that could ignite gases
causing a fire. Driving a nail into another
nail may also cause a spark. (Fig. H)
• Keep face and body parts away from
back of the tool cap when working in
restricted areas. Sudden recoil can result
in impact to the body, especially when nailing into hard or dense material. (Fig. I)
BUMP/SEQUENTIAL SELECTOR SWITCH
Sequential Action (Fig. J)
• When using the tool in sequential
action, do not actuate the tool unless
the tool is placed firmly against the
workpiece.
Bump Action (Fig. K)
• When using the tool in bump action, be
careful of unintentional double fires
resulting from tool recoil. Unwanted fas-
teners may be driven if the contact trip is
allowed to accidentally re-contact the work
surface.
TO AVOID DOUBLE FIRES:
• Do not engage the tool against the
work surface with a strong force.
• Allow the tool to recoil fully after
each actuation.
• Use sequential action trigger.
• When “bump” actuating the finish nailer,
always keep tool in control. Inaccurate
placement of tool can result in misdirected
discharge of a fastener.
• Do not drive nails onto the heads of other
fasteners. Strong recoil, jammed fasteners,
or ricocheted nails may result. (Fig. L)
• Be aware of material thickness when
using nailer. A protruding nail may cause
injury.
• DEPTH ADJUSTMENT: To reduce risk of
serious injury from accidental actuation
when attempting to adjust depth,
ALWAYS;
• Remove battery pack.
• Engage contact trip lock-off (Fig. M).
• Avoid contact with trigger during adjustments
• Do not drive nails blindly into walls,
floors or other work areas. Fasteners driven into live electrical wires, plumbing, or
other types of obstructions can result in
injury. (Fig. N)
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use tool while tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.

Important Safety Instructions
for Battery Packs
Your tool uses a DEWALT battery pack. When ordering replacement
battery packs, be sure to include catalog number and voltage:
Extended Run-Time battery packs deliver more run-time than standard battery packs. Consult the chart at the end of this manual for
compatibility of chargers and battery packs.
NOTE: Your tool will accept either standard or Extended Run Time
battery packs. However, be sure to select proper voltage. Batteries
slowly lose their charge when they are not on the charger, the best
place to keep your battery is on the charger at all times.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. Before using
the battery pack and charger, read the safety instructions below.
Then follow charging procedures outlined.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn out. The battery pack can explode
in a fire.
• A small leakage of liquid from the battery pack cells may
occur under extreme usage or temperature conditions. This
