5. HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION
5.1 GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER TOOL USE
When using any type of power tool there are steps that should be taken to make sure that
you, as the user, remain safe.
Common sense and a respect for the tool will help reduce the risk of injury.
Read the instruction manual fully. Do not attempt any operation until you have read and
understood this manual.
Most important you must know how to safely start and stop this machine, especially in an
emergency.
Keep the work area tidy and clean. Attempting to clear clutter from around the machine
during use will reduce your concentration. Mess on the floor creates a trip hazard. Any
liquid spilt on the floor could result in you slipping.
Find a suitable location. If the machine is bench mounted; the location should provide good
natural light or artificial lighting as a replacement. Avoid damp and dust locations as it will
have a negative effect on the machine’s performance.
If the machine is portable; do not expose the tool to rain. In all cases do not operate power
tools near any flammable materials.
Keep bystanders away. Children, onlookers and passers by must be restricted from entering
the work area for their own protection. The barrier must extend a suitable distance from the
tool user.
Disconnect and house all power tools that are not in use. An air tool should never be left
unattended while connected to the power supply. They must be housed in a suitable
location, away locked up and from children.
Do not overload or misuse the tool. All tools are designed for a purpose and are limited to
what they are capable of doing. Do not attempt to use a power tool (or adapt it in any way)
for an application it is not designed for. Select a tool appropriate for the size of the job.
Overloading a tool will result in tool failure and user injury: This covers the use of
accessories.
Dress properly. Loose clothing, long hair and jewellery are all dangerous because they can
become entangled in moving machinery: This can also result in parts of body being pulled
into the machine.
Clothing should be close fitted, with any long hair tired back and jewellery and neck ties
removed. Footwear must be fully enclosed and have a nonslip sole.
Wear personal protective equipment (PPE). Dust, noise, vibration and swarf can all be
dangerous if not suitably protected against. If the work involving the power tool creates dust
or fumes; wear a dust mask. Vibration to the hand, caused by operating some tools for
longer periods must be protected against. Wear vibration reducing gloves and allow long
breaks between uses. Protect against dust and swarf by wearing approved safety goggles or
a face shield. These are some of the more common hazards and preventions; however,
always find out what hazards are associated with the machine/work process and wear the
most suitable protective equipment available.
Do not breathe contaminated air. If the work creates dust or fumes; connect the machine (if
possible) to an extraction system either locally or remotely. Working outdoors can also help
if possible.

5. HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION
Move the machine as instructed. If the machine is hand held, do not carry it by the air line.
If the product is heavy; employ a second or third person to help move it safely or use a
mechanical device. Always refer to the instructions for the correct method.
Do not overreach. Extending your body too far can result in a loss of balance and you
falling. This could be from a height or onto a machine and will result in injury.
Maintain your tools correctly. A well maintained tool will do the job safely. Replace any
damaged or missing parts immediately with original parts from the manufacturer. As
applicable; keep blades sharp; moving parts clean, oiled or greased; handles clean; and
emergency devices working.
Wait for the machine to stop. Unless the machine is fitted with a safety brake; some parts
may continue to move due to momentum. Wait for all parts to stop; then disconnect it from
the air line before making any adjustments, carrying out maintenance operations or just
finishing using the tool.
Remove and check setting tools. Some machinery requires the use of additional tools or keys
to set, load or adjust the power tool. Before starting the power tool always check to make
certain they have been removed and are safely away from the machine.
Prevent unintentional starting. Before connecting any machine in to the air supply, make
sure the switch is in the OFF position. If the machine is portable; do not hold the machine
near the switch and take care when putting the machine down; that nothing can operate the
switch.
Concentrate and stay alert. Distractions are likely to cause an accident. Never operate a
power tool if you are under the influence of drugs (prescription or otherwise), including
alcohol or if you are feeling tired. Being disorientated will result in an accident.
Have this tool repaired by a qualified person. This tool is designed to confirm to the relevant
international and local standards and as such should be maintained and repaired by someone
qualified; using only original parts supplied by the manufacturer: This will ensure the tool
remains safe to use.

5. HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION
5.2 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR AIR STAPLER/NAILER
- Only those fasteners listed in the operating instructions may be used in the fastener
driving tools.
- Do not use on scaffoldings and ladders.
- Check prior to each operation that the safety and triggering mechanism is functioning
properly and that all nuts and bolts are tight.
- Do not carry out any alterations to the fastener driving tool.
- Do not disassemble or make inoperative any parts of the fastener driving tool such as the
safety yoke.
- Do not perform any “emergency repairs” without appropriate equipment.
- The fastener driving tool should be serviced properly and at regular intervals in
accordance with the manufacturers instructions.
- Avoid weakening or damaging the tool, for example by:
- punching or engraving;
- modification not authorised by the manufacturer;
- guiding against templates made of hard material such as steel;
- dropping or pushing across the floor;
- using the equipment as a hammer;
- applying excessive force of any kind.
Never point any operational fastener driving tool at yourself or at any other person.
Hold the fastener driving tool during the work operation in such a way that no injuries can
be caused to the head or to the body in the event of a possible recoil consequent upon a
disruption in the energy supply or hard areas within the workpiece.
Never actuate the fastener driving tool into free space. This will avoid any hazard caused by
free flying fasteners and excessive strain of the tool,
The tool shall be disconnected from the compressed air system for the purpose of
transportation, especially where ladders are used or where physical posture is adopted whilst
moving.
Carry the fastener driving tool at the workplace using only the handle, and never with the
trigger actuated.
Take conditions at the workplace into account. Fasteners can penetrate thin workpieces or
slip off corners and edges of workpieces, and thus put people at risk.
For personal safety, use protective equipment such as hearing and eye protection.
- Only those fasteners which are specified in the operating instructions (see Specification)
shall be used in fastener driving tools. The fastener driving tool and the fasteners
specified in the operating instructions are to be considered as one unit safety system;
- Quick-action couplings shall be used for connection to the compressed air system and the
non-sealable nipple must be fitted at the tool in such a way that no compressed air
remains in the tool after disconnection;
- Oxygen or combustible gases shall not be used as an energy source for compressed air
operated fastener driving tools;
- Fastener driving tools shall only be connected to an air-supply where the maximum
allowable pressure of the tool cannot be exceeded by more than 10%; in case of the
higher pressures, a pressure reducing valve which includes a downstream safety valve
shall be built into the compressed air supply.

5. HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION
5.3 RESIDUAL RISK
Important note:
- Although the safety instructions and operating manuals for our tools contain extensive
instructions of safe working with power tools, every power tool involves a certain
residual risk which can not be completely excluded by safety mechanisms. Power tools
must therefore always be operated with caution!

8. AIR SUPPLY
8.1 AIR TOOL OIL SPECIFICATION
Failure to follow these instructions will lead to premature malfunction of the equipment
which is not covered by the guarantee.
Air tool oil viscosity refers to it’s properties to flow and how it reacts with heat. A low
viscosity is thinner than a high viscosity.
Air tool oil becomes thinner as it heats so choosing the right viscosity is essential. If the
viscosity is too low it may provide insufficient lubrication when heated. Equally, if it is too
high, the fluid may provide excessive resistance to move through the lines when cold.
The ISO (International Standards Organisation) viscosity grading system measures the
kinematic viscosity in centistokes (cSt) at 40º which is todays accepted standard. The SAE
(Society of Automotive Engineers) viscosity grade value is based on a scale.
This equipment is suited to an ISO grade 22 – 32 (SAE grade 5W – 15W) monograde oil.
The oil must be constantly supplied to the equipment during use to ensure complete
lubrication and optimum performance is achieved. It also acts as a rust inhibitor when the
equipment is not in use.
We recommend the use of Draper Air Tool Oil:
250ml = Stock No.34679, 500ml = Stock No.34681, 1Litre = Stock No.34682.
This air tool operates at a maximum pressure of 115psi/8bar and must be controlled via a
combination pressure regulator, in-line lubricator and moisture filter such as the Draper
range (see you local Draper stockist) which with proper maintenance will ensure a constant
supply of dry air and lubricating oil at all times (see illustration below). Always check
machine operating pressure before use.
Water in the compressor tank will cause serious corrosion to your air tools and should be
drained daily to avoid excessive water in your air supply. Dirty wet air rapidly shortens the
life of your air tool.
If you are using an air tool on a hose over 25ft long it is advisable to increase the bore of the
hose to the next larger size available, i.e., ¼" increases
pressure and volume of air to power the machine.
