INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING
TO A RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR
INJURY TO PERSONS
WARNING – When using tools, basic
precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
General
a. To reduce the risks of electric
shock, re, and injury to persons,
read all the instructions before
using the tool.
Work area
a. Keep the work area clean and well
lighted. Cluttered benches and dark
areas increase the risks of electric
shock, re, and injury to persons.
b. Do not operate the tool in
explosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of ammable liquids,
gases, or dust. The tool is able to
create sparks resulting in the ignition
of the dust or fumes.
c. Keep bystanders, children, and
visitors away while operating the
tool. Distractions are able to result in
the loss of control of the tool.
Personal safety
a. Stay alert. Watch what you are
doing and use common sense
when operating the tool. Do not
use the tool while tired or under
the inuence of drugs, alcohol, or
b. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Keep hair, clothing, and
gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair
increases the risk of injury to persons
as a result of being caught in moving
parts.
c. Avoid unintentional starting. Be
sure the trigger is released before
connecting to the air supply. Do not
carry the tool with your nger on the
trigger or connect the tool to the air
supply with the trigger pressed.
d. Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance
enables better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
e. Use safety equipment. A
dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes and a hard hat must
be used for the applicable
conditions. Wear heavy-duty work
gloves during use.
f. Always wear eye
protection. Wear ANSI-
approved safety goggles
with side shields.
g. Always wear hearing
protection when using
the tool. Prolonged
exposure to high intensity
noise is able to cause hearing loss.
h. Do not attach the hose or tool to
your body. Attach the hose to the
structure to reduce the risk of loss of
balance if the hose shifts.

i. Always assume that the tool
contains fasteners. Do not point
the tool toward yourself or anyone
whether it contains fasteners or not.
j. WARNING – Do not re fastener on
top of another fastener. This is able
to cause the fastener to be deected
and hit someone, or cause the tool to
react and result in a risk of injury to
persons.
k. WARNING – Remove nger from
the trigger when not driving
fasteners. Never carry the tool with
nger on trigger, the tool is able to re
a fastener.
Tool use and care
a. Use clamps or another practical
way to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against
the body is unstable and can lead to
loss of control.
b. Do not force the tool. Use the
correct tool for the application. The
correct tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which the tool is
designed.
c. Do not use the tool if the trigger
does not turn the tool on or off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled
with the trigger is dangerous and
must not be used until repaired.
precautionary measures reduce the
risk of injury to persons.
e. Store the tool when it is idle out
of reach of children and other
untrained persons. A tool is
dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.

of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other condition
that affects the tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the tool serviced
before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.
There is a risk of bursting if the tool is
damaged.

work surface only. Do not attempt to
re fasteners into surfaces too hard
to penetrate. Do not drive fasteners
on top of other fasteners, or at too

cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples
of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and
cement or other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from
chemically treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures
varies, depending on how often you
do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in
a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as
those dust masks that are specially
designed to lter out microscopic
particles. (California Health & Safety
Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
