BEFORE USING THIS TOOL, STUDY THIS MANUAL TO ENSURE SAFETY
WARNING AND INSTRUCTIONS.
KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS WITH THE TOOL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

WARNING

1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

TO AVOID SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE

BEFORE USING THE TOOL, READ
CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND THE
FOLLOWING “SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS”.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW WARNINGS COULD
RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.

WARNING

1. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES OR GOGGLES

Danger to the eyes always exists due to the
possibility of dust being blown up by the
exhausted air or of a fastener flying up due to
the improper handling of the tool. For these
reasons, safety glasses or goggles shall
always be worn when operating the tool.
The employer and/or user must ensure that
proper eye protection is worn. Eye protection
equipment must conform to the requirements
of Council Directive 89/686/EEC of 21 DEC.
1989 (the American National Standards
Institute, ANSI Z87.1) and provide both frontal
and side protection.
The employer is responsible to enforce the
use of eye protection equipment by the tool
operator and all other personnel in the work
area.
NOTE: Non-side shielded spectacles and
face shields alone do not provide adequate
protection.

ENGLISH

PRECAUTIONS ON USING THE TOOL

ENGLISH

2. EAR PROTECTION MAY BE REQUIRED IN
SOME ENVIRONMENTS

As the working condition may include
exposure to high noise levels which can lead
to hearing damage, the employer and user
should ensure that any necessary hearing
protection is provided and used by the
operator and others in the work area.

3. DO NOT USE ANY POWER SOURCE
EXCEPT AN AIR COMPRESSOR

The tool is designed to operate on
compressed air. Do not operate the tool on
any other highpressure gas, combustible
gases (e.g., oxygen, acetylene, etc.) since
there is the danger of an explosion. For this
reason, absolutely do not use anything other
than an air compressor to operate the tool.

4. OPERATE WITHIN THE PROPER AIR
PRESSURE RANGE

The tool is designed to operate within an air
pressure range of 5 to 7 bar (70 to 100 p.s.i.).
The pressure should be adjusted to the type
of the work being fastened. The tool shall
never be operated when the operating
pressure exceeds 8 bar (120 p.s.i.).
Never connect the tool to air pressure which
potentially exceeds 14 bar (200 p.s.i.) as the
tool can burst.

5. DO NOT OPERATE THE TOOL NEAR A
FLAMMABLE SUBSTANCE

Never operate the tool near a flammable
substance (e.g., thinner, gasoline, etc.).
Volatile fumes from these substances could
be drawn into the compressor and
compressed together with the air and this
could result in an explosion.

6. NEVER USE THE TOOL IN AN EXPLOSIVE
ATMOSPHERE

Sparks from the tool may ignite atmospheric
gases, dust or other combustible materials.

7. DO NOT USE A WRONG FITTINGS

The connector on the tool must not hold
pressure when air supply is disconnected. If a
wrong fitting is used, the tool can remain
charged with air after disconnecting and thus
will be able to drive a fastener even after the
air line is disconnected, possibly causing
injury.

8. DISCONNECT THE AIR SUPPLY AND
EMPTY THE MAGAZINE WHEN THE TOOL
IS NOT IN USE

Always disconnect the air supply from the tool
and empty the magazine when operation has
been completed or suspended, when
unattended, moving to a different work area,
adjusting, disassembling, or repairing the tool,
and when clearing a jammed fastener.

12. USE SPECIFIED FASTENERS
(SEE PAGE 7)

The use of fasteners other than specified
fasteners will cause the tool malfunction. Be
sure to use only specified fasteners when
operating the tool.

13. PLACE THE DISCHARGE OUTLET ON THE
WORK SURFACE PROPERLY

Failure to place the discharge outlet of the
nose in a proper manner can result in a
fastener flying up and is extremely
dangerous.

14. KEEP HANDS AND BODY AWAY FROM
THE DISCHARGE OUTLET

When loading and using the tool, never place
a hand or any part of body in fastener
discharge area of the tool. It is very
dangerous to hit the hands or body by
mistake.

15. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS CLOSE TO
THE EDGE AND CORNER OF THE WORK
AND THIN MATERIAL

The workpiece is likely to split and the
fastener could fly free and hit someone.

9. INSPECT SCREW TIGHTNESS

Loose or improperly installed screws or bolts
cause accidents and tool damage when the
tool is put into operation. Inspect to confirm
that all screws and bolts are tight and
properly installed prior to operating the tool.

10. DO NOT TOUCH THE TRIGGER UNLESS
YOU INTEND TO DRIVE A FASTENER

Whenever the air supply is connected to the
tool, never touch the trigger unless you intend
to drive a fastener into the work. It is
dangerous to walk around carrying the tool
with the trigger pulled, and this and similar
actions should be avoided.

11. NEVER POINT THE DISCHARGE OUTLET
TOWARD YOURSELF AND OTHER
PERSONNEL

If the discharge outlet is pointed toward
people, serious accidents may be caused
when misfiring. Be sure the discharge outlet
is not pointed toward people when connecting
and disconnecting the hose, loading and
unloading the fasteners or similar operations.

ENGLISH

20. NEVER USE THE TOOL IF ANY PORTION
OF THE TOOL CONTROLS (e.g., TRIGGER,
CONTACT ARM) IS INOPERABLE,
DISCONNECTED, ALTERED OR NOT
WOKING PROPERLY

21. NEVER ACTUATE THE TOOL INTO FREE
SPACE

This will avoid any hazard caused by free
flying fasteners and excessive strain of the
tool.

22. ALWAYS ASSUME THAT THE TOOL
CONTAINS FASTENERS

23. RESPECT THE TOOL AS A WORKING
IMPLEMENT

24. NO HORSEPLAY

25. NEVER LOAD THE TOOL WITH
FASTENERS WHEN ANY ONE OF THE
OPERATING CONTROLS (e.g., TRIGGER,
CONTACT ARM) IS ACTIVATED

26. WEAR THE GLOVES DEPENDING ON THE
WORKING CONDITION

27. WHEN DISPOSING THE MACHINE OR ITS
PARTS, FOLLOW THE RELEVANT
NATIONAL RULES

OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING GENERAL
CAUTION IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER
WARNINGS CONTAINED IN THIS
MANUAL

• Do not use the tool as a hammer.

• Always carry the tool by the grip, never

carry the tool by the air hose.

• The tool must be used only for the purpose

it was designed.

• Never remove, tamper with the operating

controls (e.g., TRIGGER, CONTACT ARM)

• Keep the tool in a dry place out of reach of

children when not in use.

• Do not use the tool without Safety Warning

label.

• Do not modify the tool from original design

or function without approval by MAX CO.,
LTD.

16. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS ON TOP OF
OTHER FASTENERS

Driving fasteners on the top of other fasteners
may cause deflection fasteners which could
cause injury.

17. REMOVING THE FASTENERS AFTER
COMPLETING OPERATION

If fasteners are left in the magazine after the
completion of operation, there is the danger
of a serious accident occurring prior to the
resumption of operation, should the tool be
handled carelessly, or when connecting the
air fitting. For this reason, always remove all
fasteners remaining in the magazine after
completion of the operation.

18. CHECK OPERATION OF THE CONTACT
TRIP MECHANISM FREQUENTLY IN CASE
OF USING A CONTACT TRIP TYPE TOOL

Do not use the tool if the trip is not working
correctly as accidental driving of a fastener
may result. Do not interfere with the proper
operation of the contact trip mechanism.

19. WHEN USING THE TOOL OUTSIDE OR
ELEVATED PLACE

When fastening roofs or similar slanted
surface, start fastening at the lower part and
gradually work your way up. Fastening
backward is dangerous as you may lose your
foot place.
Secure the hose at a point close to the area
you are going to drive fasteners. Accidents
may be caused due to the hose being pulled
inadvertently or getting caught.
