General Safety
Information (Continued)
Danger indicates
an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
WILL result in death or serious injury.
Read and understand
tool labels and manual.
Failure to follow warnings, dangers, and cautions could result in
DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY.
Do not use any type
of reactive gases,
including, but not limited to, oxygen and
combustible gases, as
a power source. Use
filtered, lubricated, regulated compressed air only. Use of a reactive
gas instead of compressed air may
cause the tool to explode which will
cause death or serious personal
injury.
Use only a pressure-
regulated compressed
air source to limit the
air pressure supplied
to the tool. The regulated pressure must
not exceed 100 psi. If the regulator
fails, the pressure delivered to the
tool must not exceed 200 psi. The
tool could explode which will cause
death or serious personal injury.
Never use gasoline
or other flammable
liquids to clean the
tool. Never use the
tool in the presence
of flammable liquids or gases.
!
Vapors could ignite by a spark and

Contact Element (WCE) is engaged.
The tool could eject a fastener causing death or serious personal injury.
Always fit tool
with a fitting or
hose coupling
on or near the
tool in such a
manner that all
compressed air in the tool is discharged at the time the fitting or
hose coupling is disconnected. Do
not use a check valve or any other fitting which allows air to remain in the
tool. Death or serious personal injury
could occur.
Never place hands or
any other body parts in
the fastener discharge
area of the tool. The
tool might eject a fastener and could result
in death or serious personal injury.
Never carry the

General Safety
Information (Continued)
Always assume the tool contains
fasteners. Respect the tool as a
working implement; no horseplay.
Always keep others at a safe distance from the work area in case of
accidental discharge of fasteners.
Do not point the tool toward yourself or anyone whether it contains
fasteners or not. Accidental triggering of the tool could result in death
or serious personal injury.
Do not drive a fas-
tener on top of
other fasteners.
The fastener could
glance and cause
death or a serious
puncture wound.
Do not operate
or allow anyone
else to operate
the tool if any
warnings or
warning labels
are not legible.
Warnings or warning labels are located on the tool magazine and body.
Do not drop or throw the tool.
Dropping or throwing the tool can
result in damage that will make the
tool unusable or unsafe. If the tool
has been dropped or thrown, examine the tool closely for bent, cracked
or broken parts and air leaks. STOP
and repair before using or serious
injury could occur.
Caution indicates
a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
MAY result in minor or moderate
injury.
Operating The
Stapler
RECOMMENDED HOOKUP
The illustration below shows the
recommended hookup for the tool.
1. The air compressor must be
able to maintain a minimum of 60 psi
when the tool is being used. An
inadequate air supply can cause a
loss of power and inconsistent
driving.
2. Always use air supply hoses with a
minimum working pressure rating
equal to or greater than the pressure from the power source if a regulator fails, or 150 psi, whichever is
greater. Use 3/8” air hose for runs
up to 50’. Use 1/2” air hoses for 50’
run or longer. For better performance, install a 3/8” quick plug (1/4”
NPT threads) with an inside diameter of .315” (8mm) on the tool and a
3/8” quick coupler on the air hose.
3. Use a pressure regulator on the
compressor, with an operating pressure of 0 - 125 psi. A pressure regulator is required to control the operating pressure of the tool between
60 and 100 psi.
Do not make any modifications to the
tool without first obtaining written
approval from Campbell Hausfeld. Do
not use the tool if any shields or
guards are removed or altered. Do
not use the tool as a hammer.
Personal injury or tool
damage may occur.
Avoid long extended periods of
work with the tool. Stop using the
tool if you feel pain in hands or
arms.
Always check that the Work Contact
Element (WCE) is operating properly. A fastener could accidentally be
driven if the WCE is not working
properly. Personal injury may occur
(See "Checking the Work Contact
Element" Section).
Disconnect air supply and release
tension from the pusher before
attempting to clear jams because
fasteners can be ejected from the
front of the tool. Personal injury
may occur.
Notice indicates
important infor-
mation, that if not followed, MAY
cause damage to equipment.
Avoid using the tool when the mag-
azine is empty. Accelerated wear on
the tool may occur.
Clean and check all air supply hoses
and fittings before connecting the
tool to an air supply. Replace any
damaged or worn hoses or fittings.
Tool performance or durability may
be reduced.
