Safety Instructions; Precautions On Using The Tool - Max HN120 Manual De Operaciones

1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING:
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

PRECAUTIONS ON USING THE TOOL

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 the American National Standards Institute, ANSI
Z87.1 (Council Directive 89/686/EEC of 21 DEC. 1989) 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.
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. WHEN USING THE TOOL, BE SURE TO USE A SPECIAL AIR COMPRESSOR AND AIR HOSE
In order to improve its performance, it has set its working pressure higher than the conventional
nailers. To use the tool, you always need the special air compressor and air hose (MAX PowerLite
Compressor and MAX PowerLite Hose). Use of high-pressure gas (for example, oxygen,
acetylene, etc.) causes abnormal combustion, possibly resulting in explosion. Use only the
special air compressor and air hose.
4. OPERATE WITHIN THE PROPER AIR PRESSURE RANGE
The tool is designed to operate within an air pressure range of 210 to 320 p.s.i. (15 to 23 bar.)
The pressure should be adjusted to the type of the work being fastened. The tool shall never be
operated when the operating pressure exceeds 320 p.s.i. (23 bar.)
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. 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.
7. 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.
