• Keep hands and body parts clear of
immediate work area. Hold workpiece
with clamps when necessary to keep
hands and body out of potential harm. Be
sure the workpiece is properly secured
before pressing the nailer against the
material. The contact trip may cause the
work material to shift unexpectedly.
(Fig. Q)
• Do not use tool in the presence of
flammable dust, gases or fumes. The
tool may produce a spark that could
ignite gases causing a fire. Driving a nail
into another nail may also cause a spark.
(Fig. R)
• Keep face and body parts away from
back of the tool cap when working
in restricted areas. Sudden recoil can
result in impact to the body, especially
when nailing into hard or dense material.
(Fig. S)
• Grip tool firmly to maintain control
while allowing tool to recoil away
from work surface as fastener is
driven. In "Contact Actuation Mode" if
contact trip is allowed to recontact work
surface before trigger is released an
unwanted fastener will be fired.
• Choice of triggering method is
important. Check the manual for triggering options.

• Do not drive nails blindly into walls,

driven into live electrical wires, plumbing,
or other types of obstructions can result
in injury. (Fig. U)
• Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
