Tool Operation - DeWalt DWEHF1838K Manual De Instrucciones

TOOL OPERATION

EYE PROTECTION which conforms to ANSI specifications and provides protection against
flying particles both from the FRONT and SIDE should ALWAYS be worn by the operator
and others in the work area when connecting to air supply, loading, operating or servicing
this tool. Eye protection is required to guard against flying fasteners and debris, which
could cause severe eye injury.
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 and provide both frontal and side protection. NOTE: Non-side shielded
spectacles and face shields alone do not provide adequate protection.
BEFORE HANDLING OR OPERATING THIS TOOL:
I. READ AND UNDERSTAND THE WARNINGS CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL.
II. REFER TO "TOOL SPECIFICATIONS" IN THIS MANUAL TO IDENTIFY THE OPERATING SYSTEM
ON YOUR TOOL.
OPERATION
The operator must not hold the trigger pulled on contact trip tools except during fastening
operation, as serious injury could result if the trip accidentally contacted someone or
something, causing the tool to cycle.
Keep hands and body away from the discharge area of the tool. A contact trip tool may
bounce from the recoil of driving a fastener and an unwanted second fastener may be
driven, possibly causing injury.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP OPERATION:
In SEQUENTIAL TRIP MODE the contact trip operates in conjunction with the trigger to drive a fastener.
To operate a sequential trip tool, first position the contact trip on the work surface WITHOUT PULLING
THE TRIGGER. Depress the contact trip and then pull the trigger to drive a fastener. As long as the contact
trip is contacting the work and is held depressed, the tool will drive a fastener each time the trigger is
depressed. If the contact trip is allowed to leave the work surface, the sequence described above must be
repeated to drive another fastener.
If the tool has been dropped or you suspect tool damage perform tool operation check as
defined in the tool operation check section.
