5) Battery Tool Use and Care
a ) Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
b ) Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
c ) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws, or other small metal objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns
or a fire.
d ) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
6) Service
a ) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Nailer Safety Warnings
•
Always assume that the tool contains fasteners.
Careless handling of the nailer can result in unexpected
firing of fasteners and personal injury.
•
Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone
nearby. Unexpected triggering will discharge the fastener
causing an injury.
•
Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed
firmly against the workpiece. If the tool is not in
contact with the workpiece, the fastener may be deflected
away from your target.
•
Disconnect the tool from the power source when the
fastener jams in the tool. While removing a jammed
fastener, the nailer may be accidentally activated if it is
plugged in.
•
Do not use this nailer for fastening electrical cables.
It is not designed for electric cable installation and may
damage the insulation of electric cables thereby causing
electric shock or fire hazards.
Additional Nailer Safety Warnings
WARNING: When using any nailer, all safety
precautions, as outlined below, should be followed
to avoid the risk of death or serious injury. Read and
understand all instructions before operating the tool.
WARNING: IF THE TOOL HAS BEEN DROPPED OR
YOU SUSPECT TOOL IS DAMAGED, PERFORM
TOOL OPERATION CHECK AS DEFINED IN THE
MODE SELECTION SECTION OF THE MANUAL. IF
IT DOESN'T PERFORM ACCORDING TO THE MANUAL,
STOP USING THE TOOL AND HAVE IT SERVICED AT AN
AUTHORIZED BOSTITCH SERVICE CENTER.
•
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool may
contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
•
Actuating tool may result in flying debris, collation
material, or dust which could harm operator's eyes.
Operator and others in work area MUST wear safety
glasses with side shields. These safety glasses must
conform to ANSI Z87.1 requirements (approved
glasses have "Z87" printed or stamped on them. It is
the employer's responsibility to enforce the use of eye
protection equipment by the tool operator and other
people in the work area.
•
Always wear appropriate personal hearing and
other protection during use. Under some conditions
and duration of use, noise from this product may
contribute to hearing loss.
•
Disconnect battery pack from the tool when not in use.
Always remove battery pack and remove fasteners from
magazine before leaving the area or passing the tool to
another operator. Do not carry tool to another work area in
which changing location involves the use of scaffoldings,
stairs, ladders, and the like, with battery pack connected.
Do not make adjustments, perform maintenance or clear
jammed fasteners while battery is in place.
•
Do not remove, tamper with, or otherwise cause
the tool, trigger, trigger lock-off, or contact trip to
become inoperable. Do not tape or tie trigger or contact
trip in the on position. Do not remove spring from contact
trip. Make daily inspections for free movement of trigger
and contact trip. Uncontrolled discharge could result.
•
Inspect tool before use. Do not operate a tool if any
portion of the tool, trigger, trigger lock-off, or
contact trip is inoperable, disconnected, altered,
or not working properly. Damaged parts or missing
parts should be repaired or replaced before use. Refer to
Maintenance.
•
Do not alter or modify the tool in any way.
•
Always assume that the tool contains fasteners.
•
Do not point the tool at co-workers or yourself at
any time. No horseplay! Work safe! Respect the tool as a
working implement.
•
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control. When tool is not in use, it should be locked in a
safe place, out of the reach of children.
•
Do not carry the tool from place to place holding the
trigger. Accidental discharge could result.
•
Always use trigger lock-off when tool is not in immediate
use. Using the trigger lock-off will prevent accidental
discharge.
•
Do not overreach. Maintain proper footing and balance at
all times. Loss of balance may cause personal injury.
•
Use the tool only for its intended use. Do not
discharge fasteners into open air, concrete, stone,
extremely hard woods, knots or any material too
hard for the fastener to penetrate. Do not use the
