Electrical Safety; Specific Safety Instructions - tacwise Ranger EL-PRO Manual De Instrucciones

• Do not over reach or use on unstable surfaces. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
• Use safety equipment. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
Wear CE approved safety goggles at all times. Normal spectacles
only have impact resistant lenses; they are NOT safety glasses.

Electrical Safety

• Disconnect power to the tool. When not in use, before servicing
or when changing accessories such as staples/nails etc.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Do not use any
adaptor plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
• Protect yourself from electric shock. When working with power
tools, avoid contact with any earthed or grounded surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, hobs and refrigerators.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never carry the charger by the power cable
or pull it with force from the socket. Keep the power cable away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords may create a fire or increase the risk of electric shock.
Power Tool Use and Care
• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it was designed.
• Disconnect the tool from the power source before making any
adjustments, changing accessories or storing the power tool.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
• Do not alter or misuse the power tool. Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
• DO NOT fire if the nails are jammed. This will cause damage to
the driver blade and could invite accidents.
• Keep fingers off the trigger until ready to drive staple/nail.
• DO NOT use on hard surfaces such as rock, concrete, masonry,
bricks or steel. Personal injury or damage to the power tool
could result.
• Secure work. Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and
support the work piece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to
loss of control.
• Stored power tools. When not in use, all power tools should be
stored in a dry, locked cupboard and out of the reach of children
and other untrained persons.
• Check for damaged parts. Check for misalignment or bending
of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, immediately
discontinue use and ensure the power tool is repaired before use.
Poorly maintained power tools can result in accidents.
• Maintain power tools with care. Keep power tools clean for
the best and safest performance. All cables must be checked at
regular intervals and replaced if damaged.
• Recommended accessories. Use only accessories that are
recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories
that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury when
used on another tool.
FASTENING TOOLS FOR THE PROFESSIONAL
• Keep the power tool and its handle dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never
use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any
strong solvents to clean your power tool. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of loss of control and deterioration of the power
tool housing.
• Beware of hidden danger. Always make sure there is no danger
of hitting any hidden power cables, water or gas pipes.
Battery Tool Use and Care
• Only use the battery charger specified by the manufacturer.
Use of the wrong battery pack with the charger may create the
risk of a fire.
• Use battery packs specified for the correct tool only. Use of
the wrong battery pack with the tool may create the risk of injury
or fire.
• Keep away from other metal objects such as keys, coins,
nails, screws, paper clips etc., when battery pack is not in
use. Small metal objects like those listed above could make a
connection across the terminals, shorting the battery terminals
together and may cause a fire.
• Liquid may leak from the battery under abusive conditions.
Avoid contact. If skin should accidentally come into contact with
liquid, flush with water. If liquid should come into contact with
eyes seek additional medical help. Liquid ejected from damaged
battery may cause irritation or burns.

Specific Safety Instructions

• Always assume that the tool is loaded with fasteners.
Handling the tool without care could result in an unexpected firing
of fasteners and lead to personal injury.
• Use only the staples/nails specified in the manual. Use of
accessories that are not designed for this tool could result in
personal injury and/or damage to the power tool.
• Do not touch any parts of the power tool magazine or nose
during operation. Hold only by the handle or housing of the tool.
• Do not activate the power tool unless it is in contact with the
work piece. Serious injury can result if you depress the
safety lock pin on nose/contact trip with your fingers, or by
improper operation.
• Fastening thin items. Special caution must be taken for possible
penetration through thin items, as this could cause possible harm
to anyone or anything behind the work piece or immediate area.
• Never use the tool as a hammer. The sudden impact could
shift inner components of the power tool, resulting in a fastener
discharge and injury.
• When fastening has been completed always disconnect from
the power source (battery) prior to unloading the magazine.
• Do not disassemble or lock any of the fastener driving parts.
• Prior to each operation. Check that the safety and triggering
mechanism is functioning properly and that all nuts and bolts
are tight.
• Never point any power tool at yourself or at any other person.
While working, hold the tool in such a way that no injuries can be
caused to the head or to the body in the event of possible recoil.
• Never actuate the power tool into free space or the air.
• Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners.
• Disconnect the tool from the battery if a fastener jams in the
tool. While removing a jammed fastener, the tool may be activated
by accident if battery is connected.
• Take care while removing a jammed fastener. The mechanism
may be under compression and a jammed fastener may be
discharged while attempting to free it.
