Always assume
the tool contains
fasteners. Respect the tool as a working
implement; no horseplay. Always keep
others at a safe distance from the work
area in case of accidental discharge of
fasteners. Do not point the tool toward
yourself or anyone whether it contains
fasteners or not. Accidental triggering
of the tool could result in death or
serious personal injury.
Do not
drive a
fastener on top of other
fasteners. The fastener
could glance and cause
death or a serious puncture
wound.
Do not operate or allow
anyone else to operate
the tool if any warnings
or warning labels are not legible.
Warnings or warning labels are located
on the tool magazine and body.
Do not drop or
throw the tool.
Dropping or throwing the tool can
result in damage that will make the tool
unusable or unsafe. If the tool has been
dropped or thrown, examine the tool
closely for bent, cracked or broken parts
and air leaks. STOP and repair before
using or serious injury could occur.
Avoid using the
tool when the
magazine is empty. Accelerated wear on
the tool may occur.
Clean and check all
air supply hoses
and fittings before connecting the
tool to an air supply. Replace any
damaged or worn hoses or fittings.
Tool performance or durability may be
reduced.
SERvICE
a. Tool service must be performed only
by qualified repair personnel.
b. When servicing a tool, use only
identical replacement parts. Use
only authorized parts.
c. Use only the lubricants supplied
with the tool or specified by the
manufacturer.
Do not make any
modifications to
the tool without first obtaining written
approval from Campbell Hausfeld. Do
not use the tool if any shields or guards
are removed or altered. Do not use the
tool as a hammer. Personal injury or
tool damage may occur.
Disconnect air
supply and release
tension from the pusher before
attempting to clear jams because
fasteners can be ejected from the front
of the tool. Personal injury may occur.
TOOL USE AND CARE
a. Use clamps or another practical way
to secure and support the workpiece
to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against the body is
unstable and is able to lead to loss
of control.
b. Do not force the tool. Use the
correct tool for the application. The
correct tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which the
tool is designed.
c. Do not use the tool if the switch
does not turn the tool on or off. Any
tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
d.
Disconnect the
tool from the air
source before making adjustments,
doing tool maintenance, clearing
jams, leaving work area,loading,
or unloading the tool.
Such
precautionary measures reduce the
risk of injury to persons.
e. Store the tool when it is idle out
of reach of children and other
untrained persons. A tool is
dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
f. Maintain the tool with care. Keep
a cutting tool sharp and clean. A
properly maintained tool, with sharp
cutting edges reduces the risk of
binding and is easier to control.
g. Check for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts,
and any other condition that affects
the tool’s operation. If damaged,
have the tool serviced before using.
Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools. There is a risk of
bursting if the tool is damaged.
h. Use only those fasteners listed
in the Accessories section of this
manual. Fasteners not identified
for use with this tool by the tool
manufacturer are able to result in
a risk of injury to persons or tool
damage when used in this tool.
i. Selecting an appropriate tool
actuation system, taking into
consideration the work application
for which the tool is used.
Never use
gasoline
or other flammable liquids
to clean the tool. Never use
the tool in the presence of
flammable liquids or gases. Vapors
could ignite by a spark and cause an
explosion which will result in death or
serious personal injury.
Do not
remove,
tamper with, or otherwise
cause the trigger lock
or trigger to become
inoperable. Do not operate
any tool which has been modified in a
like fashion. Death or serious personal
injury could result.
Do
not
touch the trigger unless
driving fasteners. Never
attach air line to tool or
carry tool while touching the trigger.
The tool could eject a fastener which
will result in death or serious personal
injury. Also actuate the trigger lock to
the safe position when not in use.
Always disconnect the
tool from the power
source when unattended,
performing any maintenance or repair,
clearing a jam, or moving the tool to a
new location. Do not load the tool with
fasteners when the trigger is depressed.
The tool could eject a fastener causing
death or serious personal injury.
Always
fit tool
with a fitting or hose
coupling on or near the tool
in such a manner that all
compressed air in the tool
is discharged at the time the fitting or
hose coupling is disconnected. Do not
use a check valve or any other fitting
which allows air to remain in the tool.
Death or serious personal injury could
occur.
Never place hands or any
other body parts in the
fastener discharge area of
the tool. The tool might eject a fastener
and could result in death or serious
personal injury.
Never
carry the
tool by the air hose or pull
the hose to move the tool
or a compressor. Keep hoses
away from heat, oil and
sharp edges. Replace any
hose that is damaged, weak
or worn. Personal injury or tool damage
could occur.
