Keep fingers away from trigger 

when not driving fasteners to avoid 

accidental firing.

3. 

Choice of triggering method is 

important.  Check manual for 

triggering options.

4.  Always assume the tool contains 

fasteners.

5.  Do not point the tool toward yourself or 

anyone whether it contains fasteners or 

not.

placed firmly against the workpiece.

7.  Respect the tool as a working implement.

can be deadly if misused.

any one of the operating controls, such 

as the Trigger or Safety Nosepiece, is 

activated.

10.  Do not remove, tamper with, or otherwise 

cause the tool operating controls to 

become inoperable.

11.  Do not operate the tool if any portion of
