21. Remove finger from trigger 

when not

driving fasteners. Never carry tool with finger
on trigger. In “Contact Actuation Mode” tool
will fire a fastener if safety is bumped while
trigger is depressed. Fig. 14.

22. Do not overreach.

Keep proper footing

and balance at all times when using or
handling the tool. 

23. Fire fasteners into work surface only:

never into materials too hard to penetrate.
Fig. 15.

24. Grip tool firmly to maintain control
while allowing tool to recoil away from
work surface as fastener is driven.

In

“Contact Actuation Mode” if safety element
is allowed to recontact work surface before
trigger is released an unwanted fastener will
be fired.

25. Do not drive fasteners on top of other
fasteners

, or with the tool at too steep an

angle: the fasteners can ricochet causing
personal injury. Fig. 15.

26. Do not drive fasteners close to the
edge of the workpiece.

The workpiece is

likely to split allowing the fastener to fly free
or ricochet causing personal injury. Fig. 16.

27. FOR TOOLS SET FOR CONTACT
ACTUATION MODE, Do not use on
scaffoldings or ladders

or for tasks in

which changing location involves the use of
scaffoldings, stairs, ladders, and the like. Do
not use for specific tasks such as closing
boxes or crates or fitting transportation
safety systems on vehicles and wagons.
