could ignite gases causing a fire. Driving a nail into
another nail may also cause a spark. (Fig. R)
• Keep face and body parts away from back of the tool
cap when working in restricted areas. Sudden recoil
can result in impact to the body, especially when
nailing into hard or dense material. (Fig. S)
• Grip tool firmly to maintain control while allowing
tool to recoil away from work surface as fastener is
driven. In bump action mode (contact actuation mode)
If contact trip is allowed to recontact work surface
before trigger is released an unwanted fastener will
be driven.
• Choice of triggering method is important. Check the
manual for triggering options.
BUMp OR COnTACT ACTUATIOn TRIGGeR
• When using the bump action trigger, be careful of
unin tentional double fires resulting from tool recoil.
Unwanted fasteners may be driven if the contact
trip is allowed to accidentally re-contact the work
surface. (Fig. T)
TO AvOID DOUBle FIReS:
• Do not engage the tool against the work surface
with a strong force.
• Allow the tool to recoil fully after each actuation.
• Use sequential action trigger.
• When bump actuating the nailer, always keep tool in
control. Inaccurate placement of tool can result in
misdirected discharge of a fastener.
SeqUenTIAl ACTIOn TRIGGeR
• When using the sequential action trigger, do not
actuate the tool unless the tool is placed firmly
against the workpiece.
• DepTH ADJUSTMenT: To reduce risk of serious injury
from accidental actuation when attempting to adjust
depth, AlWAyS:
• Disconnect air supply.
• Engage trigger lock
• Avoid contact with trigger during adjustments.
• Do not drive nails blindly into walls, floors or other
work areas. Fasteners driven into live electrical wires,
plumbing, or other types of obstructions can result in
injury. (Fig. U)
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool
while tired or under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
