Loads and Load Selection Safety
1. Always make a test fastening after
being sure that the base material
is suitable for powder actuated
fastening.
Failure to determine the
correct power level to be used may
result in the use of excessive power,
allowing the fastener to pass completely
through the work material, causing
serious or fatal injuries to others who
may be in the path of the fastener.
2. Color-blind operators must always
select loads by load number to prevent
use of an incorrect load for the same
reasons as in #1 above.
workplace Safety
1. Operators and bystanders must
always wear approved eye protection
and approved hearing protection.
Failure to do so may result in blindness
or serious eye injury from flying debris
and loss of hearing from constant or
repeated unprotected exposure to
fastening noise.
2. Always keep the work area clear of
bystanders and unnecessary materials
that could interfere with safe tool
operation.
Operating the tool in a
congested or cluttered area may affect
your ability to operate the tool safely.
3. Never operate tool if flammable
or explosive materials are nearby.
Powder loads burn and create sparks
when fired and could ignite these
materials or fumes.
4. Always post warning signs within
50 ft. of the area where fastening
is to be done. Sign must state:
“wARNINg – Powder Actuated Tool
In Use”.
Failure to warn others
may result in serious injury to them.
Contact ITW Brands at 1-877-489-2726
to obtain this sign.
