INFORMATION ON MECHANICAL IMPACT(VIBRATION)
The characteristic vibration values for the fastener driving
tool have been determined in accordance with ISO 8662-
11:1999 and EN 12096 – Measurement of vibration in
hand-held power tools – Part 11: Fastener driving tools
VHH6SHFL¿FDWLRQV
This value is a tool-related characteristic value and does

using the tool will for example depend on the gripping
force, the contact pressure force, the working direction,
the adjustment of compressed air supply, the workplace
and the work piece support.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
PNEUMATIC POWER TOOLS
Ŷ
Air under pressure can cause severe injury.
Ŷ
Always shut off air supply, drain hose of air pressure
and disconnect tool from air supply whenever not in
use, before changing accessories or where making
repairs.
Ŷ
Never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
Ŷ
Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always
check for damaged or loose hoses and fittings.
Ŷ
Cold air should be directed away from the hands.
Ŷ
Whenever universal twist couplings (claw couplings)
are used, lock pins shall be installed and whip check
safety cables shall be used to safeguard against
possible hose-to-tool and hose-to-hose connection
failure.
Ŷ
Do not exceed the maximum air pressure stated on
the tool.
Ŷ
Never carry an air tool by the hose.
Ŷ
Only fasteners listed in the specifications may be used
in the fastener driving tool. The fastener driving tool
and the fasteners specified in the specifications are to
be considered as one unit safety system.
Ŷ
Quick action couplings shall be used for connection
to the compressed air system and the non-sealable
nipple must be fitted at the tool in such a way that no
compressed air remains in the tool after disconnection.
Ŷ
Oxygen or combustible gases shall not be used as an
energy source for compressed air operated fastener
driving tools.
Ŷ
Fastener driving tools shall only be connected to an
air supply where the maximum allowable pressure of
the tool cannot be exceeded by more than 10%; in the
case of higher pressure ,a pressure reducing valve
which includes a downstream safety valve shall be
built into the compressed air supply.
Ŷ
Only the main energy and the lubricants listed in
the operating instructions may be used for the
maintenance of fastener driving tools. Only spare
parts specified by the manufacturer or his authorised
representative shall be used.
Ŷ
Repairs shall be carried out only by the manufacturer's
authorized agents or by other experts, having due
regard to the information given in the operating
instructions.
Ŷ
Stands for mounting the fastener driving tools to a
support, for example to a work table, shall be designed
and constructed by the stand manufacturer in such
a way that the fastener driving tools can be safely
fixed for the intended use, thus for example avoiding
damage, distortion and displacement.
Ŷ
Check prior to each operation that the safety and
triggering mechanism is functioning properly and that
all nuts and bolts are right.
Ŷ
Do not carry out any alterations to the fastener driving
tool.
Ŷ
Do not disassemble or make inoperative any parts of
the fastener driving tool such as the dual actuation
trigger system.
Ŷ
Do not perform any “emergency repairs” without
proper tools and equipment.
Ŷ
The fastener driving tool should be serviced properly
and at regular intervals in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Ŷ
Avoid weakening or damaging the tool, for example
by:
– punching or engraving;
– modification not authorized by the manufacturer;
– guiding against templates made of hard material
such as steel;
– dropping or pushing across the floor;
– using the tool as a hammer;
– applying excessive force of any kind.
Ŷ
Never point any fastener driving tool at yourself or at
any other person or animal.
Ŷ
Hold the fastener driving tool during the work operation
in such a way that no injuries can be caused to the
head or to the body in the event of possible recoil
consequent upon a disruption in the compressed air
supply or hard areas within the workplace.
Ŷ
Never actuate the fastener driving tool into free space.
This will avoid any hazard caused by free flying
fasteners and excessive strain of the tool.
Ŷ
The tool shall be disconnected from the compressed
air system for the purpose of transportation, especially
where ladders are used or where an unusual physical
posture is adopted whilst moving .
Ŷ
Carry the fastener driving tool at the workplace using
only the handle, and never with the trigger actuated.
Ŷ
Take conditions at the workplace into account.
Fasteners can penetrate thin work pieces or slip off
corners and edges of workplaces, and thus put people
at risk.
Ŷ
For personal safety, use protective equipment such as
hearing and eye protection.
