Air driven fastening tools have been designed according to the European Standard prEN 792-13 and the American ANSI SNT-101-1993. A) SAFETY RULES Before attempting to load, handle, operate, adjust or service the tool, all tool operators and their immediate foremen must carefully read and become familiar with all safety precautions, operating instructions and tool labels.

5.4) ALWAYS KEEP THE TOOL POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION away from others. Never assume the tool is empty. Always make sure that no one is in the potential path of a flying fastener, should the fastener break through the work piece and fly freely. A free flying fastener can cause serious injury or blindness to bystanders. No horseplay. Respect the tool as a working implement. 6) TOOL OPERATION / APPLICATIONS 6.1) NEVER OPERATE THE TOOL AT THE EDGE OF A WORKPIECE.

In this mode of operation, both the trigger and the safety yoke have to be actuated for each fastener to be driven, but do not have to be actuated in any specific order. When this mode of operation is being used, the trigger may be held in an actuated position while the safety yoke is placed in a series of successive fastener driving positions, using a bouncing motion that utilizes the recoil of the tool to help position the tool for each successive fastener driving operation.

After a strip of brads is inserted into the rear channel of the magazine, pull the pusher back keeping the push button down until the pusher is positioned behind the strip. Release then the pusher, which gently will position the strip into the tool nose. 3) CLEARING JAMS Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before attempting to clear a jammed fastener. Extract the jammed fastener using a pliers or screwdriver, taking care to prevent damage to tool components.
