WARNING: Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in serious injury, electric shock
and/or fire.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
For personal safety and proper operation and
maintenance of the tool, read this instruction manual
before using the tool.
General safety
1. Any other use except for intended use of this tool
is forbidden. Fastener driving tools with continual
contact actuation or contact actuation shall only
be used for production applications.
2. Keep fingers away from trigger when not
operating this tool and when moving from one
operating position to another.
3. Multiple hazards. Read and understand the safety
instructions before connecting, disconnecting,
loading, operating, maintaining, changing
accessories on, or working near the tool. Failure
to do so can result in serious bodily injury.
4. Keep all body parts such as hands and legs etc.
away from firing direction and ensure fastener
cannot penetrate workpiece into parts of the body.
5. When using the tool, be aware that the fastener
could deflect and cause injury.
6. Hold the tool with a firm grasp and be prepared to
manage recoil.
7. Only technically skilled operators should use the
fastener driving tool.
8. Do not modify the fastener driving tool.
Modifications may reduce the effectiveness of
safety measures and increase the risks to the
operator and/or bystander.
9. Do not discard the instruction manual.
10. Do not use a tool if the tool has been damaged.
11. Be careful when handling fasteners, especially
when loading and unloading, as the fasteners
have sharp points which could cause injury.
12. Always check the tool before use for broken,
misconnected or worn parts.
13. Do not overreach. Only use in a safe working
place. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times.
14. Keep bystanders away (when working in an area
where there is a likelihood of through traffic of
people). Clearly mark off your operating area.
15. Never point the tool at yourself or others.
16. Do not rest your finger on the trigger when picking
up the tool, moving between operating areas and
positions or walking, as resting finger on trigger
can lead to inadvertent operation. For tools with
selective actuation, always check the tool before
use to ascertain the correct mode is selected.
17. Only wear gloves that provide adequate feel and
safe control of triggers and any adjusting devices.
18. When resting the tool, lay it down on the flat
surface. If you use the hook equipped with the
tool, hook the tool securely on the stable surface.
19. Do not operate when under the influence of
ENB111-5
alcohol, drugs or the like.
Projectile hazards
1. The fastener driving tool shall be disconnected
when unloading fasteners, making adjustments,
clearing jams or changing accessories.
2. During operation be careful that fasteners
penetrate material correctly and cannot be
deflected/misfired towards operator and/or any
bystanders.
3. During operation, debris from workpiece and
fastening/collation system may be discharged.
4. Always wear protective goggles to protect your
eyes from injury when using power tools.The
goggles must comply with ANSI Z87.1 in the USA,
EN 166 in Europe, or AS/NZS 1336 in Australia/
New Zealand. In Australia/New Zealand, it is
legally required to wear a face shield to protect
your face, too. (Fig. 1)
It is an employer's responsibility to enforce the
use of appropriate safety protective equipments
by the tool operators and by other persons in the
immediate working area.
5. The risks to others shall be assessed by the
operator.
6. Be careful with tools without workpiece contact as
they can be fired unintentionally and injure
operator and/or bystander.
7. Ensure tool is always safely engaged on the
workpiece and cannot slip.
8. Wear hearing protection to protect your ears
against exhaust noise and head protection. Also
wear light but not loose clothing. Sleeves should
be buttoned or rolled up. No necktie should be
worn.
Operating hazards
1. Hold the tool correctly: be ready to counteract
normal or sudden movements such as recoil.
2. Maintain a balanced body position and secure
footing.
3. Appropriate safety glasses shall be used and
appropriate gloves and protective clothing are
recommended.
4. Appropriate hearing protection shall be worn.
5. Use the correct energy supply as directed in the
instruction manual.
6. Do not use the tool on moving platforms or back
of trucks. Sudden movement of the platform may lose
control of the tool and cause injury.
7. Always assume that the tool contains fasteners.
8. Do not rush the job or force the tool. Handle the
tool carefully.
9. Watch your footing and maintain your balance
with the tool. Make sure there is no one below when
working in high locations.
10. On rooftops and other high locations, drive
fasteners as you move forward. It is easy to lose
your footing if you drive fasteners while inching
backward. When driving fasteners against
perpendicular surface, work from the top to the
bottom. You can perform driving operations with less
fatigue by doing so.
