• Refer to the Maintenance and Repairs sections for detailed information on the proper maintenance of thetool.

• Always operate the tool in a clean, lighted area. Be sure the work surface is clear of any debris and be careful not to lose footing when working in elevated environments such asrooftops.

• Do not drive fastener near edge of material. The workpiece may split causing the nail to ricochet, injuring you or a co‑worker. Be aware that the fastener may follow the grain of the wood (shiner), causing it to protrude unexpectedly from the side of the work material. Drive the chisel point of the fastener perpendicular to the grain to reduce risk ofinjury.

• Do not drive nails onto the heads of other fasteners or with the tool at too steep an angle. Personal injury from strong recoil jammed nails, or ricocheted nails mayresult.

• Keep hands and body parts clear of immediate work area. Hold workpiece with clamps when necessary to keep hands and body out of potential harm. Be sure the workpiece is properly secured before pressing the nailer against the material. The contact trip may cause the work material to shiftunexpectedly.

• Do not use tool in the presence of flammable dust, gases or fumes. The tool may produce a spark that could ignite gases causing a fire. Driving a nail into another nail may also cause aspark.

• 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 densematerial.

• Grip tool firmly to maintain control while allowing tool to recoil away from work surface as fastener isdriven.

• Choice of triggering method is important. Check the manual for triggeringoptions.

• Always select an actuation system that is appropriate to the fastener application and the training of theoperator.

WARNING: Never modify the power tool or any part of

it. Damage or personal injury couldresult.

WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday

eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETYEQUIPMENT:

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding,

sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicalsare:

• lead from lead‑based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically‑treatedlumber. Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopicparticles.

• Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmfulchemicals. Direct particles away from face andbody.

• Use the appropriate dust extractor vacuum to remove the vast majority of static and airborne dust. Failure to remove static and airborne dust could contaminate the working environment or pose an increased health risk to the operator and those in closeproximity.

• Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss ofcontrol andinjury.

• Depth adjustment: To reduce risk of serious injury from accidental actuation when attempting to adjust depth, ALWAYS; - Remove batterypack. - Engage trigger lock‑off. - Avoid contact with trigger during adjustments
