GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY

WARNINGS WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains- operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of fl ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodifi ed plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the infl uence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before connecting to (Original instructions) 00BookNR1890DBCL.indb900BookNR1890DBCL.indb9 2020/08/0711:38:472020/08/0711:38:4710 English c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fi re. d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, fl ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained. PRECAUTION Keep children and infi rm persons away. When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach of children and infi rm persons.

1. Always assume that the tool contains fasteners.

Careless handling of the nailer can result in unexpected fi ring of fasteners and personal injury.

2. Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone

nearby. Unexpected triggering will discharge the fastener causing an injury.

3. Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed

fi rmly against the workpiece. If the tool is not contact with the workpiece, the fastener may be defl ected away from your target.

4. Disconnect the tool from the power source when

the fastener jams in the tool. While removing a jammed fastener, the nailer may be accidentally activated if it is plugged in.

5. Use caution while removing a jammed fastener.

The mechanism may be under compression and the fastener may be forcefully discharged while attempting to free a jammed condition.

6. Do not use this nailer for fastening electrical cables.

It is not designed for electric cable installation and may damage the insulation of electric cables thereby causing electric shock or fi re hazards.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS

1. Safe operation through correct usage.

This tool was designed for driving nails into wood and similar materials. Use it for its intended purpose only.

2. Be careful of ignition and explosions.

Since sparks may fl y during nailing, it is dangerous to use this tool near lacquer, paint, benzine, thinner, gasoline, gas, adhesives and similar infl ammable substances as they may ignite or explode. Under no circumstances should this tool therefore be used in the vicinity of such infl ammable material.

3. Always wear eye protection (protective goggles).

When operating the power tool, always wear eye protection, and ensure that surrounding people wear eye protection too. The possibility of fragments of the nails that were not properly hit entering the eye is a threat to sight. Eye protection can be bought at any hardware store. Always wear eye protection while operating this tool. Use either eye protection or a wide vision mask over prescription glasses. Employers should always enforce the use of eye protection equipment.

4. Protect your ears and head.

When engaged in nailing work please wear ear muffl ers and head protection. Also, depending on condition, ensure that surrounding people also wear ear muffl ers and head protection.

5. Pay attention to those working close to you.

It would be very dangerous if nails that were not properly driven in should hit other people. Therefore, always pay attention to the safety of the people around you when using this tool. Always make sure that nobody’s body, hands or feet are close to the nail outlet.

6. Never point the nail outlet towards people.

Always assume the tool contains fasteners. If the nail outlet is pointed towards people, serious accidents may be caused if you mistakenly discharge the tool. When connecting and disconnecting the battery, during nail loading or similar operations, be sure the nail outlet is not pointed towards anyone (including yourself). Even when no nails are loaded at all, it is dangerous to discharge the tool while pointing it at someone, so never attempt to do so. No horseplay. Respect the tool as a working implement.

7. Check push lever before use.

Make sure the push lever operates properly. (The push lever may be called “Safety”.) Never use the Nailer unless the push lever is operating properly, otherwise the Nailer could drive a fastener unexpectedly. Do not tamper with or remove the push lever, otherwise the push lever becomes inoperable.

8. Choice of triggering method is important.

Read and understand section titled “HOW TO USE THE NAILER” on page 18.

9. Prior to using this product, make sure that it is

operating properly in accordance with the content of “Testing the nailer” on page 17.

10. Use specifi ed nails only.

Never use nails other than those specifi ed and described in these instructions.

11. Be careful when connecting the battery.

When connecting the battery and loading nails in order not to fi re the tool by mistake, make sure of the followings. ○ Do not touch the trigger. ○ Do not allow the fi ring head to contact with any surface. ○ Keep the fi ring head down. Strictly observe the above instructions, and always make sure that no part of the body, hands or legs is ever in front of the nail outlet.

12. Do not carelessly place your fi nger on the trigger.

Do not place your fi nger on the trigger except when actually nailing. If you carry this tool or hand it to someone while having your fi nger on the trigger, you may inadvertently discharge a nail and thus cause an accident.

13. Press the nail outlet fi rmly against the material to

be nailed. When driving in nails, press the nail outlet fi rmly against the material to be nailed. If the outlet is not applied properly, the nails may rebound.

14. Keep hands and feet away from the fi ring head

when using. It is very dangerous for a nail to hit the hands or feet by mistake. 00BookNR1890DBCL.indb1000BookNR1890DBCL.indb10 2020/08/0711:38:472020/08/0711:38:4711 English

15. Beware of the tool’s kickback.

Do not approach the top of the tool with your head etc. during operation. This is dangerous because the tool may recoil violently if the nail currently being driven in comes into contact with a previous nail or a knot in the wood.

16. Be careful of double fi re due to recoil.

If the push lever is unintentionally allowed to re-contact the workpiece following recoil, an unwanted fastener will be driven. In order to avoid this undesirable double fi re, ○ Intermittent operation (Trigger fi ring)

1) Set the switching device to FULL SEQUENTIAL

ACTUATION MECHANISM.

2) Pull the trigger rapidly and fi rmly.

○ Continuous operation (Push lever fi ring) (NR1890DBCL(S) excluded)

1) Do not press the nailer against the wood with

2) Separate the nailer from the wood as it recoils after

17. Take care when nailing thin boards or the corners

of wood. When nailing thin boards, the nails may pass right through, as may also be the case when nailing the corners of wood due to deviation of the nails. In such cases, always make sure that there is no one (and nobody’s hands or feet; etc.) behind the thin board or next to the wood you are going to nail.

18. Simultaneous nailing on both sides of the same

wall is dangerous. Under no circumstances should nailing be performed on both sides of a wall at the same time. This would be very dangerous since the nails might pass through the wall and thus cause injuries.

19. Do not use the power tool on scaff oldings, ladders.

The power tool shall not be used for specifi c application for example: – when changing one driving location to another involves the use of scaff oldings, stairs, ladders or ladder alike constructions, e.g. roof laths, – closing boxes or crates, – fi tting transportation safety systems e.g. on vehicles and wagons

Position the nail outlet on the workpiece with fi nger off the trigger. Depress the push lever fi rmly until it is completely depressed. Pull the trigger to drive a nail. Remove fi nger from the trigger and lift the tool off the wood surface completely. To continue nailing in a separate location, move the nailer along the wood, repeating steps - as required. NOTE Operations and should be done within 2 seconds of each other. If more than 2 seconds pass after , the Nailer will not work properly. If this happens, retry from

(2) Continuous operation (Push lever fi re) Using CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM (See Fig. 14) WARNING To avoid double fi ring or accidental fi ring due to recoil.

1) Do not press the nailer against the wood with

2) Separate the nailer from the wood as it recoils after

nailing. Set the nailing operation switch to CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM (Nailing operation indicator is blink in blue.) (to set to CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM). (Set the switching device to the nailing operation indicator blink in blue completely as shown in the Fig. 14. Otherwise, it will not operate properly.) Pull the trigger with the Nailer off the workpiece. Depress the push lever against the workpiece to drive a nail. Move the Nailer along the workpiece with a bouncing motion. Each depression of the push lever will drive a nail. As soon as the desired number of nails have been driven, remove fi nger from the trigger. NOTE Operations and should be done within 2 seconds of each other. If more than 2 seconds pass after , the Nailer will not work properly. If this happens, retry from

WARNING ○ Keep your fi nger off the trigger except during nailing operation, because serious injury could result if the push lever accidentally contacts you or others in work area. ○ Keep hands and body away from the discharge area. This HiKOKI nailer may bounce from the recoil of driving a nail and unwanted subsequent nail may be driven, possibly causing injury. NOTE ○ If all warnings and instructions are followed, safe operation is possible with all two systems: FULL

SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM, CONTACT

ACTUATION MECHANISM. ○ Always handle nails and package carefully. If nails are dropped, collating bond may be broken, which will cause mis-feeding and jamming. ○ After nailing:

1) remove battery from the Nailer;

2) remove all nails from the Nailer;

2. Adjusting the nailing depth

To assure that each nail penetrates to the same depth, be sure that the Nailer is always held fi rmly against the workpiece. If nails are driven too deep or shallow into the workpiece, adjust the nailing in the following order. Remove the battery from the Nailer. (See Fig. 15) If nails are driven too deep, turn the adjuster to the shallow side. (See Fig. 16) Adjustments are in half-turn increments. If nails are driven too shallow, turn the adjuster to the deep side. (See Fig. 17) Stop turning the adjuster when a suitable position is reached for a nailing test. Connect the battery to the Nailer. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES. Perform a nailing test. Remove the battery from the Nailer.

Even if the battery is removed from the nailer, there is still energy of compressed air remaining inside. Attach the magazine to the injector and tighten with the M5 bolt. NOTE In case of frequent jam, contact a HiKOKI authorized service center.

5. Using the nose cap (See Fig. 23)

WARNING When attaching or detaching the nose cap, be sure to remove your fi nger from the trigger and remove all remaining fasteners and the battery from the nailer. If you like to protect the surface of workpiece against scratches or markings made by the push lever, attach the accessory nose cap to the push lever. Remove all remaining fasteners and battery from nailer. Put the nose cap to the toe of the push lever. The nose cap is marked to indicate the exit point of the nail, making alignment easier. NOTE The nose cap may reduce nailing depth due to its thickness. Re-adjustment of nailing depth is required.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

CAUTION Be sure to remove all remaining fasteners and battery from the nailer before maintenance and inspection.

1. Inspecting the magazine

Remove battery from the Nailer. Clean the magazine. Remove dust and wooden chips which may have accumulated in the magazine. CAUTION Check that the nail feeder slides smoothly by pulling it with fi nger. If not smooth, nails can be driven at an irregular angle and hurt someone.

2. Inspecting the mounting screws

Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so could result in serious hazard.

3. Maintenance of the motor

The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the power tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.

4. Cleaning on the outside

When the power tool is stained, wipe with a soft dry cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy water. Do not use chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner, for they melt plastics.

Store the power tool in a place in which the temperature is less than 40°C and out of reach of children. NOTE Storing lithium-ion batteries. Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully charged before storing them. Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with a low charge may result in performance deterioration, signifi cantly reducing battery usage time or rendering the batteries incapable of holding a charge. However, signifi cantly reduced battery usage time may be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the batteries two to fi ve times. If the battery usage time is extremely short despite repeated charging and use, consider the batteries dead and purchase new batteries. CAUTION In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the safety regulations and standards prescribed in each country must be observed. Important notice on the batteries for the HiKOKI cordless power tools Please always use one of our designated genuine batteries. We cannot guarantee the safety and performance of our cordless power tool when used with batteries other than these designated by us, or when the battery is disassembled and modifi ed (such as disassembly and replacement of cells or other internal parts).

In case of complaint, please send the Power Tool, undismantled, with the GUARANTEE CERTIFICATE found at the end of this Handling instruction, to a HiKOKI Authorized Service Center. 00BookNR1890DBCL.indb2000BookNR1890DBCL.indb20 2020/08/0711:38:502020/08/0711:38:5021 English Noise Information Noise characteristic values in accordance with EN 60745: The typical A-weighted single-event sound power level

WA,1s,d = 101 dB The typical A-weighted single-event emission sound pressure level at work station L pA,1s,d = 90 dB Uncertainty KpA: 3 dB These values are tool-related characteristic values and do not represent the noise development at the point of use. Noise development at the point of use will for example depend on the working environment, the workpiece, the workpiece support and the number of driving operations, etc. Depending on the conditions at the workplace and the form of the workpiece, individual noise attenuation measures may need to be carried out, such as placing workpieces on sound-damping supports, preventing workpiece vibration by means of clamping or covering, etc. In special cases it is necessary to wear hearing protection equipment. Vibration Information The typical vibration characteristic value in accordance with EN 60745: 4.6 m/s

This values is a tool-related characteristic value and does not represent the infl uence to the hand-arm-system when using the tool. An infl uence to the hand-arm-system when using the tool will for example depend on the gripping force, the contact pressure force, the working direction, the adjustment of energy supply, the workpiece, the wrokpiece support. The declared vibration total value has been measured in accordance with a standard test method and may be used for comparing one tool with another. It may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure. WARNING ○ The vibration emission during actual use of the power tool can diff er from the declared total value depending in the ways in which the tool is used. ○ Identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time). NOTE Due to HiKOKI’s continuing program of research and development, the specifi cations herein are subject to change without prior notice. 00BookNR1890DBCL.indb2100BookNR1890DBCL.indb21 2020/08/0711:38:512020/08/0711:38:5122 English Maintenance chart
