Safety, performance, and dependability have been given
top priority in the design of your stapler.
INTENDED USE
The stapler is intended to drive staples in soft materials
such as wood. It can be used in the following:
Finish and trim (interior and exterior)
Door and window casing
Door jambs
Baseboard
Crown molding
Cabinetry
Cap and shoe molding
Molding
Wooden staircases
Door and window trim
Chair rail
Brick mold
Hardwood flooring
Paneling
Furniture
The stapler is not suitable for xing electric cables.
Do not use the product in any way other than those stated
for intended use.
NOTE: Some timbers (such as very dry hardwood) may
require shorter staples to fully drive in.
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure
to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
STAPLER SAFETY WARNINGS
Always assume that the tool contains fasteners.
Careless handling of the stapler can result in
unexpected firing of fasteners and personal injury.
Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone
nearby. Unexpected triggering will discharge the
fastener causing an injury.
Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed
firmly against the workpiece. If the tool is not in
contact with the workpiece, the fastener may be
deflected away from your target.
Disconnect the tool from the power source when
the fastener jams in the tool. While removing a
jammed fastener, the stapler may be accidentally
activated if it is plugged in.
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.
Do not use this stapler 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 fire hazards.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
Always be aware that misuse and improper handling
of the product can cause injury to yourself and others.
The product is designed for single-hand use. Do not
hold the product by the front of the magazine. Do not
put hands, head, or other parts of your body near the
bottom of the magazine where the fastener exits the
product, as serious personal injury could be caused.
Always ensure that the workpiece contact is fully
positioned above the workpiece. Positioning the
workpiece contact only partially above the workpiece
could cause the fastener to miss the workpiece
completely and result in serious personal injury.
Do not drive fasteners near edge of material. The
workpiece may split causing the fastener to ricochet,
injuring you or a coworker. Be aware that the fastener
may follow the grain of the wood, causing it to protrude
unexpectedly from the side of the work material or
deflect, possibly causing injury.
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
fastener against the material. The workpiece contact
may cause the work material to shift unexpectedly.
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
stapling into hard or dense material.
During normal use the product will recoil immediately
after driving a fastener. This is a normal function of
the product. Do not attempt to prevent the recoil by
holding the product against the work. Restriction to the
recoil can result in a second fastener being driven from
the product. Grip the handle firmly, let the product do
the work and do not place second hand on top of the
product or near exhaust at any time. Failure to heed this
warning can result in serious personal injury.
Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners or with
the product at an overly steep angle as this may cause
deflection of fasteners which could cause injury.
Always check the work area for hidden wiring, gas lines,
water lines, etc., before using the product on such work
area.
