English
(2) Never Use NON relieving coupler on Nailer. If a
non relieving coupler is used on the Nailer, the Nailer
can remain charged with air after disconnecting
and thus will be able to drive a fastener even after
disconnecting. The Nailer and air hose must have a
hose coupling such that all pressure is removed from
the Nailer when the coupling joint is disconnected.
(3) Check double trigger before use.
The Nailer will not operate unless you pull the lock
lever before you pull the trigger.
Make sure the lock lever operates properly, and is
not inoperable, disconnected, or altered. (The lock
lever may be called "Safety".) Never use the Nailer
unless the lock lever is operating properly, otherwise
the Nailer could drive a fastener unexpectedly. Do not
tamper with or remove the lock lever, or otherwise
cause the lock lever to become inoperable.
With no nails loaded in the Nailer, connect the air
hose and unlock the trigger, open the magazine, and
check the following.
○ There is no operating noise from the piston inside
the Nailer when the trigger is pulled without fi rst
pulling the lock lever.
Using the Nailer when it is not operating normally
may lead to injury. If any abnormality occurs, contact
the dealer where the Nailer was purchased or your
nearest Hitachi authorized service center and
arrange for repairs.
(4) Keep all screws and covers tightly in place. Keep
all screws and covers tightly mounted.
Check their condition periodically. Never use the
Nailer if parts are missing or damaged.
(5) Do not load fasteners with trigger or lock lever
pulled. When loading fasteners into the Nailer or
when connecting the air hose,
1) Lock the trigger;
2) do not pull the trigger;
3) do not pull the lock lever; and
4) keep the Nailer pointed downward.
(6) Keep hands and body away from fi ring head
during use. Never place your hands or feet closer
than 8 inches (200 mm) from the fi ring head. A
serious injury can result if the fasteners are defl ected
by the workpiece, or are driven away from the point of
entry.

WARNING
(7) When working close to an edge of a workpiece
or at steep angles, or driving fasteners into
thin workpiece use care to minimize chipping,
splitting or splintering, or free fl ight, ricochet or
piercing of fasteners, which may cause injury.
(8) Never drive fasteners from both sides of a wall
at the same time. The fasteners can be driven into
and through the wall and hit a person on the opposite
side.
(9) Use extra caution when driving the Nailer into
existing walls or other blind areas to prevent
contact with hidden objects or persons on other
side (eg., wires, pipes).
(10) Check for live wires. Avoid the risk of severe
electrical shock by checking for live electrical wires
that may be hidden by walls, fl oors or ceilings. Turn
off the breaker switch to ensure there are no live
wires.
(11) Do not lift, pull or lower the Nailer by the hose.
(12) Do not disconnect air hose from Nailer with
fi nger on Trigger. The Nailer can fi re when re-
connected to An air supply.
(13) Handle Nailer correctly. Operate the Nailer
according to this Manual. Never allow the Nailer to
be operated by children, individuals unfamiliar with its
operation or unauthorized personnel.
(14) Never use Nailer for applications other than
those specifi ed in this manual.
(15) Never modify or alter a Nailer. Doing so may cause
it to malfunction and personal injuries may result.
(16) Disconnect the air hose when affi xing the hook.
(17) Do not affi x the hook on high or unstable
locations. Also, do not affi x it to the body,
clothing, belt or other personal items.
