RIDGID R350PNF Manuel D'utilisation page 4

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
 During normal use the tool will recoil immediately
after driving a fastener. This is a normal function of
the tool. Do not attempt to prevent the recoil by holding
the nailer against the work. Restriction to the recoil can
result in a second fastener being driven from the nailer.
Grip the handle firmly, let the tool do the work and do not
place second hand on top of tool 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 tool at an overly steep angle as this may cause
deflection of fasteners which could cause injury.
 Do not drive fasteners close to the edge of the
workpiece as the wood may split, allowing the
fastener to be deflected possibly causing injury.
AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS
 Do not use oxygen, combustible gases or bottled
gases as a power source for this tool as tool will
explode, possibly causing injury or death.
 Do not use with an air compressor which can
potentially exceed 200 psi as tool may burst, possibly
causing injury.
 The connector on the tool must not hold pressure
when air supply is disconnected. If an incorrect fitting
is used, the tool can remain charged with air after
disconnecting and thus will be able to drive a fastener
even after the air line is disconnected, possibly causing
injury.
 Always disconnect air supply:
• Before making adjustments
• When servicing the tool
• When clearing a jam
• When tool is not in use
• When moving to a different work area, as accidental
actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.
LOADING TOOL
 Do not load the tool with fasteners when any one of
the operating controls is activated.
When loading tool:
 Use extreme caution when your hand or any other
part of your body is in the fastener discharge area.
 Never point tool at anyone.
 Do not depress the workpiece contact as, accidental
actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
 Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others
who may use this tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan
them these instructions also.
