SAFETY — Continued
WARNING
When using tools, basic precautions should always be followed, Including the following:
1. Work area
(1) Keep the work area clean and well lighted.
Cluttered benches and dark areas increase the risks
of electric shock, fi re, and injury to persons.
(2) Do not operate the Stapler in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
fl ammable liquids, gases, or combustible dust.
The Stapler is able to create sparks resulting in the
ignition of the dust or fumes.
(3) Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away
while operating the Stapler. Distractions are able
to result in the loss of control of the Stapler.
2. Personal safety
(1) Stay alert. Focus on your work and use common
sense when working with the Stapler. Do not use
the Stapler while tired, after having consumed
drugs or alcohol, or while under the infl uence of
medication.
A moment of inattention while operating the Stapler
increases the risk of injury to persons.
(2) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep hair, clothing,
and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair increases the
risk of injury to persons as a result of being caught in
moving parts.
(3) Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the switch
is off before connecting to the air supply. Do not
carry the Stapler with your fi nger on the switch or
connect the Stapler to the air supply with the switch on.
(4)
– Disconnect the Stapler
from the air source before making adjustments,
doing Stapler maintenance, clearing jams,
touching the Push Lever, attaching or removing
the nose cap, when not in use, leaving work area,
leaving the Stapler outside of the operator's
supervision or control, loading, or unloading the
Stapler, handing it to another person, elevating,
lowering or otherwise moving the Stapler to a
new location. Never attempt to clear a jam or repair
the Stapler unless you have disconnected air hose
from the Stapler and removed all remaining fasteners
from the Stapler. The Stapler should never be left
unattended since people who are not familiar with the
Stapler might handle it and injure the themselves.
Such precautionary measures reduce the risk of
injury to persons.
(5) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. Proper footing and balance
enables better control of the Stapler in unexpected
situations.
(6) Use safety equipment. A dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes and a hard hat must be used for the
applicable conditions.
(7)
– Risk of hearing loss. Wear
hearing protection. Hearing protection shall
have a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) determined
in accordance with US Environmental Protection
Agency rules that is appropriate for noise exposure.
(8) Always wear head protection.
Always wear head protection to protect your
head from fl ying objects.
(9) Do not attach the hose or Stapler to your body.
Attach the hose to the structure to reduce the risk of
loss of balance if the hose shifts.
(10)
– Drive Staples into proper
work surface only. Do not drive staple into other
staples. This is able to cause the fastener to be
defl ected and hit someone, or cause the Stapler to
react and result in a risk of injury to persons.
3. Stapler use and care
(1) Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against the body is
unstable and is able to lead to loss of control.
(2) Do not force the Stapler. Use the correct Stapler
for the application. The correct Stapler will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which the Stapler is
designed.
