6 The precautions to be observed when using this tool/machine must be explained by the customer to all operators.
7 Always disconnect the airline from the tool/machine inlet before attempting to adjust, fit or remove a nose assembly.
• Air under pressure can cause severe injury
• Never direct air at yourself or any other person.
8 Do not operate a tool/machine that is directed towards any person(s).
9 Ensure that vent holes do not become blocked or covered and that hoses are always in good condition.
• Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always check for damage or loose hoses and fittings.
• Do not use quick connect couplings at the tool.
10 The operating pressure shall not exceed 6.3 bar - 94.5 lbf/in
11 Do not operate the tool without full nose equipment in place.
12 When using the tool, the wearing of safety glasses is required both by the operator and others in the vicinity to protect
against fastener projection, should a fastener be placed 'in air'. We recommend wearing gloves if there are sharp edges
or corners on the application.
13 Take care to avoid entanglement of loose clothes, ties, long hair, cleaning rags etc. in the moving parts of the tool which
should be kept dry and clean for best possible grip. Do not wear jewellery.
14 When carrying the tool from place to place keep hands away from the trigger/lever to avoid inadvertent start up.
15 Always adopt a firm footing or a stable position before operating the tool and be aware of a torque reaction on the hands
when the tool is operating, particularly during the reversing sequence. Grip the tool firmly to be able to counter the
torque reaction, but not too tightly.
• Side handles are recommended at torque settings above 4Nm (35 lbf.ins).
16 Immediately after adjusting the clutch, check for correct operation.
17 Keep hands away from the rotating drive screw and the nose end of the tool. If a fastener becomes jammed on the drive
screw, shut off the air supply and drain the supply line to the tool before attempting to dislodge it.
18 The tool is not electrically insulated.
19 This tool is not designed for use in combustible or explosive atmospheres.
