•

Wear hearing protection to protect your ears

against exhaust noise and head protection. Also

wear light but not loose clothing. Sleeves should

be buttoned or rolled up. No necktie should be

worn.

Work area safety

• Never use the tool in enclosed or poorly ventilated

spaces. Otherwise carbon monoxide may cause

dizziness, nausea or unconsciousness.

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or

dark areas invite accidents.

• Do not operate the tool in explosive atmospheres,

such as in the presence of flammable liquids,

gases or dust. Operating the tool can create

sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

• Keep children and bystanders away while

operating the tool. Distractions can cause you to

lose control.

• Illuminate the work area sufficiently.

• There may be local regulations concerning noise

which must be complied with by keeping noise

levels within prescribed limits. In certain cases,

shutters should be used to contain noise.

Safety devices

• Make sure all safety systems are in working order

before operation. The tool must not operate if only

the trigger is pulled or if only the contact arm is

pressed against the wood. It must work only when

both actions are performed. Test for possible faulty

operation with fasteners unloaded and the pusher

in fully pulled position.

• Do not play with the contact element: it prevents

accidental discharge, so it must be kept on and

not removed. Securing the trigger in the ON

position is also very dangerous. Never attempt to

fasten the trigger. Do not operate a tool if any

portion of the tool operating controls is inoperable,

disconnected, altered, or not working properly.

• Do not attempt to keep the contact element

depressed with tape or wire. Death or serious

injury may occur.

• Always check contact element as instructed in this

manual. fasteners may be driven accidentally if the

safety mechanism is not working correctly.

Loading fasteners

• Do not load the tool with fasteners when any one

of the operating controls is activated.

• Use only fasteners specified in this manual. The

use of any other fasteners may cause malfunction

of the tool.

Power source

• Use the tool only with the Makita genuine fuel cell.

• Do not touch liquid gas sprayed out of the fuel cell.

Contact with it may cause injury.

• Risk of fire and explosion. When handling the fuel

cell for the purpose of storage, transportation,

inserting into and taking out of the tool and

disposal:

− do not expose to sunlight and to

temperatures exceeding 50 ﾟ C (122 ﾟ F);

− do not smoke;

− avoid sparks and open flame.

• Always remove the battery cartridge and remove

all of the fasteners:

− when unattended;

− before performing any maintenance or

repair;

− before cleaning a jam;

− before moving the tool to a new location.

Operational safety

• Always check the tool for its overall condition and

loose screws before operation. Tighten as required.

• Handle the tool carefully, as there is high pressure

inside the tool that can be dangerous if a crack is

caused by rough handling (dropping or striking).

Do not attempt to carve or engrave on the tool.

•

Stop the operation immediately if you notice

something wrong or out of the ordinary with the tool.

An improperly functioning tool must not be used.

• Do not point the ejection port at anyone in the

vicinity. Keep hands and feet away from the

ejection port area.

• Always assume that the tool contains fasteners.

• Never point the tool toward yourself or anyone

whether it contains fasteners or not.

• Do not rush the job or force the tool. Handle the

tool carefully.

• Do not activate the tool unless the tool is placed

firmly against the workpiece.

• Never hold or carry the tool with a finger on the

trigger or hand it to someone in this condition.

Accidental firing can cause serious injury.

• Never use fastener driving tools marked with the

symbol "Do not use on scaffoldings, ladders" for

specific application for example:

− when changing one driving location to

another involves the use of scaffoldings,

stairs, ladders, or ladder alike constructions,

e.g. roof laths;

− closing boxes or crates;

− fitting transportation safety systems e.g. on

vehicles and wagons.
