1. GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNING

WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

1) Work area safety

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3) Personal safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

4) Power tool use and care

• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
• Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

5) Service

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

6) Battery tool use and care

• Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
• Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

6. OPERATION

⚠️ WARNING: Make sure you have read all safety instructions. This tool comes completely assembled. There is no assembly required. Make sure the tool is powered off before any operations.

6.1 Operation Steps

1. Make sure the tool is powered off.
2. The staple and nail gun has a bottom load staple magazine. Turn the tool upside down and squeeze the pusher assembly. (See Fig. 2)
3. Pull the quick release magazine out until it stops. (See Fig. 3)
4. Place a stick of staples in the bottom channel so legs are pointing up. For narrow flat crown, cable, brads, and pins, place only on the left side. Push the slide closed, making sure that the latch engages. (See Fig. 4 & 5)
5. For pins, ensure the flat end is pointing down and the sharp tip is pointing up. Push the slide closed, making sure that the latch engages. For staples, place staples into the magazine with the points facing up and out of the tool. Never attempt to completely remove the release magazine assembly, as this may damage the tool and void the warranty. Close the release magazine until it snaps into place. (See Fig. 6)
6. On very hard surfaces, firing recoil may interfere with nail/staple penetration. Enhance driving power by firmly placing one hand on top of the cap. (See Fig. 7)

6.2 Firing your tool

1. To fire your tool, make sure the tool is powered on. Place the tool on your workpiece, depressing the contact safety on the front of the tool.
2. Once the contact safety is depressed, push the trigger to fire your staple.
3. You must pick up the front of the tool and reactivate the contact safety for each shot.

6.3 How to determine proper staple leg size

In choosing the proper staple leg length for a job, there are two basic things to consider:

1. Thickness of material to be stapled.
2. Hardness of the wood. As a general rule, in hardwood, approximately 3/16" to 1/4" penetration into the wood is sufficient. For softwood, up to approximately 3/8" should be sufficient. The staple should be flush with the underlying surface, as shown in (Fig. 8b). However, if the staple used is not flush with the underlying surface, as shown in (Fig. 8a), this means that too long a leg length has been used. In that case, we recommend the next shorter leg length for desired results.

Figure 8: Staple Penetration

• (a) Incorrect: Staple leg is too long and not flush with the surface.
• (b) Correct: Staple leg is flush with the surface.
