SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Always assume that the tool contains fasteners. Careless handling of the stop tool can result in unexpected firing of the fastener and injury to the operator.
• The tool must not be aimed at itself or anyone around it. Unexpected launch fires the fastener, which causes injury.
• The tool must not be lowered unless it is firmly placed on the workpiece. If the tool is not in contact with the workpiece, the fastener may deviate from the target.
• If the connecting material gets stuck in the tool, the tool must be disconnected from the power supply. If the stop tool is connected to the power supply, it may start accidentally during removal of the jammed fastener.
• Care must be taken when removing jammed fasteners. The mechanism may be under pressure and may fire sharply when the jammed material is released.
• This stop tool is not used to secure electrical cables. It is not designed for the installation of electrical cables and may damage the insulation of electrical cables, causing electric shock or fire.
• Hold the stop tool by the gripped insulated surfaces. The fastener can damage the insulation of a hidden electrical cable in a workpiece that is energized in the workpiece, which can cause the uninsulated metal parts of the power tool to become “alive” and result in electric shock to the user.
• When lifting the tool, moving between working areas, changing working positions or walking, do not leave your finger on the nail head lock, as a finger resting on the trigger could lead to unintentional operation of the tool.
• This tool has an operating mode of either selective contact start or continuous contact start according to the position of the start mode selector. Before using the stop tool, it is first necessary to make sure which start mode is set and what its operating principle is.
• Impact tools must only be used in safe work areas. A stable position must be taken when using the stop tool. When driving the connecting material, the stability of the operator may be impaired. For this reason, do not use the stop tool on ladders, chairs, scaffolding or other insufficiently stable surfaces.
• Before inserting / removing fasteners or other assembly and service work on the cordless tool, or when leaving the cordless tool unattended and remove the battery (store the power supply) before storing it.
• When working, hold the stop tool in such a way that the head or body cannot be injured in kickback due to a power failure or hard spots in the workpiece, as well as hitting the body with a nail from hard ground if the nail is not caught by the workpiece (eg at edges).

1. Pay attention to the working environment. Nails can beat weak workpieces when hammered in, or they can slip when working in corners and edges, endangering people.
2. When working with the stop tool, pay attention to your own safety and the safety of bystanders, eg to prevent the nail from being shot into the limb if it is not caught by the workpiece, eg at the edges.
3. The tool must not be subjected to any temporary repairs with unsuitable tools or the use of non-original spare parts from the manufacturer, or the tool must not be otherwise modified for any other purpose.
4. During operation, the device generates an electromagnetic field that can adversely affect the operation of active or passive medical implants (pacemakers) and endanger the user’s life. Check with your doctor or implant manufacturer before using this tool to see if you can work with this device.

General safety instructions for power tools

CAUTION!
All safety instructions, operating instructions, pictures and regulations supplied with this tool must be read. Failure to follow all of the following instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and / or serious personal injury.

All instructions and instructions for use must be kept for future reference.
The term “power tool” in all of the following warnings refers to a mains- operated (flexible power supply) or a battery-powered power tool (without a movable power supply).

SAFETY OF THE WORK ENVIRONMENT

• Workplaces must be kept clean and well lit. Clutter and dark spaces are often the cause of accidents.
• Power tools must not be used in potentially explosive atmospheres where flammable liquids, gases or dust are present. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• When using a power tool, keep out of the reach of children and others. If the operator is disturbed, he may lose control of the activity being performed.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• The plug of the power tool’s flexible lead must match the power outlet. The forks must never be modified in any way. No socket adapters may be used with tools that have a protective earth connection. Plugs that are not damaged by modifications and the corresponding sockets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Operators must not touch grounded objects, such as pipes, central heating units, cookers and refrigerators. The risk of electric shock is greater if your body is connected to the ground.
• Power tools must not be exposed to rain, moisture or wetness. If water enters the power tool, the risk of electric shock increases.
• The flexible supply must not be used for other purposes. The power tool must not be carried or pulled by the power cord, nor must the plug be unplugged from the outlet. The inlet must be protected from heat, grease, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or tangled leads increase the risk of electric shock.
• If the power tool is used outdoors, an extension cord suitable for outdoor use must be used. Using an extension cord for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• If the power tool is used in humid areas, a RCD protected power supply must be used. Using an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. The term “RCD” may be replaced by “main circuit breaker (GFCI)” or “leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)”.

PERSONAL SAFETY

• When using a power tool, the operator must be careful, pay attention to what he is doing, and concentrate and think soberly. Power tools must not be used if the operator is tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. Momentary inattention while using a power tool can result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a respirator, non-slip safety shoes, hard headgear or hearing protection, used in accordance with the working conditions, reduces the risk of personal injury.
• Unintentional starting of the machine must be avoided. Make sure that the switch is in the off position before plugging in and / or connecting the battery pack, lifting or carrying the tool. Carrying a tool with your finger on the switch or plugging in a tool fork with the switch on can cause accidents.
• All adjusting tools or wrenches must be removed before turning on the tool. An adjusting tool or wrench that remains attached to the rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
• The operator must only work where he can reach safely. The operator must always maintain a stable posture and balance. This will allow better control of the power tool in unforeseen situations.
• Dress appropriately. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. The operator must make sure that his hair and clothing are far enough away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry and long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• Where means are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, care shall be taken to ensure that such equipment is connected and used correctly. The use of these devices can reduce the hazards caused by dust.
• The operator must not allow the routine, which is based on the frequent use of the tool, to become complacent and ignore the principles of tool safety. Careless operation can cause serious injury in a fraction of a second.
