General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications
provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool”
in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY 1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas
invite accidents. 2. 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. 3. Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY 4. 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. 5. 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. 6. Do not expose power tools to
rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock. 7. 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. 8. 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.
9. 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.
PERSONAL SAFETY 10. 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. 11. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries. 12. 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 energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
13. 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. 14. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
15. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
16. 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.
17. 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.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE 18. 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. 19. 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. 20. Disconnect the plug
from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the
pow-
er tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally. 21. 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. 22. 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. 23.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. 24. 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. 25. 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.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE 26. 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.
27. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of
any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire. 28. 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. 29. 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. 30. Do not use a battery pack or tool
that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury. 31. Do
not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure
to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
5
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
32. Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or
tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
SERVICE 33. 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. 34. Never
service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be
performed by the manufac-
turer or authorized service providers.
Nailer Safety Warnings
1. Always assume the tool contains fasteners. Careless handling of the nailer
can result in unexpected firing of fasteners and personal injury.
2. Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone nearby. Unexpected
triggering will discharge the fastener causing an injury.
3. Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed firmly against the
workpiece. If the tool is not in contact with the workpiece, the fastener may
be deflected away from your target.
4. Disconnect the tool from the power source when the fastener jams in the
tool. While removing a jammed fastener, the nailer may be accidentally
activated if it is energized.
5. Use caution while removing a jammed fastener. The mechanism may be under
compression and the fastener may be forcefully discharged while attempting to
free a jammed condition.
6. Do not use this nailer for fastening electrical cables. It is not designed
for electric cable installation and may damage the insulation of electric
cables thereby causing electric shock or fire hazards.
7. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an
operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a
“live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could
give the operator an electric shock.
8. Do not use the power tool in locations where the ambient temperature may
reach below 0°C (32°F) or above 40°C (104°F).
9. A battery short can cause a large current flow, overheating, possible
burns and even a breakdown. · Do not touch the terminals with any conductive
material. · Avoid storing battery cartridge in a container with other metal
objects such as nails, coins, etc. · Do not expose battery cartridge to water
or rain.
10. Consecutive charging may cause overheating. If you need to recharge
batteries consecutively, wait about 15 minutes for the charger to cool.

SAFETY WARNINGS
Additional Safety Warnings
To prevent eye injuries, always wear OSHA required “Z87” safety glasses with
permanently attached rigid, hard plastic side shields. These safety glasses
must have “Z87” printed or stamped on them. Be sure everyone in your work area
is wearing the same type of safety glasses.
DANGER: The Fusion tool is charged with compressed air in a sealed chamber.
Prior to any service or repair, release the charge of pressurized gas. The
pressurized air must be released prior to service. Major components such as
the piston/driver assembly, gearbox, piston stop and guide body are all part
of the drive assembly. Deliberate tampering with the drive assembly may result
in the release of the driver. Any repair or upgrade requiring access to the
pressure chamber may be handled by an authorized Senco dealer or service
center. Disconnect tool from battery when: · Outside of the operator’s
supervision or control. · Performing maintenance or repair · Clearing a jam ·
Moving the tool to a new location With battery disconnected, make daily
inspection to assure free movement of workpiece contact element and trigger.
Do not use tool if workpiece contact element or trigger sticks or binds.
Always remove finger from trigger when not driving fasteners. Never carry the
tool with finger on or under trigger. Tool will eject a fastener if the
workpiece contact element is bumped and the trigger is pulled. Drive fasteners
into work surface only; never into materials too hard to penetrate. Do not
drive fasteners on top of other fasteners or with the tool at too steep of an
angle; the fasteners can ricochet and hurt someone. When using tool, care
should be taken due to possibility of tool recoil after a fastener is driven.
If workpiece contact element is unintentionally allowed to re-contact work
surface following a recoil, an unwanted fastener may be driven. Therefore,
allow tool to recoil completely off work surface after a fastener is driven to
avoid this condition. Do not push workpiece contact element on work surface
until a second fastener is desired. Please review triggering options. Do not
drive fasteners close to the edge of the work surface. The workpiece is likely
to split and the fastener could fly or ricochet and hit someone. Never use any
part of the tool (i.e., the cap or mainbody ) as a hammer. The tool may
activate or become damaged and result in an unsafe condition.
