SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Warning : Read the manual carefully before use. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in injury and/or damage to property. Save the manual in a safe place for future reference.

  • Only staples which are compatible with the tool must be used.
  • Quick action couplings must be used for connection to the compressed air system and the non-sealable nipple must be fitted on the tool in such a way that no compressed air remains in the tool after disconnection.
  • Oxygen or combustible gases must not be used as an energy source for this tool.
  • Make sure to connect the tool to an air supply where the maximum allowable pressure of the tool cannot be exceeded by more than 10%. In case of higher pressure, a pressure reducing valve which includes a downstream safety valve must be built into the compressed air supply.
  • Only spare parts specified by the manufacturer must be used in order to repair the tool.
  • Repairs must only be carried out by the manufacturer’s authorized agents or by other experts, having due regard to the information given in the operating instructions.
  • Stands for mounting the tool to a support, for example to a work table, must be designed and constructed by the stand manufacturer in such a way that the tool can be safely fixed for the intended use in order to avoid the risk of injury.
  • For the maintenance and repair of the tool, only spare parts specified by the manufacturer or its authorized representative must be used.
  • Check prior to each operation that the safety and triggering mechanism is functioning properly and that all nuts and bolts are tight.
  • Do not modify the tool in any way.
  • Do not operate the tool if it is damaged in any way.
  • Do not operate the tool unless all parts are correctly installed.
  • The tool must be serviced properly and at regular intervals in order to ensure optimum performance.
  • Avoid damaging the tool and protect it from impacts with hard objects.

Safety during operation

  • While operating the tool, do not point it at yourself or at any other person or animals.
  • Hold the tool during operation in such a way that no injuries can be caused to the head or to the body in the event of possible recoil which can occur upon disruption of the energy supply or if the tool comes into contact with hard objects.
  • Never press the trigger into free space. This will avoid any hazard caused by ejected staples.
  • The tool must be disconnected from the compressed air system before it is transported.
  • Carry the tool only by the handle and never with the trigger pressed.
  • Take conditions at the workplace into account. Staples can penetrate thin work pieces or slip off corners and edges of workplaces, and thus put people at risk.
  • For personal safety, use protective equipment such as hearing and eye protection.
  • The tool is fitted with a safety device which only allows the tool to operate after the muzzle of the tool has been pressed against a workpiece. Such tools are marked with an inverted triangle behind the serial number and must not be operated without the safety device in place.
    Important: DO NOT direct the adjustable vent hole towards the operator or other persons or animals during operation.

Compressed air system (fig. 1)

  • For proper operation of the tool, an adequate quantity of filtered, dry compressed air is required.
  • If the air pressure in the compressed air system exceeds the maximum allowable of the tool, a pressure reducing valve followed by a downstream safety valve must additionally be fitted in the compressed air line powering the tool.
  • When compressed air is generated by compressors, the natural moisture in the air condenses and collects as condensed water in the system. This condensate must be removed by water separators. These water separators must be checked on a daily basis and if necessary drained, since corrosion can otherwise develop in the compressed air system and in the tool which causes the rate of wear to accelerate.
  • The compressor must be adequately dimensioned in terms of pressure output and performance (volumetric flow) for the consumption which is to be expected. Pipes which are too small in relation to the length of the pipe as well as overloading the compressor will result in pressure drops.

SPECIFICATIONS

Technical Data

  • Model BAT6130
  • Compatible staples Staple type 80 (8-16 mm)
  • The manufacturer reserves the right to make minor changes to product design and technical specifications without prior notice unless these changes significantly affect the performance and safety of the products. The parts described/illustrated in the pages of the manual that you hold in your hands may also concern other models of the manufacturer’s product line with similar features and may not be included in the product you just acquired.
  • To ensure the safety and reliability of the product and the warranty validity, all repair, inspection, repair or replacement work, including maintenance and special adjustments, must only be carried out by technicians of the authorized service department of the manufacturer.
  • Always use the product with the supplied equipment. Operation of the product with non-provided equipment may cause malfunctions or even serious injury or death. The manufacturer and the importer shall not be liable for injuries and damages resulting from the use of non-conforming equipment.

OPERATION

Connection to the compressed air system

  • Ensure that the pressure supplied by the compressed air system does not exceed the maximum allowable pressure of the tool.
  • Set the air pressure initially to the lower value of the recommended allowable pressure.
  • Empty the magazine to prevent a staple from being ejected at the next stage of work in the event that internal parts of the tool are not correctly installed following maintenance and repair work or transportation.
  • Connect the tool to the compressed air supply using a suitable pressure hose equipped with quick-action connectors.
  • Check for proper functioning by applying the muzzle of the tool to a piece of wood or wooden material and pressing the trigger once or twice.

Filling the magazine

  • Fill the magazine only with staples compatible with the tool.
  • When filling the magazine, hold the tool so that the muzzle is not pointing towards the operator or any other person or animals.

Proper use

  • Having checked that the tool is functioning correctly, apply the tool to a workpiece and press the trigger.
  • Check whether the staple has been driven into the workpiece in accordance with the requirements.
    • If the staple is protruding, increase the air pressure in increments of 0.5 bar, checking the result after each new adjustment.
    • If the staple is driven into an excessive depth, reduce the air pressure in increments of 0.5 bar until the result is satisfactory.
  • You should endeavor in any event to work with the lowest possible air pressure in order to conserve energy, produce less noise and reduce the rate of wear of the tool.
  • Avoid pressing the trigger if the magazine is empty.
  • Any defective or improperly functioning tool must immediately be disconnected from the compressed air supply and sent to the manufacturer or an authorized dealer of the manufacturer for inspection and repair.
  • Always disconnect the tool from the compressed air supply and empty the magazine before taking a break and after having stopped work with the tool.
  • The compressed air connectors of the tool and the hoses should be protected against contamination, the ingress of coarse dust chips, sand etc. Such contamination will result in leaks and damage to the tool and the couplings.

MAINTENANCE

  • Disconnect the tool from the compressor before adjusting, clearing jams, servicing & maintenance, relocating and during periods of non-use.
  • If an automatic lubricator is not installed, place 2 or 6 drops of pneumatic tool oil into the air inlet before each work day or after 2 hours of continuous use depending in the characteristic of the workpiece or type of staples to be used.
  • The tool must be inspected periodically and all worn or broken parts must be replaced to keep the tool operating safely and efficiently. Check and change all worn or damaged O-rings, seals, etc. Tighten all the screws and caps to avoid personal injury. This should be done by an expert.
  • Inspect the trigger, the spring and the safety mechanism on a regular basis to ensure that they are functioning properly and not damaged in any way.
  • Keep the magazine and the nose of the tool clean and free of any dirt, lint or abrasive particles.
  • When temperatures are below freezing, tools should be kept warm by any convenient, safe method.
