WARNING: Use only the nails recommended for use with this tool. The use of any other nails can result in tool malfunction, leading to serious injuries. WARNING: Always use an air fitting that discharges all the compressed air in the tool at the time the air fitting and air hose connector is disconnected. Using an air fitting that does not discharge the compressed air could cause unintended operation and serious personal injury. WARNING: Do not climb rigging or scaffolding while carrying a tool that is connected to an air hose. Doing so could result in serious personal injury.

Be sure the nails are pointed downward. CORRECT NAIL POSITION  Nails should always be inserted with the points down- ward, fitting into the nail track, or as close as possible to the nail track.  Nail heads must sit either on the top edge of a rib or inside a track between two ribs.  Nail heads should never lie on top of a rib without sitting on the rib edge. Do not position nail heads in the center of a rib.  The strip of nails should not be centered in the magazine or positioned at the top portion of the magazine.  If the nail points will not sit inside the track without sitting incorrectly on a rib, move the nail strip up slightly until the heads sit on the top edge of a rib.  To close the magazine, depress the latch and push the magazine forward. Release the latch and make sure the latch is securely locked into place before driving a nail. 10 - English
