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. h ) 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) Battery Tool Use and Care a ) 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. b ) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire. c ) 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. d ) 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. e ) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury. f ) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 265 °F (130 °C) may cause explosion. g ) 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. 6) Service a ) 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. b ) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers. English Nailer Safety Warnings • Always assume that the tool contains fasteners. Careless handling of the nailer can result in unexpected firing of fasteners and personal injury. • Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone nearby. Unexpected triggering will discharge a fastener causing an injury. • 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. • 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 plugged in. • 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. Additional Nailer Safety Warnings  WARNING: When using any nailer, all safety precautions, as outlined below, should be followed to avoid the risk of death or serious injury. Read and understand all instructions before operating the tool.  WARNING: NEVER spray or in any other way apply lubricants or cleaning solvents inside the tool. This can seriously affect the life and performance of the tool.  WARNING: If the tool has been dropped or you suspect tool damage perform tool operation check as defined in the mode selection section of the manual. If it doesn't perform according to the manual, stop using the tool and have it serviced at an authorized DeWALT service center. • Keep hands and body parts away from the discharge area of the tool. While in use NEVER grasp the tool by the magazine or canister, a mis-driven nail can exit the nose causing injury. • Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. • Actuating tool may result in flying debris, collation material, or dust which could harm operator's eyes. Operator and others in work area MUST wear safety glasses with side shields. These safety glasses must conform to ANSI Z87.1 requirements (approved glasses have "Z87" printed or stamped on them. It is the employer's responsibility to enforce the use of eye protection equipment by the tool operator and other people in the work area. • Always wear appropriate personal hearing and other protection during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss. 3
