(2) Do not point the tool toward yourself or anyone whether it contains fasteners or not. (3) Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed firmly against the workpiece. [. . . ] A nail will be bent or the tool can become jammed if you mistakenly nail on top of another nail or strike a knot in the wood. The nail may be thrown and hit someone, or the tool itself can react dangerously. Do not leave the loaded tool or the air compressor under pressure for a long time out in the sun. Be sure that dust, sand, chips and foreign matter will not enter the tool in the place where you leave it setting. Do not point the ejection port at anyone in the vicinity. Keep hands and feet away from the ejection port area. When the air hose is connected, do not carry the tool with your finger on the trigger or hand it bar) to someone in this condition. Handle the tool carefully, as there is high pressure inside the tool that can be dangerous if a crack is caused by rough handling (dropping or striking).

Do not modify tool without authorization from Makita. Do not attempt to keep the trigger or contact element depressed with tape or wire. Always check contact element as instructed in this manual.

WARNING: MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury. This fastener driving tool is operated by actuating the trigger using finger pressure. Some fastener driving tools are fitted with an additional safety yoke which enables the driving operation to be carried out only after the muzzle of the tool is pressed against a workpiece. These tools are marked with an inverted triangle ( ) and may not be used unless fitted with an effective safety yoke. Depending on their purpose, fastener driving tools may be fitted with different actuating systems. see the respective technical data sheet for details of the actuating system of the tools. Single sequential actuation (preferred version): An actuating system in which the safety yoke and the trigger have to be activated in such a way that one single driving operation is actuated via the trigger after the muzzle of the tool has been applied to the driving location. [. . . ] Set the air pressure initially to the lower value of the recommended operating pressure (see technical data). Empty the magazine to prevent a fastener from being ejected at the next stage of work in the event that internal parts of the fastener driving tool are not in the starting position following maintenance and repair work or transportation. Connect the fastener driving tool to the compressed air supply using suitable pressure hose equipped with quickaction connectors. When the tool leaves the factory it is adjusted in such a way that the fastener is driven in flush when the necessary operating pressure is used. [. . . ]
