General Knowledge

  1. Always wear your safety glasses

  2. All nailers are equipped with safety switch which is located on the tip of the nose. The gun will not fire any nails unless these safety switches are depressed.

  3. Even though these guns have safety switches never aim them at somebody

  4. Due to the shape on the tip of the nail, when a nail hits a solid object it will tend to deflect up to the side of the nailer.

  5. Even though the nails tend to deflect to the side, still keep free hand well away from the nose of the gun.

  6. Make sure that the air hose feeding the nailer is rated to handle the amount of pressure you have the compressor set to.
