5. NEVER CARRY THE TOOL WITH YOUR
FINGER ON, OR DEPRESSING, THE TRIGGER.
You must remember that the GypFast (G2) tool
operates in a specific sequence. The Safety
Yoke acts as an operating feature that blocks the
Trigger from completing the ignition circuit. Should
you unintentionally depress the Safety Yoke while
pulling the Trigger as you are carrying the tool...
it could discharge a fastener.
6. NEVER OPERATE A TOOL THAT IS
MALFUNCTIONING. If you determine that the
GypFast (G2) tool is not working properly, and the
problem is more than a simple fastener jam, stop
using it immediately and refer to the Servicing
Section of this manual. If the problem cannot be
corrected with one of the steps covered in the
Servicing Section, report the problem to your
supervisor or Ramset Distributor representative.
Do not attempt to make any additional repairs
to the GypFast (G2) tool.
7. OPERATE THE TOOL ONLY ON THE WORK
SURFACE. The GypFast (G2)
tool should be operated only
when it is in contact with the
work surface. Always hold the
tool firm and perpendicular
against the surface to be fastened.
8. NEVER DISABLE OR REMOVE THE SAFETY
YOKE. The GypFast (G2) tool is equipped with a
device called the Safety Yoke. This device helps
reduce the possibility of accidental operation by
preventing the tool from operating until it is fully
depressed on the work surface. The Safety Yoke
must never be disabled or removed. Do not use
the GypFast (G2) tool if the Safety Yoke is not
working properly.
9. DO NOT LOAD FASTENERS WITH
THE TRIGGER OR SAFETY YOKE DEPRESSED.
When loading fasteners into the GypFast (G2) tool,
you
must avoid pulling the Trigger or while having
the
Safety Yoke depressed. When the tool is
placed on a bench or other surface, the Safety
Yoke might be depressed. When you are loading
fasteners, you could accidentally pull the Trigger
by grasping the Handle to steady the tool. These
two actions will cause the GypFast (G2) tool to
operate, discharging a fastener.
10. FASTENER REMOVAL OR CLEARING
JAMS. With the GypFast (G2) tool pointed away
from you and others, slightly push the Release
Lever to open the Magazine door. Tip the tool
Nose up slightly, and the fasteners will slide out.
If you have a jammed fastener, or other problem
with the operation of your GypFast (G2) tool, you
should stop attempting to use the tool and refer
immediately to the Servicing Section of the manual.
11. NEVER ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THE
GypFast (G2) TOOL IF PARTS ARE LOOSE,
DAMAGED, OR MISSING. Make sure all
screws
and nuts are properly tightened and
all parts are properly installed and in good
working order. If parts are missing, don’t
attempt to make temporary repairs...contact
your Sales Representative immediately.
12. NEVER DRIVE FASTENERS ON TOP OF
OTHER
FASTENERS OR TOO CLOSE TO OTHER
FASTENERS.
Fastening on top of or too close to
other fasteners can cause the fastener to ricochet
and cause serious injury. Fasten only in areas
where the entire shank can penetrate.
13. NEVER FIRE INTO VERY HARD OR
BRITTLE MATERIALS SUCH AS CAST IRON,
TILE, GLASS, OR ROCK. These materials can
shatter, causing sharp fragments and/or the
fastener to fly freely.
