RAMSET 721 Operations Instructions download pdf (Page 4)

Loads & Load Selection Safety

1. Always make a test fastening after

being sure that the base material

is suitable for powder actuated

fastening. Failure to determine the

correct power level to be used may

result in the use of excessive power,

allowing the fastener to pass completely

through the work material, causing

serious or fatal injuries to others who

may be in the path of the fastener.

2. Color-blind operators must always

select loads by number to prevent

use of an incorrect load for the same

reasons as in #1 above.

Workplace Safety

1. Operators and bystanders must

always wear approved eye protection

and approved hearing protection.

Failure to do so may result in blindness

or serious eye injury from flying debris

and loss of hearing from constant or

repeated unprotected exposure to

fastening noise.

2. Always keep the work area clear of

bystanders and unnecessary materials

that could interfere with safe tool

operation. Operating the tool in a

congested or cluttered area may affect

your ability to operate the tool safely.

3. Never operate tool if flammable

or explosive materials are nearby.

Powder loads burn and create sparks

when fired and could ignite these

materials or fumes.

4. Always post warning signs within

50 ft. of the area where fastening

is to be done. Sign must state:

“WARNING - Powder Actuated Tool

In Use”. Failure to warn others

may result in serious injury to them.
