Get ready for work – you must wear:

• a work shirt and pants,
• work shoes with composite toe caps,
• work gloves,
• safety glasses.

Before you start work, remember that you must:

• Complete health and safety training and on-the-job training.
• Have no health contraindications to performing the work.
• Be familiar with the operating instructions for the machines and equipment used at your workplace.

Before starting work with a manual pneumatic stapler:

• Prepare auxiliary equipment for storing materials, instruments, tools, and waste.
• Put on the required personal protective equipment, including safety glasses.
• Plan the sequence of operations.
• Check the technical condition of the stapler, safety devices, and the tightness of screws and nuts.
• Connect the stapler to the hoses and check for leaks.
• Perform a test run and check that the stapler is working properly.
• Report any faults you notice immediately to your supervisor.

During work:

• Keep your workplace tidy, do not scatter tools and items intended for processing or already processed.
• Arrange the materials to be stapled in a stable manner.
• Use staples that are appropriately sized for the material being stapled.
• Gradually remove unnecessary materials.

After finishing work:

• Turn off the device.
• Clean up the work area.
• Clean the device according to the manufacturer's instructions. Before cleaning, unplug the device and use only a soft cloth with a mild soap and water solution.
• Make sure that the device does not pose a hazard to the environment.

What NOT to do:

• Remove the covers and safety devices from the pneumatic stapler.
• Point the stapler toward yourself or others.
• Hold the stapler by any part other than the handle.
• Carry the stapler while it is connected, e.g., on a belt (close to the body).
• Shoot into thin elements (possibility of puncture).
• Use the stapler in areas where there is a risk of explosion.
• Work with the stapler on unstable surfaces.
• Shoot staples into the air.
• Use the stapler without staples – empty shot.
• Use gasoline or other flammable liquids for cleaning.
• Exceed the maximum allowable pressure.
• Press the trigger while carrying the stapler; never carry the stapler by the cord or use it to move the device.
• Place your hands or other body parts in the stapling path.

Malfunction or accident?

• If something breaks, disconnect the stapler from the power supply, secure it against restarting, and report the fault to your supervisor.
• If an accident has occurred, do not touch anything and inform your supervisor.
• Hang a sign on the damaged device saying: "DEVICE UNDER REPAIR – DO NOT TURN ON."
