1. Always know the thickness and type of base material into which you are
fastening.Neverguess.TestthebasematerialbyusingtheCenterPunchTest.
The Center Punch Test is performed by using a hammer to test drive the
particular power fastener to be used into the material. If the point penetrates
easily, the material is too soft. If the point becomes blunt, the material is too
hard.Ifthematerialfractures,cracksorshatters,thematerialistoobrittle.Test
fastenings can be made if the material shows a clear fastener impression and
the fastener point is not blunted. Always start with the lowest power load
(Green-Level 3) and proceeding with the order shown in the lower right-hand
figure above. Always wear approved goggles.

Safety Precautions
3. Never make fastenings in spalled or cracked areas.
2. Never attempt to drive power fasteners into very hard or brittle materials
including,butnotlimitedtocastiron,glass,tile,stone,brick, orhardenedsteel.
Materials of this type tend to shatter and create hazard from flying particles.
TILE BRICK
4. Neverdrive power fastenersinto thinor easily penetratedmaterials unless itis
backed by concrete or steel. When in doubt, such as when base material is
concealed, conduct a Center Punch Test (See page 6). Check continually to
avoid fastening into unsuitable material, especially in older buildings.
5. Do not fasten through or within 1/2" of predrilled or pre-punched holes.
