# Filling/Emptying the Magazine (see figure B)

- Be careful when handling nails, especially when loading and unloading. The nails have sharp points which may result in personal injury.

- Only use nails that have been recommended by Bosch for your power tool. Using unapproved nails can damage the power tool and cause injuries.

During any work on the magazine, hold the power tool in such a manner that the outlet (18) is not pointed at your body or at other persons.
