No it does not. ANSI A10.3 states that, "lt is the employer’s responsibility to see that all tool operators are trained for the particular tool being used". See the Ramset online training and certification program for quick certification PAT LICENSING.

High velocity fasteners, loads, and tool parts were discontinued in the late 1980's by all U.S. manufacturers. This was largely due to ANSI and OSHA requiring that only the lowest class of tool that will properly set a fastener be used. Other requirements highly restricted the use of these tools to where the tool manufacturer's had little choice but to discontinue them in favor of the low velocity tools available today.

Some of these commonly found obsolete high velocity tool models include: 122MD, 33013134, 33013138, 238M.

If a schematic for the tool cannot be found on the Ramset website, parts for that tool are no longer available from Ramset. Please see the list of discontinued Ramset tools where parts are no longer available.
