German to English translations [PRO] Tech/Engineering - Electronics / Elect Eng / electrician's equipment
German term or phrase:Schußapparat
Still on the smae text about safe procedures when working on ladders in the electrical sector
This is a list of commonly used equipment:
Schraubenzieher, Spannungsprüfer, Zangen, Anreißstift, Lineal, Hammer, Meißel, etc., aber auch schwere Maschinen wie Bohrmaschine, Bohrhammer, Elektromaschinen zum Fräsen, Meißeln, Hämmern; **Schußapparate** werden heutzutage kaum noch eingesetzt.
The only thing I can find for Schußapparat is a "stunning pistol" (IATE) for killing animals and I can't think that's appropriate here.
Schussapparate im Sinne dieser Unfallverhütungsvorschrift sind tragbare oder nicht tragbare Geräte, aus denen durch Munition angetriebene feste Körper begrenzt oder ganz austreten.
Bolzensetzwerkzeuge sind Schussapparate, die dazu bestimmt sind, Setzbolzen mittels Munition in feste Werkstoffe einzutreiben.
Cartridge nailer - Similar in a way to the gas nailer, but using a small explosive cartridge to provide the motive power. These nailers really are a type of gun!. Cartridge nailers (such as those made by Hilti in their "direct fix" of DX range), are available for a multitude of specialist applications. These include special nails and fittings for cable, conduit, and trunking fixing, roof sheet fixing, grate and tray fixing. http://www.diyfaq.org.uk/powertools/nailer.htm
Yes, that's what I couldn't understand. Surely nail guns are used more often nowadays than previously? Evidently not. In saying that, I don't know how new this report is - all the references I've come across so far date back to the 80's, so it could be quite an old report.
with Metzger; however I do not understand why the tools enumerated here should be used less often nowadays. Interesting development.

The updates to the menu were made to make the site easy and more intuitive for visitors. Obviously, like any change, this may take a few days to get used to.
The dropdown menus have been divided into two-dimensional panels with similar items grouped together under headings. This eliminates scrolling for those with smaller screens, and also improves readability.
Mouseover your name at the top of the screen. Here you will find information about your account, your email settings, and more. The "My ProZ.com" menu was moved up here to simplify the main navigation, and to keep all of this type of information together.
