OPERATION

1. Turn ON the air supply and check for air leaks. If any are apparent, rectify

before proceeding.

2. Ensure the operating pressure is set to between 5.51 - 7.58 bar (80 - 110 psi),

depending upon the size of nail used and type of material being worked.

• Harder material or bigger nails will mean a higher pressure is required

3. Hold the nailer firmly with the safety yoke flat against the workpiece and at

90oto it.

4. Squeeze the trigger to drive the nail.

5. Each squeeze of the trigger will drive one nail only.

• If the nail is driven in too deep, reduce the air pressure in increments

of 0.5 bar (7 psi), checking the result after each adjustment. You

should aim, to work with the lowest possible air pressure. This will save

energy, produce less noise and reduce tool wear.

• If the nail is not driven in sufficiently, increase the air pressure in

increments of 0.5 bar (7 psi), checking the result after each

adjustment.

Avoid triggering the nailer when the nail magazine is empty. If the nailer

operates improperly or is defective, disconnect from the air supply and have

the tool inspected by a qualified service technician.

In the event of long breaks in work or at the end of the working session,

disconnect the tool from the air supply and empty the nail magazine.

The air connector of the nailer and the hose should be protected against

contamination. The ingress of coarse dust, chippings, sand etc will result in

leaks and damage to the nailer and the couplings.

DISCONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY

1. Refer to the compressor instruction book for the procedures to shut down

and release the compressed air.

WARNING: DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM OPERATING PRESSURE OF THE

TOOL; 8.27 BAR (120 PSI).

WARNING: NEVER DISCONNECT THE AIR SUPPLY HOSE UNTIL THE

COMPRESSOR HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN AND THE COMPRESSED AIR

RELEASE.
