Operating The Nailer

LUBRICATION

This nailer requires lubrication before
using the nailer for the first time and
before each use. If an inline oiler is
used, manual lubrication through the
air inlet is not required on a daily
basis.

The work

surface
can become damaged by excessive
lubrication. Proper lubrication is the
owner’s responsibility. Failure to
lubricate the nailer properly will
dramatically shorten the life of the
nailer and void your warranty.

1. Disconnect the air

supply from the nailer
to add lubricant.

2. Turn the nailer

so the air inlet
is facing up.
Place 4-5 drops
of 30 W non­detergent oil
into air inlet.
Do not use
detergent oils,
oil additives, or
air tool oils which contain solvents.
This will damage the nailer’s
internal components.

RECOMMENDED HOOKUP

The illustration below shows the
recommended hookup for the nailer.

1. The air
compressor
must be able
to maintain a
minimum of
70 psi when the nailer is being
used. An inadequate air supply can
cause a loss of power and
inconsistent driving.

2. An oiler can be
used to provide oil
circulation through
the nailer. A filter
can be used to
remove liquid and solid impurities
which can rust or “gum up”
internal parts of the nailer.

3. Always use air supply hoses with a
minimum working pressure rating
equal to or greater than the
pressure from the power source if
a regulator fails, or 150 psi,
whichever is greater. Use 3/8" air
hose for runs up to 50'. Use 1/2" air
hoses for 50' run or longer. For
better performance, install a 3/8"
quick plug (1/4" NPT threads) with
an inside diameter of .315" (8 mm)
on the nailer and a 3/8" quick
coupler on the air hose.

4. Use a pressure regulator on the
compressor, with an operating
pressure of 0 - 125 psi. A pressure
regulator is required to control the
operating pressure of the nailer
between 70 and 90 psi.

An
improperly functioning tool must not
be used. Do not actuate the tool unless
the tool is placed firmly against the
work piece.

Note: Make sure the rubber bumper
on the flooring nailer is in the up
position before adding the air hose,
if not, the nailer may cycle (see below).
