The nailer might eject a fastener

which could result in death or serious personal injury.

●Never carry the nail-

er by the air hose or pull the hose to move the nailer or a compressor. Keep hoses away from heat, oil and sharp

edges. Replace any hose that is damaged, weak or worn. Personal injury or tool damage could occur.

●Always assume the nailer contains nails. Never use the nailer as a toy. Do not engage in horseplay. Always keep others at a safe distance from the work area in case of accidental discharge of nails. Never point the nailer at anyone. Accidental triggering of the nailer could result in death or serious personal injury.

● Do not drive a nail on top of

other nails. The nail could glance and

cause death or a serious puncture wound.

● Do not operate or

allow anyone else to operate the nailer if any warnings or warning

labels are not legible. Warnings or warning labels are located on the nailer magazine and body.

●Never leave the nailer unattended or connected to an air compressor when not in use. Serious personal injury can occur if someone picks up and uses the nailer without knowing the correct way to operate the nailer.

●Do not drop or throw the tool. Dropping or throwing the tool can result in damage that will make the tool unusable or unsafe. If the tool has been dropped or thrown, examine the tool closely for bent, cracked or broken parts and air leaks. STOP and repair before using or serious injury could occur.

Caution indicates a potentially haz-

ardous situation which, if not avoided, MAY result in minor or moderate injury.

●Do not modify or alter the nailer or any nailer parts. Do not use the nailer if any shields or guards are removed or altered. Do not use the nailer as a hammer. Personal injury or tool damage may occur.

●Avoid long extended periods of work with the nailer. Stop using the

nailer if you feel pain in hands or arms.

● Always check that the Work Contact Element (WCE) is operating properly. A nail could accidentally be dri-

ven if the WCE

is not working properly. Personal injury may occur (see "Checking the Work Contact Element" Section.)

●Disconnect air supply and release tension from the pusher before attempting to clear jams because fasteners can be ejected from the front of the nailer. Personal injury may occur.

Notice indicates important informa-

tion, that if not followed, MAY cause damage to equipment.

●Avoid using the nailer when the magazine is empty. Accelerated wear on the nailer may occur.

●Clean and check all air supply hoses and fittings before connecting the nailer to an air supply. Replace any damaged or worn hoses or fittings. Tool performance or durability may be reduced.

●Air compressors providing air to the nailer should follow the requirements established by the American National Standards Institute Standard B19.3-1991; Safety Standard for Compressors for Process Industries. Contact your air compressor manufacturer for information.

Operating Instructions

Operating The Nailer

Read this manual and understand all safety warnings and instructions before 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 the warranty.

1. Disconnect the air supply from the nailer to add lubricant.

2. Turn the nailer so the air inlet is facing OIL up. Place 4-5 drops

of 30 W non-deter- gent oil into air inlet. Do not use detergent oils, oil

additives, or air tool oils. Air tool oils contain solvents which will damage the nailer's internal components.

3. After adding oil, run nailer briefly. Wipe off any excess oil from the cap exhaust.

RECOMMENDED HOOKUP

The illustration below shows the recommended hookup for the nailer.

1. The air com-

pressor must be able to maintain a minimum of

50 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. Use 3/8” air hoses with a minimum

working pressure of 150

psi. 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" (8mm) 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 50 and 100 psi.

Sequential Trip Safety

Mechanism

The NB0030 is equipped with a sequential trip safety mechanism. When the operator depresses the Work Contact Element (WCE) against the work surface and then pulls the trigger, a fastener will be driven.

OPERATING A SEQUENTIAL TRIP NAILER

1. Release trigger and place nose of tool against work surface.

2. Depress the Work Contact Element (WCE) against the work surface and pull the trigger to drive a fastener.

3. Release the trigger and lift the tool from the work surface after each fastener is driven.

CHECKING THE WORK CONTACT ELEMENT (WCE)

Check the operation of the Work

Contact Element (WCE) trip mechanism before each use. The WCE must move freely without binding through its entire travel distance. The WCE spring must return the WCE to its fully extended position after being depressed. Do not operate the nailer if the WCE trip mechanism is not operating properly. Personal injury may occur.

LOADING/UNLOADING THE NAILER

1.Always connect the tool to the air supply before loading fasteners.

2. Lift up on the	Latch
latch. Pull back
on the maga-
zine cover.

3. Insert a stick of Campbell Hausfeld nails or equivalent (see

"Fasteners" section) into the magazine. Make sure the pointed ends of the nails are resting on the bottom ledge of the magazine when loading. Make sure the nails are not dirty or damaged.

4. Push the magazine cover forward until the latch catches.

5.Always unload all fasteners before removing tool from service. Unloading is the reverse of loading, except always disconnect the air supply before unloading.

ADJUSTING THE NAIL PENETRATION

1.Regulate the air pressure to 50 psi at the nailer.

2.Connect the air supply and test for penetration by driving nails into a sample piece of wood. If the nails do not achieve the desired penetration, adjust the air pressure to a higher setting until the desired penetration is achieved. Do not exceed 100 psi at the nailer or durability of the nailer will be reduced.

CLEARING A JAM FROM THE NAILER

1.	Disconnect the
	air supply from
	the nailer.

2.Remove all

nails from the magazine (see "Loading/ Unloading The

Nailer"). Failure to do so will cause the nails to eject from the front of the nailer when the nose assembly is removed.

3.Remove (3)

cap screws from the nose of the tool.

Remove nose plate, spacer and Work Contact Element (WCE) to expose jammed fastener.

4.Reinstall nose assembly in reverse order in step #3.

5.Make sure the trig-

ger and Work
Contact Element
(WCE) move freely	movement
up and down with-
out sticking or binding.
