avoided, WILL result in death or seri­ous injury.

● Read and understand

tool labels and manual.
Failure to follow warn­ings, dangers, and cau­tions could result in
DEATH or SERIOUS
INJURY.

General Safety Information
(Cont.)

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

● Do not make any modifications to the

tool without first obtaining written
approval from Campbell Hausfeld. Do
not use the tool if any shields or
guards are removed or altered. Do
not use the tool as a hammer.
Personal injury or tool
damage may occur.

● Avoid long extended periods of

work with the tool. Stop using the
tool if you feel pain in hands or
arms.

● Always check

that the Work
Contact Element
(WCE) is operat­ing properly. A
fastener could
accidentally be
driven 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
tools can be ejected from the front
of the tool. Personal injury may
occur.

Notice indicates

important infor­mation, that if not followed, MAY

cause damage to equipment.

NOTICE

!

CAUTION

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

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

RECOMMENDED HOOKUP

The illustration below shows the
recommended hookup for the tool.

1. The air com­pressor must be
able to main­tain a minimum
of 50 psi when
the tool 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 tool.
A filter can be used
to remove liquid and
solid impurities which
can rust or “gum up” internal parts
of the tool.

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

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

● Clean and check all air supply hoses
and fittings before connecting the
tool 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
tool 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 The Tool

LUBRICATION

This tool requires lubrication before
using the tool 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 tool proper­ly will dramatically shorten the life of
the tool and void the warranty.

1. Disconnect the

air supply from
the tool to add
lubricant.

2. Turn the tool so the

air inlet is facing up.
Place 4-5 drops of 30
W non-detergent oil
into air inlet. Do not
