AIR SUPPLY

WARNING!

Compressed air can be dangerous. Ensure that you are thoroughly familiar with

all precautions relating to the use of compressors and compressed air supply.

Tools of this type, operate on a wide range of air pressures. It is recommended that air
pressure be set to between 60 and 100psi. at the tool when running.

Higher pressure and unclean air will shorten the tools’ life because of faster wear, and could
be a safety hazard.

Water in the air line will cause damage to the tool, ensure it is properly maintained at all times.
The recommended procedure to connect this tool to an air supply, is shown on page 11.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply, is a 10mm Quick Fit type.
Line pressure, or hose ID., should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses

(over 10M). Minimum hose dia. should be 6mm (1/4”) ID., and fittings should have the same
inside dimensions.

ASSEMBLY

Ensure the tool is not loaded, then, with the air supply turned OFF, connect the air line to
the Nailer at the Quick Fit coupling.
With your fingers well away from the trigger, and the tool pointed away from you, and
anyone in the vicinity, depress the magazine catch, pull out the magazine and load with
appropriate nails or staples...as shown,

Staples

Push the magazine back until it locks in position, - Your Nailer/Stapler is now ready for use.

OPERATION

Turn ON the air supply, and check for air leaks. If any are apparent, rectify before
proceeding. Ensure the operating pressure is set to between 4-7bar (60-100psi), depending
upon the size of nail used and type of material being worked. The harder the material,
and bigger the nail, the higher the pressure.

Hold the tool so that it is at right angles to the work. Lower it so that the Safety Element
contacts the work surface, and is forced upwards. This movement releases the Trigger,
which may now be pulled, driving in the nail or staple.

To Clear a jam, ensure the air is turned OFF, and the trigger pulled to ensure the airline is
not under pressure, before opening the magazine and pulling out the offending nail/
staple. Close the Magazine, turn on the air and proceed.

MAINTENANCE

Daily before use.

1. Drain water from compressor air tank, and air line.

2. Check and clean, if necessary, the air inlet gauze filter.

3. A bottle of CLARKE Air Line Oil** is supplied with the kit. Squirt a few drops of oil
(approx. 3cc), into the air inlet.

This should be carried out regardless of whether or not an air line lubricator is
used.

During Use.

For lubricating the internal components when in operation, an air line lubricator
should be used, with Clarke Air Line Oil**, adjusted to 2 drops per minute. (see p.7)

If an Air line lubricator is NOT used, this procedure should be repeated after every
two to three hours of use.

Storage.

If the Nailer is to be stored, or is idle for longer than 24 hours, run a few drops of
Clarke Air Line Oil* into the air inlet before storing.

Notes

Be aware that factors other than the tool may effect its operation and efficiency
such as reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the airline, moisture or
restrictions in the line, or the use of connectors of improper size or poor condition
which will reduce air supply.

Grit or gum deposits in the tool may also reduce efficiency. This condition can be
corrected by cleaning the air strainer and flushing out the tool with gum solvent
oil, or failing this, the tool should be disassembled, thoroughly cleaned, dried and
reassembled.

If the tool runs erratically or becomes inefficient, and the air supply is sound,
dismantle the piston assembly and replace worn or damaged parts, or take the
tool to your CLARKE dealer.

**Clarke Air Line Oil is available from your CLARKE dealer part no. 3050825.

IMPORTANT:

The use of parts other than CLARKE replacement parts may result in safely

hazards, decreased tool performance and will invalidate your warranty.
