• Air too_operators and all others in work area shoutd always wear safety goggles complying with United

States ANSI Z87.1 to prevent eye injury from fasteners and flying debris when loading, operating or

unloa_ng this too!.

• Never exceed operating pressure of 100 PSI.

• Always keep hands and body aWay

from the fastener discharge area when air euppty is connected to tool

• Always disconnect to01 from air sup- ply when servicing or a_usting tool

and when tool is not in use.

• Never point tool at yourself or others.

DESCRIPTION

The Craftsman Palm Air Driver (Model

182000) drives 3/4-5%"long nails.

Lightweight die cast aluminum body provides easy maneuverability where hammers and other fobls will not work.

Do not use oxygen, combustible g_ or high pressure compressed gas as

the air supply for the too[.

• Always use tool at safe distance from other people in work area..

• bo not attempt to di._harge fastener

intohard or brittle matefiats such as

Concrete, etse! or tile.

• [30 not connect female quick-connect coupling to tool side of air line.

• Connect male, free-flow nipple to tool side of air line so that tool is

deprassunzed when hose is _seon-

neoted.

Do not use a hose swivel with this

tool

Ddver has a magnetic nose to hold

nails for accurate, safe placement. The

Craftsman Palm Air Driver is ideal for installation of electricat boxes, rafter bracing, joint hangers, fencing, decking

and framing.

"73_eCraftsman Palm Air Dr_ver Ki_

(Model 182010) includes palm air driver plus storage case, glove, V," NPT quick

¢ony_ector, rnaintenanee kit, wrenches,

air tool oil, large nail and finish nail

guide bushings.

AIR SUPPLY LINE Refer to Pqgure1.

• The air tool operates on compressed air at pressures from 60 to 100 PSI.

• Never exceed maximum pressure.

Minimum air requirements for tool:

Average workingSCFM 0.34 @ 90 PSI. WARNING: Keep hands and body

away from discharge area _f tool when connecting air supply. Always discon.

nect tool from air supply when servicing or adjusting tool and when tool is not in

use.

• Air operated tools require clean, dry, compressed air to ensure top perf_F

mar=re, low maintenance and long life.

2 FootHoseWhip

• Did and abra_ve materials present in all air lines will damage tool

O-rings, valves add cylinders. Moisture will reduce toot perfor-

mance and life if not removed from compreseed air.

• A fiifer-regulatorqubricator system is required and should be located as

close to tool as possible (see F'lgura

1). A d}etance of less than 15 feet is

recommended. If an inline air filterllubricator system

is not used, the tool must be oiIed daily. Pour five to six drops of air tool

oil into the air inlet located in the toot body.

• Keep air filter clean. A dirty filter will reduce the air pressure to the tool

causing a reduction in power and efficlanay.

The air supply system must be able

to provide air press#re of 60 to 100 pounds per square inch at tool.

AI; hoses and pipes in the air supply system must be clean and free of

moisture and foreign particles.

Do not mount swivel connector in air

supply line.

• The air pressure should be property regulated.

Different workplace materials and

fastener lengths will require different

operating pressure.

• Be sure al! connections in air supply system are sealed to prevent air loss.

Neverconnecta femsie quick-

connect coupling to the-reel side of air line connection. A male, free-flow

coupling should be connected to the tool side of air line connection.

WARNING: The female coupling pro- vides a sea_preventing toss oi corm

pressed air from compressor tank when disconnected fn3m male coupling. If con-

nected to tool side of air supply, the female coupling could seal a compresssd air charge in the tool which could _s-

charge ifthe trigger is actuated.

NAILING OPERATION

Retsr to Figures 2 & 3, pages 4 and 6. WARNING; Do not operate tool with-

out fasteners or damage to too[ may result. Never point the tool at yourself or others.

Position and place the fastener

where it must be applied in the

same manner as using a regular hammer.

Slide the driver on to the fastener so

that the magnet in the glide bushing

(Key No. 20) contants the fastener

head.

• Hold body firmly with palm on the palm rest and fingers on the finger

rest. If necessary, use both hands to

hold driver steady. Gently push driver againstfastener

head to activate. The driver wil! auto° maritally stop when the na_ is driven

completely.

• To change guide bushings: Use wrench {Key No. 29) to }oossn

guide sleeve (Key No. 22). Remove

standard nail guide bushing (Key

No. 20) from guide sleeve, insert

desired guide bushing into guide sleeve, and then thread guide sleeve onto toot and secure in position

using wrench.

NOTE:

Must remove sleeve (Key No. 2!) prior to removing or installing stan-

dard nail guide bushing.

Must remove plug (Key No.24-)prior to installing finish nail guide bushing

(Key No. 27).

Do net remove spring and spring

washers (Key Nos. 17 and 18). They

are used with aE guide bushings.

OPERATING PRESSURE

Use only enough air pressure to per-

form the operation. Air pressure in

excess of that which is required will

make the operation inefficient and may cause premature wear or dam- age to the tool.

Determine minimum air pressure

required by driving some test fasten- ers into the work;piece.Generally,

short fasteners and soft woods

require less air pressure. Longer fas- teners and hardwoods require more

air pressure. Set air pressure so that test fasteners are driven down flush

with the work surface. Fasteners dri- ven too deep may damage workpiece.
