The Sears air nailer operates on compressed air at
pressures from 60 to 100 PSIG.
Never exceed maximum pressure.
Minimum air requirements for nailer: Average working
SCFM 40 at 90 PSI with a 3/8" air hose and 15 gallon
tank..

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Continued)
AIR SUPPLY LINE (Continued)
Clean dry air is essential to the operation of the Sears
nailer, Air operated tools require clean, dry, lubricated
compressed air to ensure top performance, tow main-
tenance and long life.
Dirt and abrasive materials present in all air lines will
damage tool O-rings, valves and cylinders,
Moisture wilt reduce tool performance and life if not
removed from compressed air,.
A _ter-regulator-lubricator system is required and
should be located as close to tool as possible (see
Figure 1), a distance of less than 15 feet is recom-
mended.
Keep air filter clean. A dirty filter will reduce the air
pressure tothe nailer causing a reduction in power and
efficiency.
The air supply system must be able to provide air
pressure of 60 to 100 pounds per square inch at tool..
The lubricator should be filled with a nomdetergent air
tool oil.
All hoses and pipes in the air supply system must be
clean and free of all moisture and foreign particles,.
Never connect a female quick-disconnect coupling
to the tool side of air system. A male, free-flow cou -
piing should be connected to the tool side of air
system° The female coupling provides a sea! prevent-
ing loss of compressed air frorn compressor tankwhen
disconnected from male coupling.. If connected to tool
side of air supply, the female coupling could seal a
compressed air charge in the naiter which could dis-
charge ifthe tool trigger is actuated,
The air pressure should be properly regulated_ Do not
mount swivel connector in air suppiy line.
Different workpiece materials and different nail lengths
will require different operating pressure..
Be sure all connections in air supply system are sealed
to prevent air Iosso
