from magazine before leaving the area or passing the tool to another operator. Do not carry tool to another work area in which changing location involves the use of scaffoldings, stairs, ladders, and the like, with air supply connected. Do not make adjustments, remove magazine, perform maintenance or clear jammed fasteners while connected to the air supply. If the contact trip is

adjusted when the tool is connected to the air supply and nails are loaded, accidental discharge may occur. (Fig. G)

• Connect tool to air supply before loading fasteners, to prevent a fastener from being fired during connection. The

tool driving mechanism may cycle when tool is connected to the air supply. Do not load fasteners with trigger or contact trip

depressed, to prevent unintentional firing of a fastener.

• Do not remove, tamper with, or otherwise cause the tool, trigger, or

FIG. H

contact trip to become inoperable.

Do not tape or tie trigger or contact trip in the on position. Do not remove spring from contact trip. Make daily inspections for free movement of trigger and contact trip. Uncontrolled discharge could result.

• Inspect tool before use. Do not operate a tool if any portion of the tool,

FIG. I

trigger, or contact trip is inoperable,

disconnected, altered, or not working properly. Leaking air, damaged parts

or missing parts should be repaired or replaced before use. (Fig.H)

• Do not alter or modify the tool in any

way. (Fig. I)

• Always assume that the tool contains

FIG. J

fasteners.

• Do not point the tool at co-workers or yourself at any time. No horseplay!

Work safe! Respect the tool as a working

implement. (Fig. J)

• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. When

tool is not in use, it should be locked in a safe place, out of the reach of children.

• Remove finger from trigger when not driving fasteners. Never carry

FIG. K

tool with finger on trigger. Accidental discharge could result. Using the trigger lock-off will prevent accidental discharge.

• Do not overreach. Maintain proper footing and balance at all times. Loss of balance may cause cause personal injury. (Fig. K)

• Make sure hose is free of obstructions

FIG. L

or snags. Entangled or snarled hoses can cause loss of balance or footing.

• Use the tool only for its intended use. Do not discharge fasteners into open air, concrete, stone, extremely hard woods, knots or any material too hard for the fastener to penetrate. Do not use the body of the tool or top cap as a hammer. Discharged fasteners

FIG. M

may follow unexpected path and cause injury. (Fig. L)

• Always keep fingers clear of contact trip to prevent injury from inadvertent release of nails. (Fig. M)

• Refer to the Maintenance and Repairs sections for detailed information on the proper maintenance of the tool

• Always operate the tool in a clean, lighted area. Be sure the work surface

is clear of any debris and be careful not

to lose footing when working in elevated

environments such as rooftops.

• Do not drive fasteners near edge of material. The workpiece may split

causing the fastener to ricochet, injuring

you or a co-worker. Be aware that the nail

may follow the grain of the wood (shiner), causing it to protrude unexpectedly from

the side of the work material. Drive the

nail perpendicular to the grain to reduce risk of injury. (Fig. N)

• Do not drive nails onto the heads of other fasteners or with the tool at too steep an angle. Personal injury

from strong recoil, jammed fasteners, or

ricocheted nails may result. (Fig. O)

• Be aware of material thickness when using the nailer. A protruding nail may

cause injury.

• Be aware that when the tool is being utilized at pressures on the high end of its operating range, nails can be driven completely through thin or

very soft work material. Make sure

the pressure in the compressor is set so that nails are set into the material and not

pushed completely through. (Fig. P)

FIG. N

FIG. O

FIG. P

English

• Keep hands and body parts clear of immediate work area. Hold workpiece

with clamps when necessary to keep hands and body out of potential harm. Be sure the workpiece is properly secured before pressing the nailer against the material. The contact trip may cause the work material to shift unexpectedly.

English

(Fig.Q)

• Do not use tool in the presence of flammable dust, gases or fumes. The

tool may produce a spark that could ignite gases causing a fire. Driving a nail into another nail may also cause a spark. (Fig.R)

• Keep face and body parts away from back of the tool cap when working in restricted areas. Sudden recoil can

result in impact to the body, especially when nailing into hard or dense material. (Fig. S)

• Grip tool firmly to maintain control while allowing tool to recoil away from work surface as fastener is driven. In “Contact Actuation Mode” if

contact trip is allowed to recontact work surface before trigger is released an unwanted fastener will be fired.

• Choice of triggering method is important. Check the manual for triggering options.

FIG. Q

FIG. R

FIG. S

BUMP/CONTACT ACTION TRIGGER

FIG. T

• When using the contact action trigger, be careful of unin tentional double fires resulting from tool recoil. Unwanted fasteners may be

driven if the contact trip is allowed to accidentally re-contact the work surface. (Fig. T)

TO AVOID DOUBLE FIRES:

• Do not engage the tool against the work surface with a strong force.

• Allow the tool to recoil fully after each actuation.

• Use sequential action trigger.

• When “contact” actuating the nailer, always keep tool in control. Inaccurate placement of tool can result in misdirected

discharge of a fastener.

SEQUENTIAL ACTION TRIGGER

• When using the sequential action

FIG. U

trigger, do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed firmly against the workpiece.

• DEPTH ADJUSTMENT: To reduce risk of serious injury from accidental actuation when attempting to adjust depth, ALWAYS;

• Disconnect air supply

• Avoid contact with trigger during adjustments

• Do not drive nails blindly into walls, floors or other work areas. Fasteners driven into live electrical wires, plumbing, or other

types of obstructions can result in injury. (Fig.U)

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.

A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in

serious personal injury.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,

grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry

products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you

do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

WARNING: ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:

• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA/Z94.3),

• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,

• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

Preparing the Tool

WARNING: Read the section titled Important Safety Instructions

at the beginning of this manual. Always wear eye and ear protection when operating this tool. Keep the nailer pointed away from yourself and others. For safe operation, complete the following procedures and checks before each use of the nailer.

CAUTION: NEVER spray or in any other way apply lubricants or

cleaning solvents inside the tool. This can seriously affect the life and performance of the tool.

NOTE: These nailers are designed to be used without oil.

1. Before you use the nailer, be sure that the compressor tanks have been properly drained.

2. Wear proper eye, hearing and respiratory protection.

3. Remove all fasteners from the magazine.

4. Check for smooth and proper operation of contact trip and pusher assemblies. Do not use tool if either assembly is not functioning properly. NEVER use a tool that has the contact trip restrained in the up position.

5. Check air supply. Ensure that air pressure does not exceed recommended operating limits, refer to Tool Specifications.

6. Connect air hose.

7. Check for audible leaks around valves and gaskets. Never use a tool that leaks or has damaged parts.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, disconnect tool

from air supply before performing maintenance, clearing a jammed fastener, leaving work area, moving tool to another location or handing the tool to another person.

Mode Selection

WARNING: Always wear proper eye [ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA

Z94.3)] and hearing protection [ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)] when operating

this tool.

WARNING: Keep fingers AWAY from trigger when not driving

fasteners to avoid accidental firing. NEVER carry tool with finger on trigger. In contact mode tool will fire a fastener if safety is bumped while trigger is depressed.

Sequential Trip

Sequential trip requires the operator to hold the trigger against the work surface before pulling the trigger. This makes accurate fastener placement easier. The sequential trip allows exact fastener placement without the possibility of driving a second fastener on recoil, as described under Contact Trip. The sequential trip tool has a positive safety advantage because it will not accidentally drive a second fastener if the tool is contacted against the work surface or anything else while the operator is holding the trigger pulled.

Bump/Contact Action

The common operating procedure on contact trip tools is for the

operator to contact the work surface to actuate the trip mechanism while keeping the trigger pulled, thus driving a fastener each time the work is contacted. This will allow rapid fastener placement on many jobs. All pneumatic tools are subject to recoil when driving fasteners.

The tool may bounce, releasing the trip, and if unintentionally allowed

to recontact the work surface with the trigger still actuated (finger still holding the trigger pulled) an unwanted second fastener will be driven.

TO CHANGE OPERATING MODES (FIG. 1–3)

WARNING: Disconnect air line from tool and remove fasteners

from magazine before making adjustments or personal injury may result.

SEQUENTIAL TRIP ACTION

Use sequential action for intermittent nailing where very careful and accurate placement is desired.

To operate the nailer in sequential action

mode:

1. Rotate the trigger mode selector (B) clockwise to the sequential action position

, as shown in Figure 2.

2. Fully depress nosepiece against the work surface.

3. Pull trigger.

4. Release trigger.

5. Lift nosepiece off work surface.

6. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for next application.

WARNING: The contact trip needs to be depressed followed by a

trigger pull for each fastener followed by a release of both the contact trip and trigger after each fastener.

CONTACT TRIP ACTION

Bump/contact action is intended for rapid nailing on flat, stationary surfaces.

When using bump action, two methods are available: place actuation and bump actuation.

Rotate the trigger mode selector (B) counterclockwise to the contact action position

, as shown in Figure 3.

To operate the tool using the PLACE

ACTUATION method:

WARNING: A fastener will fire each time the

trigger is depressed as long as the contact trip remains depressed.

1. Depress the contact trip against the work surface.
