Disconnect Air Hose and release any built-up air pressure. Never service the
Nailer, clear jams, or disassemble with the air hose attached. Always release any
built-up air even after disconnecting hose. Disconnect the Nailer when not in use.
Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Check that keys and adjusting wrenches
are removed from the tool or machine work surface before attaching to an air
source.
Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the trigger is in the Off position when not
in use and before plugging in. Do not carry any tool with your finger on the trigger,
whether it is attached to an air source or not. Do not point the tool towards yourself
or anyone whether it contains fasteners or not.
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate any
tool when you are tired.
Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts; any broken
parts or mounting fixtures; and any other condition that may affect proper operation.
Any part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified
technician. Do not use the tool if the trigger does not operate properly.

Replacement parts and accessories. This product is to be repaired and serviced
only by a qualified technician. When this product is serviced, only identical replacement parts should be used. Use of any other parts will void the warranty. Only use
accessories intended for use with this tool. Approved accessories are available
from Harbor Freight Tools.
Do not operate tool if under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning
labels if taking prescription medicine to determine if your judgement or reflexes are
impaired while taking drugs. If there is any doubt, do not operate the tool.
Use proper size and type extension cord. If an extension cord is required for the
air compressor, it must be of the proper size and type to supply the correct current
to the compressor without heating up. Otherwise, the extension cord could melt
and catch fire, or cause electrical damage to the tool. Check your air compressor’s
manual for the appropriate size cord. It is also possible that the use of an extension cord may cause your circuit breaker to trip or your panel fuse to break. If this
happens, either use the compressor without an extension cord or find a larger
amperage circuit to use.
Maintenance. The maintenance outlined in the maintenance section should be
performed regularly. For your safety, this product should be serviced or repaired
regularly only by a qualified technician.

25.
Compressed air only. Never use combustible gas as a power source.
Do not load nails with the trigger or safety depressed. Uninten-
tional firing may occur. Do not load nails when the air hose is con-
nected to the tool. Always assume the tool contains fasteners.
Disconnect air supply before loading the Nailer. Before reloading (or making
any adjustments to) the Nailer, make sure the compressed air is disconnected.
Fire fasteners into an appropriate work surface only. Do not attempt to fire
fasteners into surfaces too hard to penetrate. Do not drive fasteners on top of other
fasteners, or at too steep an angle. Fasteners can ricochet causing personal injury.
Never fire the Nailer into the air, or point it toward yourself or another person. Always
wear ANSI approved safety goggles during use, maintenance, and reloading.
Do not fire fasteners too close to the edge of a workpiece. They may split the
workpiece and fly free, causing personal injury.
Take caution, as some woods contain preservatives such as copper chromium
arsenate (CCA) which can be toxic. When stapling or nailing these materials extra
care should be taken to avoid inhalation and minimize skin contact.

Attach the Nailer to the air supply at the Air Plug (83). Start your compressor and
check the pressure making sure it is set at the recommended 70-100 PSI and not
to go over the maximum 100 PSI.
To fire, place the nose of the Nailer on the workpiece. The Nailer should not fire if
the nose is not depressed. Once depressed, gently and briefly squeeze the Trigger
(73) once. Do not fire repeatedly. Nails could bounce off of one another, damag-
ing the workpiece or causing PERSONAL INJURY.
Caution: When the Trigger (73) is depressed, the Roofing Nailer will fire if the Nose
of the tool comes in contact with anything.

Do not press the Nose of the Roofing Nailer against the work surface with extra force.
Allow the tool to do the work. Always allow the tool to recoil off the workpiece.
5.
6.
7.
Caution: While working on roofs, tar and dirt may build up on the Nose of the Roofing Nailer. This can prevent normal operation. Remove buildup with a nonflammable
solvent. NEVER use gasoline or other flammable solvents. Do not immerse the
Roofing Nailer in an approved solvent beyond the height of the nail heads, to avoid
getting the solvent into the drive cylinder of the tool. Make sure to dry off the Roofing Nailer before use. Any oil film left after cleanup will accelerate tar buildup.
When finished using the Roofing Nailer, always disconnect the tool from its compressed air supply. Empty the Nail Canister (90) completely of nails. Attempt to
fire the Roofing Nailer into a piece of scrap wood to ensure it is disconnected and
is incapable of firing any nails. Always leave the Nail Canister open during this
procedure. The Canister is spring loaded and may cause parts or a nail to fly
out of the Roofing Nailer.
Make sure to store the Roofing Nailer in its accessory Carrying Case and in a clean,
dry, safe location out of reach of children.

2.
3.
4.
Inspect the Nailer frequently and lubricate periodically with Pneumatic tool oil, then
wipe dry. Do not use detergent oil or additives as these lubricants will cause accelerated wear to the internal seals.
Inspect the air supply filter, if present, before each use and clean or replace as
necessary. Dirt and water in the air supply filter are major causes of pneumatic tool
wear. Use a filter/oiler for better performance and longer tool life. The filter must
have adequate flow capacity for the specific application.
Store the unit in a clean and dry location.
All maintenance, service, or repairs not listed in this manual are only to be
