SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Read and understand this manual and all the safety instructions before operating this coil
oofing nailer. If you have any questions, please contact our authorized service centres or
r
retailers for help.
• Never allow the use of flammable gases as a power source for the coil roofing nailer. Use
filtered, lubricated and regulated compressed air only.
• Never use gasoline or other flammable liquids to clean this coil roofing nailer. Vapors in the coil
roofing nailer will ignite by a spark and cause the coil roofing nailer to explode.
• Do not exceed the maximum permissible operating pressure of this coil roofing nailer (120
PSIG).
• Disconnect the coil roofing nailer from its air supply before clearing jams, servicing, adjusting
and while the coil roofing nailer is not in use.
• Do not keep the trigger pulled on contact safety trip mechanism when carrying or holding the
coil roofing nailer. Never carry the coil roofing nailer by the air hose or pull on the air hose to
move the coil roofing nailer.
• At the workplace, always wear protective equipment such as Z87 safety glasses, hearing and
head protection.
• Do not use a check valve or any other fitting which allows air to remain in the coil roofing nailer.
• Do not place your hand or any part of your body in the nail discharge area of the coil roofing
nailer when connecting or disconnecting from the air supply.
• Never point any operational nail driving tool at yourself or at any other person.

LUBRICATION
AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS
LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
• Your coil roofing nailer needs to be lubicated before and after the first time you use it.
• Disconnect the air supply from the coil roofing nailer before lubricating.
• Turn the coil roofing nailer so that the inlet is facing up and put
or oil without detergent into the air inlet. Never use detergent oil or additives. Operate the nailer briefly
after adding oil.
• Wipe off excessive oil at the exhaust. Excessive oil will damage O-rings of the coil roofing nailer. If a
in-line oiler is used, manual lubrication through the air inlet is not required on a daily basis.

• Many air tool users find it convenient to use an oiler to help provide oil circulation through the tool and
it increases the efficiency and useful life of the tool. Check oil level in the oiler daily.
• Many air tool users find it convenient to use a filter to remove moisture and impurities which can rust
or wear internal parts of the tool. A filter also increases the efficiency and useful life of the tool. The
filter must be checked on a daily basis and, if necessary

placed on the workpiece.
• The contact safety trip mechanism is then depressed against the workpiece and the trigger is pulled to
drive the nail.
• The trigger is released after each nail is driven.
• Move the coil roofing nailer to the next location and repeat the above procedure.
VERIFICATION
• Disconnect the air supply from the air inlet.
• Empty all nails from the magazine.
• Make sure the trigger and the contact safety trip mechanism moves up and down without sticking.
• Connect the air supply to the nailer air inlet.
• Depress the contact safety trip mechanism against the workpiece without pulling the trigger. The coil
roofing nailer must not cycle.

LOADING NAILER & CLEARING JAMS
LOADING NAILER MAGAZINE
• Disconnect the air hose from the coil roofing nailer air inlet.
• Pull down latch and swing open the magazine cover.
• The tool must be set for the length of the nail to be used. Nails will not feed smoothly if the magazine
is not correctly adjusted. The magazine contains an adjustable nail platform called an adjuster plate
on which the nail coil rests. The adjuster plate height can be adjusted up or down by turning the
adjuster nut above it. Adjust the adjuster plate height to suit the nail length you are about to load.
• Place the coil of nails over the magazine post. Uncoil enough nails to reach the feed pawl. Place the
first nail in front of the front tooth on the feed pawl in the driver channel. The nail heads must be in the
slot in the nose.
• Swing the latch door and magazine cover closed. Check to make sure that the latch pin engages when
released and that the magazine cover is locked behind the latch.
CLEARING JAMS
Disconnect the coil roofing nailer from the air compressor before adjusting, clearing jams,
servicing, relocating and during non-operation.
• Disconnect the air hose from the coil roofing nailer air inlet.
• Pull down latch and swing open the feeder cover, then open the magazine cover
• Pull nails away from the nose.
