ings and instructions for future re fere nce.
Save all warn-
1. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES OR GOGGLES
Danger to the eyes always exists due to the possibility of
dust being blown up by the exhausted air or of a fastener flying up due to the improper handling of the tool. For these
reasons, safety glasses or goggles shall always be worn
when operating the tool.
The employer and/or user must ensure that proper eye pr otection is worn. Eye protection equipment must conform to
the requirements of the American National Standards Institute, ANSI Z87.1 (Council Directive 89/686/EE C of 21 DEC.
1989) and provide both frontal and side protection.
The employer is responsible to enforce the use of eye protection equipment by the tool operator and all other perso nnel in the work area.
NOTE: Non-side shielded spectacles and face shields
alone do not provide adequate protection.
2. EAR PROTECTION MAY BE REQUIRED IN SOME ENVIRONMENTS
As the working condition may include exposure to high noise
levels which can lead to hearing damage, the employer and
user should ensure that any necessary hearing protection is
provided and used by the operator and others in the work area.

3. KEEP HANDS AND BODY AWAY FROM THE DISCHARGE OUTLET
When loading and using th e tool, never place a han d or any
part of body in fastener discharge area of the tool. It is very
dangerous to hit the hands or body by mistake.
4. DO NOT USE ON SCAFFOLDINGS AND LADDERS
Do not use on scaffoldings and ladders wit h fastener driving
tools equipped with contact actuat ion or continuo us contact
actuation.
2. SAFETY WARNING
Thinner
Gasoline
3. DO NOT OPERATE THE TOOL NEAR A FLAMMABLE
SUBSTANCE
Never operate the tool near a flammable substance (e.g.,
thinner, gasoline, etc.). V olatile fume s from the se substances could be drawn into the compressor and com pressed together with the air and this could result in an explosion.
4. NEVER USE THE TOOL IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE
Sparks from the tool may ignite atmospheric gases, dust or
other combustible materials.
5. DO NOT USE A WRONG FITTINGS
The connector on the tool must not hold pressure when air
supply is disconnected. If a wrong fitting is used, the tool
can remain charged with air after disconnecting and thus
will be able to drive a fastener even after the air line is disconnected, possibly causing injury.
1. DO NOT USE ANY POWER SOURCE EXCEPT AN AIR
COMPRESSOR
The tool is designed to operate on compressed air. Do not
operate the tool on any other highpressure gas, combustible gases (e.g., oxygen, acetylene, etc.) since there is the
danger of an explosion. For this reason, absolutely do not
use anything other than an air compressor to operate the
tool.
2. O PERATE WITHIN THE PROPER AIR PRESSURE
RANGE
The tool is designed to opera te within an ai r pressure range
of 70 to 100 p.s.i. (5 to 7 bar).
The pressure should be adjusted t o the type of the wo rk being fastened. The tool shal l never be operated wh en the operating pressure exceeds 120 p.s.i. (8.3 bar).
Never connect the tool to air pressure which potentially exceeds 200 p.s.i. (13.8 bar) as the tool can burst.
6. DISCONNECT THE AIR SUPPLY AND EMPTY THE
MAGAZINE WHEN THE TOOL IS NOT IN USE
Always disconnect the air supply from the tool and empty
the magazine when operation has been completed or suspended, when unattend ed, moving to a diffe rent work are a,
adjusting, disassembling, or repairing the tool, and when
clearing a jammed fastener.
7. INSPECT SCREW TIGHTNESS
Loose or improperly installed screws or bolts cause accidents and tool damage when the tool is put into operation.
Inspect to confirm that all screws and bolts are tight and
properly installed prior to operating the tool.
4
8. DO NOT TOUCH THE TRIGGER UNLESS YOU INTEND
TO DRIVE A FASTENER
Whenever the air supply is connected to the tool, never
touch the trigger unless you intend to drive a fastener into
the work. It is dangerous to walk around carrying the tool
with the trigger pulled, and this and similar actions should
be avoided.
9. NEVER POINT THE DISCHARGE OUTLET TOWARD
YOURSELF AND OTHER PERSONNEL
If the discharge outlet is pointed toward peopl e, serious accidents may be caused when misfiring. Be sure the discharge outlet is not pointed toward peopl e when connecting
and disconnecting the hose, loadin g and u nloadi ng the fasteners or similar operations.
10. USE SPECIFIED FASTENERS
(SEE PAGE 7)
The use of fasteners other than specified fasteners will
cause the tool malfunction. Be sure to use only specified
fasteners when operating the tool.
13. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS ON TOP OF OTHER FASTENERS
Driving fasteners on the top of other fasteners may cause
deflection fasteners which could cause injury.
14. REMOVING THE F ASTENERS AFTER COMPLETING
OPERATION
If fasteners are left in the magazine after the completion of
operation, there is the danger of a serious accident occurring prior to the resu mptio n of o peration, should the tool be
handled carelessly, or when connecting the air fitting. For
this reason, always remove all fasteners remaining in the
magazine after completion of the operation.
15. CHECK OPERATION OF THE CONTACT TRIP MECHANISM FREQUENTLY INCASE OF USING A CONTACT
TRIP TYPETOOL
Do not use the tool if the trip is not working correctly as accidental driving of a fastener may result. Do not interfere
with the proper operation of the contact trip mechanism.
16. WHEN USING THE TOOL OUTSIDE OR ELEVATED
PLACE
When fastening roofs or similar slanted surface, start fastening at the lower part and gradually work your way up.
Fastening backward is dangerous as you may lose your foot
place.
Secure the hose at a point close to the area you are going
to drive fasteners. Accidents may be caused due to the
hose being pulled inadvertently or getting caught.
11. PLACE THE DISCHARGE OUTLET ON THE WORK SURFACE PROPERLY
Failure to place the discharge outle t of the nose in a proper
manner can result in a fastener flying up and is extremely
dangerous.
12. DO NOT DRIVE FASTENERS CLOSE TO THE EDGE
AND CORNER OF THE WORK AND THIN MATERIAL
The workpiece is likely to split and the fa stener could fly free
and hit someone.
17. NEVER USE THE TOOL IF ANY PORTION OF THE TOOL
CONTROLS (e.g., TRIGGER, CONTACT ARM) IS INOPERABLE, DISCONNECTED, ALTERED OR NOT WOKING PROPERLY
18. NEVER ACTUATE THE TOOL INTO FREE SPACE
This will avoid any hazard caused by free flying fasteners
and excessive strain of the tool.
19. ALWAYS ASSUME THAT THE TOOL CONTAINS FASTENERS
20. RESPECT THE TOOL AS A WORKING IMPLEMENT
21. NO HORSEPLAY
22. NEVER LOAD TH E TOOL WITH FASTENERS WHEN
ANY ONE OF THE OPERATING CONTROLS (e.g., TRIGGER, CONTACT ARM) IS ACTIVATED

a power source for the tool.
3-PIECE AIRSET (Air filter, Regulator, Oiler):
Refer to TOOL SPECIFICATIONS for setting the correct operating pressure for the tool.
NOTE:
A filter will help to get the best performance and minimum wear
from the tool because dirt and water in the air supply are major
causes of wear in the tool.
Frequent, but not excessive, lubrication is required for the best
performance. Oil added thru the air li ne conne ction wi ll lubr icate
the internal parts.
2. OPERATION
Wear safety glasses or goggles. Danger to the eyes always exists due to the possibility of dust being blown up by the exhausted
air or of a fastener flying up due to the improper handling of the
tool. For these reasons, safety glasses or goggles shall always
be worn when operating the tool.
The employer and/or user must ensure that pr oper eye protecti on
is worn. Eye protection equipment must conform to the requirements of Council Directive 89/686/EEC of 21 DEC. 1989 (the
American National Standards Insti tute, ANSI Z87 .1) and provide
both frontal and side protection.
The employer is responsible to enforce the u se of eye protecti on
equipment by the t ool operator and all other per sonnel in the wor k

DRIVING FASTENERS
NOTE :
This tool is shipped with SEQUENTIAL TRIP selected.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP
The Sequential Trip requires the operator hold the tool against
the work before pulling the trigger.
This makes accurate fastener placement easier, for instance on
framing, toe nailing and crating applications.
The Sequential Trip allows exact fastener location without the possibility of driving a se c on d fastener on recoil, as described under
"Contact Trip".
The Sequential Trip Tool has a positive safely advantage because it will not accidentally d ri ve a fasten er if the to ol is cont acted against the work or anything else-w hile the oper ator is ho lding
the trigger pulled.
Switching SEQUENTIAL TRIP to CONTACT TRIP
WARNING
ALWAYS-disconnect air supply before switching the triggering method.

CONTACT TRIP
The common operating procedure on "Contact Trip" tools is for
the operator to contact the work to actuate the trip mechanism
while keeping the trigger pull ed, thus drivi ng a fastener each time
the work is contacted.
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 actua ted
(finger still holding trigger pulled) an unwanted second fastener
will be driven.
1 If an adjustment is required, disconnect air supply.
2 Refer to the figure for direction to turn the dial.

2 DO NOT FIRE THE NAILER WHEN IT IS EMPTY
3 USE A 3-PIECE AIRSET
Failure to use a 3-piece airset allows the moisture and dirt
inside compressor to pass into the tool directly. This causes
rust and wear, and results in a po or operatin g performance.
The hose length between airset and tool should be no longer than 5 m since a longer length results in a reductio n in air
pressure.
4 USE RECOMMENDED OIL
The velocite or turbine oil should be used to lubricate the
tool. Upon completion of operations, place 2 or 3 drops of
oil into the air plug inlet with the jet oiler. (Recommended Oil
: ISO VG32)
