GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
Important safety instructions. Save these instructions pertaining to a
risk of injury or death.
WARNING
When using tools, basic precautions should always be followed, including
the following:
GENERAL
•To reduce the risk of injury, read all instructions before using the tool.
WORK AREA
Keep the work area clean and well lighted. Cluttered
benches and dark areas increase the risk of injury.
Do not operate the tool in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of fl ammable liquids, gases, or dust. The tool is able to create sparks
resulting in the ignition of the dust or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating the tool. Distractions are able to result in
the loss of control of the tool.
Know what is behind your workpiece. A fastener
could travel through the workpiece and out the other side, striking a bystander and causing serious injury.
DANGER
Avoid performing operations where the fastener may contact hidden
wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed
metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator, resulting in serious injury or death. Contact a qualifi ed electrician to ensure a safe work environment exists.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating the tool. Do not use the tool while tired or under the infl uence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the tool increases the risk of injury to persons.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry .
Contain long hair. Keep hair , clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair increases the risk of injury to persons as a result of being caught in moving parts.
Avoid unintentional starting. Remove fi nger from the trigger when not driving fasteners. Be sure the
trigger is not pulled before connecting to the air supply. Do not carry the tool with your fi nger on the trigger or connect the tool to the air supply with the trigger pulled.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. A dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes and a hard hat used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
The operator and other people in the work area must wear eye protection in accordance with ANSI
Z87.1. Eye protection does not fi t all operators in the same way. Make sure the eye protection chosen has side shields or provides protection from fl ying debris both from the front and sides. The employer is responsible for enforcing the use of eye protection by the operator and other people in the work area. When required, wear head protection in accordance with ANSI Z89.1.
Always wear ear protectors when using the tool for extended periods. Prolonged exposure to high
intensity noise is able to cause hearing loss.
Do not carry an air hose or a tool connected to an air hose when climbing ladders, rigging or scaffolding.
Do not attach an air hose or tool connected to an air hose to your body when working at elevated heights. Attach the hose to the structure to reduce
the risk of loss of balance and injury if the hose shifts.
•Always assume that the tool contains fasten-
ers. Careless handling of the tool can result in
unexpected fi ring of fasteners and personal injury.
•Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone
nearby. Unexpected triggering will discharge the
fastener causing an injury.
Do not nail on top of another nail. This can cause
the nail to be defl ected and hit someone, or cause the tool to react and result in a risk of injury to persons.
TOOL USE AND CARE
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding
the work by hand or against the body is unstable and is able to lead to loss of control.
Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for the
application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which the tool is designed.
Do not use the tool if the trigger does not turn the tool on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
the trigger is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the tool from the air source, then empty the magazine before making adjustments, doing tool maintenance, clearing jams, touching the workpiece contact or tool is outside your supervision or control. Verify the tool is empty and
there is no residual pressure in the tool prior to per­forming these actions. Such precautionary measures reduce the risk of injury to persons.
•Disconnect the tool from the power source when
the fastener jams in the tool. While removing
a jammed fastener, the tool may be accidentally activated if it is plugged in.
•Use caution while removing a jammed fastener. The mechanism may be under compression and the fastener may be forcefully discharged while attempting to free a jammed condition.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. A tool is dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
Maintain the tool with care. A properly maintained tool
reduces the risk of injury. If the tool has been dropped, received a sharp blow, been run over , etc., perform the "Required Daily Testing" before further use.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that af­fects the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool
serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools. There is an increased risk of the tool bursting if the tool is damaged.
Use only those fasteners specifi cally recommend- ed. Fasteners not identi ed for use with this tool by the
tool manufacturer are able to result in a risk of injury to persons or tool damage when used in this tool. See the "Specifi cations" section for fastener requirements.
•Do not use this tool for fastening electrical ca­bles. It is not designed for electric cable installation
and may damage the insulation of electric cables thereby causing electric shock or fi re hazards.
Use only accessories that are identifi ed by the manufacturer for the specifi c tool model. Use of an
accessory not intended for use with the specifi c tool model, increases the risk of injury to persons.
Do not attempt to modify tool or defeat safety measures. Serious injury could occur.
SERVICE
a) Tool service must be performed only by qualifi ed repair personnel.
b) The wrench provided is for tightening screws
during "Required Daily Testing".
c) Use only identical replacement parts recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
Use only the air tool lubricants supplied with the tool or specifi ed by the manufacturer. Do not use
other lubricants; they will damage the tool. See "Ac­cessories" for a list of recommended air tool lubricants.
AIR SOURCE
DANGER
Do not use oxygen, combustible gases or bottled gases as a power
source for this tool. The tool will explode and cause
death or serious injury.
•Never connect to an air source that is capable of
exceeding 200 psi. Over pressurizing the tool may
result in bursting, abnormal operation, breakage of the tool or serious injury to persons. Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air at the rated pressure or within the rated pressure range as marked on the tool. Prior to using the tool, always verify that the air source has been adjusted to the rated air pressure or within the rated air-pressure range. Air compressors should comply with ANSI B19.3.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR NAILERS
Use air supply hoses with a minimum working pressure rating of 200 psi.
Use pressure regulators to limit the air pressure supplied to the tool. Set the regulators to no more than 120 psi.
Install only hose couplings that will allow all pres­sure to be removed from tool when disconnected from the source. If the wrong tting is installed,
pressure may remain in the tool after disconnection, allowing it to drive a fastener, possibly causing injury.
Prior to each use, check workpiece contact and trigger for correct operation. Do not disassemble or
clamp parts of the workpiece contact, trigger, or driv­ing mechanism. This will cause unexpected actuation, resulting in serious injury.
Never point the discharge area of the tool at any body parts or at other people. Always assume the
tool is loaded and capable of driving a fastener.
•Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed
rmly against the workpiece. If the tool is not in contact with the workpiece, the fastener may be defl ected away from your target.
Do not engage in horseplay. The discharged fasten-
ers are projectiles capable of causing serious injury.
When using the tool, ensure the workpiece contact is securely placed on the workpiece. Hold the tool
rmly and be prepared for the recoil.
Do not remove, tamper with, or otherwise cause the tool operating controls to become inoperable.
This will cause unexpected actuation, resulting in serious injury.
Do not operate a tool if any portion of the tool oper­ating controls is inoperable, disconnected, altered, or not working properly. This will cause unexpected
actuation, resulting in serious injury.
Always keep hands and body away from discharge area of the tool. Never attempt to clear a jammed
workpiece contact by grasping the discharge area of the tool. Fasteners discharged from tool can cause serious injury if they contact hands or body.
Do not drive fasteners close to the edge of the workpiece. Fasteners can slip off corners and edges
or penetrate through thin material, making them pro­jectiles capable of causing serious injury.
Use the tool only for the intended purpose. Do not abuse the tool. Do not use as a hammer, stamp or en-
grave information onto parts, drop or impact the tool or otherwise apply excess force to the tool in use. Do not mount the tool to stands or modify it for stationary use.
Do not carry tool by the air hose. Only carry the tool
by the handle with your fi nger off of the trigger.
Do not use this tool without the safety warning label in place. If the label is damaged or missing, contact
MILWAUKEE for a free replacement.

Connecting the Air Supply
DANGER
Do not use oxygen, combustible
gases or bottled gases as a power source for this tool. The tool will explode and cause death or serious injury.
WARNING
Always use a coupling that dis-
charges all the compressed air in the tool at the time the fi tting or hose coupling is disconnected. Using a coupling that does not discharge the compressed air could cause unin­tended operation and serious injury.
Use only clean, dry compressed air with a maximum pressure of 200 psi. Before connecting the tool to the air supply, check the air compressor regulator gauge to be sure it is functioning properly, with a range be­tween 70-120 psi. Air pressure higher than 120 psi could cause injury and property damage. The correct pressure is the lowest pressure that will do the job. To connect the air supply:
1. Remove the plastic plug from the quick connector.
2. Lubricate the quick connector with 2-3 drops air tool
lubricant.
3. Snap the air hose onto the quick connector.
4. Check for air leakage. NOTE: Use only a 3/8" NPT quick connector . To improve the seal between the connector and the tool, and to help protect against oxidation, apply a PTFE tape or paste to the connector threads before insertion.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury to your-
self and others, test the tool before beginning work each day according to the "Re­quired Daily Testing" section.
Do not use the tool unless you thoroughly under­stand the actuation operation selected.
Disconnect the air supply from the tool and remove fastener strips before leaving the work
area, moving the tool to another location, or handing the tool to another person. Failure to do so could result in serious injury.
Do not carry an air hose or a tool connected to an air hose when climbing ladders, rigging or scaffolding. Do not attach an air hose or tool connected to an air hose to your body when working at elevated heights. Attach the hose to the structure to reduce
the risk of loss of balance
and injury if the hose shifts.
Single Sequential Actuation Operation
1. Grip the handle fi rmly.
2. Position the nose of the tool on the work surface.
3. Push the tool against the work surface, compress­ing the workpiece contact.
4. Pull the trigger to drive the fastener. The tool will recoil away from the workpiece as the fastener is driven.
5. Remove your fi nger from the trigger and remove the tool from the workpiece.
NOTE: If the tool is not removed from the work-
piece, another fastener may be driven if the trigger is pulled again.
Contact Actuation Operation
1. Grip the handle fi rmly.
2. Pull and hold the trigger.
3. Push the tool against the work surface, compress­ing the workpiece contact to drive the fastener. The tool will recoil away from the workpiece as the fastener is driven.
NOTE: Contact Actuation will also work by first compressing the workpiece contact, then pulling the trigger.
WARNING
NEVER wedge or hold back the
workpiece contact mechanism dur­ing operation of the tool. Never attempt to clear a jammed workpiece contact by grasping the discharge area of the tool. Doing so could result in serious injury.
To avoid serious injury , do not attempt to prevent the recoil by holding the tool too fi rmly against the work. Keep face and body away from the tool. During normal use, the tool will recoil immediately after driving a fastener. This is a normal function of the tool. Restriction to the recoil can result in a second fastener being driven when the tool is in Contact Actuation mode. Grip the handle fi rmly, let the tool do the work, and do not place a second hand on top of the tool or near exhaust.
Setting the Air Pressure and Depth of Drive
The amount of air pressure required will depend on the size of the fastener and the workpiece material.
WARNING
Know what is behind your work-
piece. A fastener could travel through the workpiece and out the other side, striking a bystander and causing serious injury. Lower the air pressure and/or depth of drive to prevent the fastener from being pushed all the way through the workpiece.
1. Lay the tool on its side and point the nose of the
tool away from yourself and others.
2. Disconnect the air supply from the tool and remove
fastener strip.
3. Set the depth of drive adjustment to the middle of
its range.
4. Reload fastener strip according to "Installing Fas-
tener Strips".
Set to middle of range
5. Begin testing the depth of drive by driving a test fastener into the same type of workpiece material used for the actual job using an air pressure of 90­95 psi.
6. Raise or lower the air pressure to fi nd the lowest setting that will drive the fastener consistently. Do not exceed 120 psi.
NOTE: It may be possible to achieve the desired
depth with air pressure adjustments alone. If fi ner adjustments are needed, use the depth of drive adjustment.
7. To fi ne-tune the depth of drive, disconnect the air supply and lay the tool on its side and point the nose of the tool away from yourself and others. Remove fastener strip. Turn the depth selector left or right to increase or decrease the driving depth.
8. Reload fastener strip according to "Installing Fas­tener Strips".
9. Drive a test fastener and repeat step 7 and 8 until desired depth is reached.
REQUIRED DAILY TESTING
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury to your-
self and others, test the tool before beginning work each day or if the tool is dropped, received a sharp blow, been run over, etc. Com­plete the following checklist IN ORDER. If the tool does not work as it should, contact a MILW AUKEE service facility immediately.
Always point tool away from yourself and others.
1. Disconnect the air supply from the tool and remove
fastener coil.
2. Check all screws, bolts, nuts, and pins on the tool.
Any loose fasteners must be tightened.
3. Press the workpiece contact against a workpiece.
It must move smoothly.
4. With the workpiece contact pressed against the
workpiece, pull the trigger. It must move smoothly .
5. Connect the air supply (at 70 psi) to the tool. DO
NOT load a fastener coil.
6. Select the Single Sequential Actuation Operation.
Air must not leak from the tool.
Without pulling the trigger, press the workpiece
contact against a workpiece. The tool must not operate.
Holding the workpiece contact away from the
workpiece, pull and hold the trigger for 5 seconds. The tool must not operate.
Continue to pull and hold the trigger and push the
workpiece contact against a workpiece. The tool must not operate.
Without pulling the trigger, press the workpiece
contact against a workpiece. Pull the trigger. The tool must operate.
Release the trigger. The driver must move up.
7. Select the Contact Actuation Operation. Holding the workpiece contact away from the work-
piece, pull the trigger. The tool must not operate.
Continue to pull and hold the trigger and push the
workpiece contact against a workpiece. The tool must operate.
8. If all previous tests work properly, set the tool for your work. Select the operation and load fastener coil.
9. Set the depth of drive according to the "Setting the Air Pressure and Depth of Drive" section.
10. If all tests operate properly, the tool is ready for
use. Repeat these tests before use each day or if the tool is dropped, received a sharp blow, been run over, jammed, etc.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury , use only
identical replacement parts recom­mended by the manufacturer. Tool service must be performed only by qualifi ed repair personnel. Always wear safety goggles or glasses with side shields when servicing tools. Disconnect tool from air supply before servicing.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from tool vents. Keep tool handles clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool, since certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and other parts. Some of these include gaso­line, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner, chlo­rinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household detergents containing ammonia. Never use fl ammable or combustible solvents around tools.
Lubrication
Frequent, but not excessive, lubrication is required for best performance. Oil added through the air line connection will lubricate the internal parts. Do not use detergent oil, WD-40, transmission fl uid, motor oil, or other lubricants not specifi cally designated as air tool lubricant. These lubricants will cause accelerated wear to the seals, o-rings and bumpers in the tool, resulting in poor tool performance and frequent maintenance.
Cold Weather Operation
For cold weather operation, near and below freezing, the moisture in the air line may freeze and prevent tool operation. Use an air tool lubricant or permanent antifreeze as a cold weather lubricant in the air line. Do not store tools in a below-freezing environment. Ice or frost could form on the tools' operating valves and mechanisms, causing tool failure.
Air Supply-Pressure and Volume
Air volume is as important as air pressure. The air vol­ume supplied to the tool may be inadequate because of undersized fi ttings and hoses, or from the effects of dirt and water in the system. Restricted air fl ow will prevent the tool from receiving an adequate volume of air, even though the pressure reading is high. The results will be slow operation or reduced driving power. Before evaluating tool problems for these symptoms, trace the air supply from the tool to the supply source for restrictive connectors, low points containing water and anything else that would prevent full volume fl ow of air to the tool.
