SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Eye protection which conforms to ANSI specifications
and provides protection against flying particles both from the FRONT and SIDE should ALWAYS be worn by the operator and others in the work area when loading, operating or servicing this tool. Eye protection
is required to guard against flying fasteners and debris, which could cause severe eye injury.
The employer and/or user must ensure that proper
eye protection is worn. We recommend Wide Vision
Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses that provide protection against flying particles both from the front and side. Always use eye protection which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
Additional safety protection will be required in some
environments. For example, the working area may in-
clude exposure to noise level which can lead to hearing damage. The employer and user must ensure that any necessary hearing protection is provided and used by the operator and others in the work area. Some environments will require the use of head protection equipment. When required, the employer and user must ensure that head protection conforming to ANSI Z89.1-1997 is used.
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.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.

Keep fingers away from trigger when not driving fasten­ers to avoid accidental firing.
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. Always wear eye protection.
Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your
application. The correct tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it is designed.
Do not use tool if trigger does not actuate properly.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the trigger is dangerous and must be repaired.
Check operation of the workpiece contact mechanism
frequently. Do not use the tool if the workpiece contact
mechanism is not working correctly as accidental driving of a fastener may result. Do not interfere with the proper operation of the workpiece contact mechanism.
Store idle tools out of the reach of children and other
untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Follow maintenance instruc-
tions. Properly maintained tools are easier to control.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained tools.
Use only fasteners that are recommended for your
model.
Keep the tool and its handle dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when clean-
ing. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any strong solvents to clean your tool. Fol­lowing this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and deterioration of the enclosure plastic.
SERVICE
Tool service must be performed only by qualified
repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.

When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance instructions may create a risk of injury.

Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
Always we ar safety glasses with side sh iel ds.
Everyday glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of eye injury.
Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the op-
eration is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during
extended periods of operation. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
Make sure the hose is free of obstructions or snags.
Entangled or snarled hoses can cause loss of balance or footing and may become damaged.
Use the tool only for its intended use. Do not discharge
fasteners into open air.
Use the pneumatic tool only for the purpose for which
it was designed.
Do not use hardened nails in this tool. Use only the fasteners recommended for this tool. Use
of the wrong fasteners could result in poor fastener feed­ing, jammed fasteners, and nails leaving the tool at erratic angles. If fasteners are not feeding smoothly and properly, discontinue their use immediately. Jammed and improperly feeding fasteners could result in serious personal injury.
Never use this tool in a manner that could cause a fastener
to be directed toward anything other than the workpiece.
Do not use the tool as a hammer. Do not alter or modify this tool from the original design
or function without approval from the manufacturer.
Always be aware that misuse and improper handling
of this tool can cause injury to yourself and others.
Never leave a tool unattended with the air hose attached. Do not operate this tool if it does not contain a legible
warning label.
Do not continue to use a tool that leaks air or does
not function properly.
OPERATION
Always assume that the tool contains fasteners. Always handle the tool with care:
• Respect the tool as a working implement.
• Never engage in horseplay.
• Keep others a safe distance from the tool while tool is in operation as accidental actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.
Do not point the tool toward yourself or anyone
whether it contains fasteners or not.
Do not actuate the tool unless you intend to drive a
fastener into the workpiece.
Always ensure that the workpiece contact is fully posi-
tioned above the workpiece. Positioning the workpiece
contact only partially above the workpiece could cause the fastener to miss the workpiece completely and result in serious personal injury.
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, causing it to protrude un­expectedly from the side of the work material.
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 workpiece contact may cause the work material to shift unexpectedly.
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.
During normal use the tool will recoil immediately after
driving a fastener. This is a normal function of the tool.
Do not attempt to prevent the recoil by holding the nailer against the work. Restriction to the recoil can result in a
second fastener being driven from the nailer. Grip the handle firmly, let the tool do the work and do not place second hand on top of tool or near exhaust at any time. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury.
Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners or with
the tool at an overly steep angle as this may cause deflection of fasteners which could cause injury.
Do not drive fasteners close to the edge of the
workpiece as the wood may split, allowing the fastener to be deflected possibly causing injury.
AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS
Do not use oxygen, combustible gases or bottled
gases as a power source for this tool as tool will ex­plode, possibly causing injury or death.
Do not use with an air compressor which can po-
tentially exceed 200 psi as tool may burst, possibly causing injury.
The connector on the tool must not hold pressure
when air supply is disconnected. If an incorrect 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.
Always disconnect air supply:
• Before making adjustments
• When servicing the tool
• When clearing a jam
• When tool is not in use
• When moving to a different work area, as accidental actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.
LOADING TOOL
Do not load the tool with fasteners when any one of
the operating controls is activated. When loading tool: Never place a hand or any part of body in fastener
discharge area of tool.
Never point tool at anyone. Do not depress the workpiece contact as accidental
actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
When servicing use only identical RIDGID replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage.
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 or additives as these lubricants will cause accelerated wear to the seals and bumpers in the tool, resulting in poor tool performance and frequent tool maintenance.
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields during power tool operation or when blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
WARNING:
Disconnect the tool from the air supply before performing maintenance. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
For cold weather operation, near and below freezing, the moisture in the air line may freeze and prevent tool operation. We recommend the use of air tool lubricant or permanent antifreeze (ethylene glycol) as a cold weather lubricant.
CAUTION:
Do not store tools in a cold weather environment to prevent frost or ice formation on the tools’ operating valves and mechanisms that could cause tool failure.
NOTE: Some commercial air line drying liquids are harmful to “O” rings and seals. Do not use these low temperature air dryers without checking compatibility.
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 under­size fittings and hoses, or from the effects of dirt and water in the system. Restricted air flow 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 flow of air to the tool.
