MANUAL. Failure to follow warnings could result in
DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY.
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
include 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
instructions. 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 cleaning.
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.

as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire, or serious injury.
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked
to comply with ANSI Z87.1 along with hearing and
head protection. Failure to do so could result in objects
being thrown into your eyes and other possible serious
injuries.
Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the
operation 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.
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.
Always carry the tool by the handle. Never carry the
tool by the air hose.
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 clamp or tape the trigger or workpiece contact
in an actuated position.
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.
Do not carry the tool from place to place holding the
trigger. Accidental discharge could result.
Always handle the tool with care:
• Respect the tool as a working implement.
• Never engage in horseplay.
• Never pull the trigger unless nose is directed toward
the work.
• Keep others a safe distance from the tool while tool is in
operation as accidental actuation may occur, possibly
causing injury.
Choice of triggering method is important. Check
manual for triggering options.
Pneumatic tools are designed for single-hand use. Do
not hold the tool by the front of the magazine. Do not put
hands, head, or other parts of your body near the bottom
of the magazine where the nail exits the tool, as serious
personal injury could result.
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
positioned on the workpiece. Positioning the work
contact element only partially on 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 or
fastener 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.
3 - English
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
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 and let the tool do the work. 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.

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.
SETTING THE AIR PRESSURE
The amount of air pressure required will depend on the size
of the nail and the workpiece material.
Begin testing the depth of drive by driving a test nail into
the same type of workpiece material used for the actual job.
Drive a test nail with the air pressure set at 90-95 psi. Raise
or lower the air pressure to find the lowest setting that will
perform the job with consistent results.
It may be possible to achieve the desired depth with air
pressure adjustments alone. If finer adjustments are needed,
use the drive depth adjustment on the tool.
DRIVE DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
See Figure 9, page 13.
The driving depth of the nail may be adjusted. It is advisable
to test the depth on a scrap workpiece to determine the
required depth for the application.
To determine depth of drive, first adjust the air pressure and

MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
When servicing use only identical replacement parts. Use
of any other parts can create a hazard or cause product
damage.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1 along with hearing and head
protection. Failure to do so could result in objects being
thrown into your eyes and other possible serious injuries.
WARNING:
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 a 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.
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, petroleumbased products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which could 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 and
personal injury.
REQUIRED DAILY CHECKLIST
Disconnect the air supply from the tool and remove all
fasteners.
Check all screws, nuts, bolts, and pins on the tool. If
any of these are loose, they must be tightened with the
appropriate size wrench.
Press the workpiece contact against a workpiece to
ensure that it moves smoothly.
With the workpiece contact depressed, pull the trigger.
The trigger should move smoothly, without binding.
While the tool is not loaded, connect the appropriate air
supply (at 70 psi) to the tool.
Without pulling the trigger, press the workpiece contact
against a workpiece several times. The tool must not
operate. No air should leak from the tool.
With the workpiece contact not engaged on the
workpiece, point the tool down and away and pull the
trigger several times. Hold the trigger in this position for
a minimum of 5 seconds. The tool must not operate.
Press the workpiece contact firmly against the
workpiece. Pull the trigger. The tool must operate.
With the workpiece contact still depressed, release the
trigger. The driver must return to its up position.
If the tool successfully meets all the requirements in this
checklist, it is ready for use. Load the proper fasteners
for the desired application.
Set the depth of drive according to the Drive Depth
Adjustment section in this manual. Repeat this checklist
before using the tool each day, or if the tool is dropped
or damaged in any way.
