SAFETY RULES FOR ALL TOOLS
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
!
Work Area
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
Keep by-standers, children, and visitors away
while using your tool. All children should be kept
away from the work area. Don’t let them handle
machines, tools or extension cords. Visitors can
be a distraction and are difcult to protect from
injury. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Personal Safety
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing & use
common sense. Keep hands and body away from
the path of any potential red fastener. Do not
operate any tool when you are tired, under the
inuence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating this tool
may result in serious injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry; they can be caught in moving parts.
Protective, non-electrically conductive gloves
and non-skid footwear are recommended when
working. Wear protective hair covering to contain

and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or against
your body is unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
Store idle equipment. Store equipment in a dry
area to inhibit rust. Equipment also should be in
a high location or locked up to keep out of reach
of children.
Don’t force the tool. It will do the job better and
more safely at the rate for which it was intended.
Use the right tool. Don’t force a small tool or
attachment to do the work of a larger industrial
tool. Don’t use a tool for a purpose for which it
was not intended
Extension cords. Observe warnings that
accompany air compressors concerning the use of
correct gauge and and concerning insulation for
outdoor use.
Service
Check for damaged parts. Before using this

driving fasteners into walls, oors, or wherever
“live” electrical wires may be encountered, try to
ascertain whether there is a danger of shock.
Ear protection. Wear ear protection when using
the tool for extended periods. Prolonged exposure
to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.
Safety glasses To prevent eye injuries, the tool
operator and all persons in the work area must
wear approved safety glasses conforming to ANSI
Z87.1 specications with permanently attached,
rigid side shields.
Use clean, dry, regulated, compressed air at 60
to 100 psi.
Do not connect tool to pressure which
potentially exceeds 200 psi.
Air hose. Only use hose that is rated for a
minimum working pressure of 150 psi or 150%
of the maximum system pressure, whichever is
greater.
Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible
gases or any other bottled gas as a power
source for this tool. Explosion and serious
personal injury could result.
Couplings. Connect tool to air supply hose with a
1/4” npt coupling that removes all pressure from
the tool when the coupling is disconnnected.
Be aware of air hoses and their connections.
Don’t trip over hoses. Make sure all connections
are tight.
When servicing 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. Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline,
carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may damage
plastic parts.
SAFETY RULES FOR AIR NAILERS & STAPLERS
Disconnect tool from air supply hose before
doing any disassembly, maintenance, clearing a
jammed fastener, leaving the work area, moving
the tool to another location, or handing the tool to
another person.
Never use a tool that is leaking air, has missing
or damaged parts, or requires repair. Make
sure all screws and caps are securely tightened.
Check for damaged parts. Never use a tool if
safety, trigger, or spring are inoperable, missing or
damaged. Do not alter or remove safety, trigger,
or springs. Make daily inspections for the free
movement of trigger and safety mechanism.
Replacement parts. When servicing, use
only identical replacement parts and fasteners
recommended by us.
Be sure the tool is disconnected from the air
supply before loading the fasteners. Take
care on re-connection: fasteners may be red
accidentally during connection. The fastener
driving mechanism may cycle when the tool is
connected to the air supply.
Assume the tool contains fasteners at all times.
Always keep it pointed away from yourself and
others. No horseplay. Respect the tool as having
lethal potential.
Do not load fasteners with trigger or safety
depressed. The tool may unintentionally re a
fastener.
Do not depress the trigger when not driving
fasteners. Never carry tool with nger on or
touching the trigger mechanism: tool may re an
unwanted fastener.

The warnings, cautions, and instructions detailed in this manual cannot cover all
possible conditions and situations that occur. It must be understood by the operator
that COMMON SENSE AND CAUTION ARE FACTORS that cannot be built into
this product, but MUST BE SUPPLIED BY THE OPERATOR.
Fire fasteners into work surface only and never
into materials too hard to penetrate
Grip tool rmly to maintain control while
allowing the tool to recoil away from the work
surface as the fastener is driven. If the safety is
allowed to recontact the work surface before the
trigger is released, an unwanted fastener will be
red.
Do not drive fasteners on top of other
fasteners, or with the tool at too steep an angle:
the fasteners can ricochet causing personal injury.
Do not drive fasteners too close to the edge
of the workpiece. The workpiece is likely to
split, allowing the fasteners to y free or ricochet
causing personal injury.

AIR SYSTEM
l The nailer/stapler is designed to operate on clean, dry, compressed air, regulated at
60-100 psi. The preferred system would include a lter, a pressure regulator with a
gauge, and an automatic oiler located downstream from the main air supply, as close to
the tool as possible (within 15 feet is ideal). Do not use bottled air or gases. Please see
gure below:
l All compressed air contains moisture and other contaminants that can harm the internal
components of the tool. An air line lter will remove most of these and signicantly
prolong the life of the tool. Ensure the in-line oiler has sufcient oil. If an in-line oiler is
not available, place 2 drops of oil into the tool’s air inlet at the beginning of each workday.
More than this will be expelled from the tool’s exhaust during ring.
l Air Fitting: The nailer/stapler should be equipped with a 1/4” NPT male plug to t a ‘quick
connector’ coupling. To prevent accidental cycling even though disconnected, the tool
must always be connected to the air supply in such a way that all air pressure in it is
released when the coupling is disconnected.

MAINTENANCE
DAILEY MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
!
l Disconnect tool from air supply before cleaning and inspection.
l Correct all problems before putting the tool back in service.
1. Wipe tool clean and inspect for wear or damage. Use non-amable cleaning solutions to
wipe exterior of tool only if necessary. Do Not Soak tool with cleaning solutions. Such
solutions can damage internal parts.
2. Inspect trigger and safety mechanism to assure system is complete and functional: no
loose or missing parts, no binding or sticking parts.
3. Keep all screws tight. Loose screws can cause personal injury or damage the tool.
4.
If the tool is used without an in-line oiler, place 2 drops of air tool oil into the
air inlet of the tool at the beginning of each workday and after about 1 hour of
continuous use. Frequent but not excessive lubrication is required for best performance.
Oil added through the airline connection will lubricate all internal parts. Use only air tool
oil. Do not use oil with detergents or other additives. These can cause damage through
accelerated wear to the seals in the tool.
5. Use a small amount of oil on all exterior moving parts and pivots.
6. Dirt and water in the air supply are major causes of pneumatic tool wear. See the section
on SETUP: AIR SYSTEM for more information.
