Tool Operation - Bostitch MCN150 Manual De Operación Y De Mantenimiento

TOOL OPERATION

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 connecting to air supply, 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. Eye protection
equipment must conform to the requirements of the American National Standards Institute,
ANSI Z87.1 and provide both frontal and side protection. NOTE: Non-side shielded
spectacles and face shields alone do not provide adequate protection.
BEFORE HANDLING OR OPERATING THIS TOOL:
I. READ AND UNDERSTAND THE WARNINGS CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL.
II. REFER TO "TOOL SPECIFICATIONS" IN THIS MANUAL TO IDENTIFY THE
OPERATING SYSTEM ON YOUR TOOL.
There is only one available operation mode on this BOSTITCH pneumatic tool. It is Sequential operation.
OPERATION
BOSTITCH offers only one mode of operation with this tool: Sequential Triggering.
SEQUENTIAL TRIGGERING
The Sequential Triggering system gets its name from the "sequence" required to drive a fastener. To drive a
fastener, the operator must first place the tip of the nail into the metal connectors preformed hole. Then hold
the moveable nose (the "trip") FULLY against the work surface, then pull the trigger. To drive a second nail the
operator must lift the tool from the work surface, release the trigger and then repeat the above sequence.
1. Sequential Triggering: offers a positive safety advantage since it will not accidentally drive a fastener
if the tool is bumped against any surface or anybody while the operator is holding the tools with the trigger
pulled.
2. Sequential Triggering: allows "place nailing" without the possibility of driving a second, unwanted
fastener on recoil.
The operator must not hold the trigger pulled except during fastening operation, as
serious injury could result if the trip accidentally contacted someone or something,
causing the tool to cycle.
Keep hands and body away from the discharge area of the tool.
Never use rafter hook to hang tool from body, clothing or belt.
NOTE: Although this is not the only pneumatic tool offered by BOSTITCH that operates sequentially,
it's operation is unique from all other BOSTITCH tools. The moveable nose, which acts as the contact
trip, is in the "depressed" position at rest to allow visibility of the nail points used for positive
placement. When the tip of the nail is placed in the preformed metal connector hole and the trigger is
pulled, the moveable nose moves out from the tool to detect the work surface. If the moveable nose
does not detect the work surface close to the nose of the tool, the tool will not actuate.
