WARNING: The tool may fire when it is first connected
to the air source. Always connect the tool to the air
source before loading fasteners to prevent injury from
unintended cycling. Always make sure the tool's
magazine is empty at the beginning of each work
session, before connecting to an air source.
WARNING: Use only those fasteners recommended
for use with this tool. Fasteners not identified 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.
WARNING: Keep the tool pointed away from yourself
and others when loading fasteners. Failure to do so
could result in possible serious personal injury.
WARNING: Never load fasteners with the workpiece
contact or trigger activated. Doing so could result in
possible serious personal injury.

Clearing jams

Occasionally, a fastener may become jammed in the firing
mechanism of the tool, making the tool inoperable. To
remove a jammed fastener, follow the steps below:
Disconnect the tool from air source.
Open the feeder cover and magazine cover.
Remove fasteners from the tool.
Remove jammed fastener, using pliers or a screwdriver if
required.
Reconnect the tool to the air source.
Reload the tool with fasteners.
Close the magazine cover. Close the feeder cover
securely.
WARNING: Make sure there is no fastener in magazine
before clearing a jam.
WARNING: Disconnect the tool from the air source
whenever clearing a jam After disconnecting the tool
from the air compressor there should still be enough
air pressure to fire the tool After the air hose is
disconnected always fire the tool into scrap wood

Setting the air pressure

The amount of air pressure required depends on the size
of the fasteners 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 fastener 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.

Depth adjustment

The driving depth of the fasteners are adjustable. To adjust
the depth, use the red drive depth adjustment wheel (M) on
the tool.
Disconnect the tool from air source.
Turn the depth wheel left or right to change the driving
depth.
Reconnect the tool to the air source.
Drive a test nail after each adjustment until the desired
depth is set.

C : 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 drive a test fastener. Never exceed 115 psi.
