Operating instructions
TOOL OPERATION (Fig 1)
1) Position flooring as per flooring manufacturer's
specification.
2) Place tool on flooring holding the handle a shown (Fig.1)
with guide plate above the tongue and firmly against
the forward face of the flooring material.
3) Ensure that the plastic foot is firmly held against
top surface of the flooring. Holding the handle firmly
and using the rubber face of the hammer, swing the
hammer striking the top end of the plunger (Fig 1A).
This tool has two operation modes: ratcheting and
non-ratcheting. To change the drive mode:
1. Remove the retaining pin (Fig 2A) and then the second
pin. (Fig 3A)
2. Positioning the ratchet mechanism switch (Figs 2B & 3B):
• For ratcheting (multi-blow) operation, set the switch as
shown in Fig. 2B.
• For non-ratcheting (single-blow) operation, set the
switch as shown in Fig. 3B.
3. Replace the clevis pin and the cotter pin after
adjustment.
When the ratcheting mode is engaged, it allows for
multiple strikes on the plunger in case the fastener is not
fully driven. If the plunger does not fully return, the nail
has not been completely driven. When this happens, use
the rubber face of the mallet to strike the top end of the
metal plunger again. When the nail is completely driven,
the ratcheting mechanism will allow the plunger to return.
