Safety Guidelines
(Continued)
G Do not modify or alter the nailer or
any nailer parts. Do not use the nailer
if any shields or guards are removed
or altered. Do not use the nailer as a
hammer. Personal injury or tool
damage may occur.
G Avoid long extended periods of work
with the nailer. Stop using the nailer
if you feel pain in hands or arms.
G Always check
that the Work
Contact Element
(WCE) is
operating
properly. A nail
could
accidentally be
driven if the
WCE is not working properly.
Personal injury may occur (See
"Checking the Work Contact
Element" Section).
G Disconnect air supply and release
tension from the pusher before
attempting to clear jams because
fasteners can be ejected from the
front of the nailer. Personal injury
may occur.
G Avoid using the nailer when the
magazine is empty. Accelerated
wear on the nailer may occur.
G Clean and check all air supply hoses
and fittings before connecting the
nailer to an air supply. Replace any
damaged or worn hoses or fittings.
Tool performance or durability may
be reduced.
G Air compressors providing air to the
nailer should follow the
requirements established by the
American National Standards
Institute Standard B19.3-1991;
Safety Standard for Compressors for
Process Industries. Contact your air
compressor manufacturer for
information.

Operating The Nailer
Read this manual and understand
all safety warnings and instructions
before operating the nailer.
LUBRICATION
This nailer requires lubrication before
using the nailer for the first time and
before each use. If an inline oiler is
used, manual lubrication through the
air inlet is not required on a daily basis.
can become damaged by excessive
lubrication. Proper lubrication is the
owner's responsibil- ity. Failure to
lubricate the nailer properly will
dramatically shorten the life of the nailer
and void your warranty.
1. Disconnect
the air supply
from the
nailer to add
lubricant.
2. Turn the nailer
so the air inlet
is facing up.
Place 4-5 drops
of 30 W non-
detergent oil
into air inlet.
Do not use
detergent oils, oil additives, or air
tool oils. Air tool oils contain
solvents which will damage the
nailer's internal components.
3. After adding
oil, run nailer
briefly. Wipe
off any excess
oil from the cap
exhaust.
