Depth Adjustment (Fig. A, J)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and remove air supply before
making any adjustments or removing/installing
attachments or accessories. An accidental
actuation can cause injury.
The depth that the fastener is driven can be adjusted using
the depth adjustment wheel.
1. To drive the fastener shallower, rotate the depth
adjustment wheel
to the right.
7
2. To drive a fastener deeper, rotate the depth adjustment
wheel

Cold Weather Operation
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and remove air supply before
making any adjustments or removing/installing
attachments or accessories. An accidental
actuation can cause injury.
WARNING: Do not store tools in a cold weather
environment to prevent frost or ice formation on the
tools operating valves and mechanisms that could
cause tool failure.
WARNING: Some commercial air line drying
liquids are harmful to "O"‑rings and seals – do
not use these low temperature air dryers without
checking compatibility.
When operating tools at temperatures below freezing:
1. Make sure compressor tanks have been properly
drained prior to use.
2. Keep tool as warm as possible prior to use.
3. Make certain all fasteners have been removed
from magazine.
4. Lower air pressure to 80 p.s.i.g. or less.
5. Reconnect air and and load fasteners into magazine.
6. Actuate the tool 5 or 6 times into scrap lumber to
lubricate o-rings.
7. Turn pressure up to operating level (not to exceed
120 p.s.i.g.) and use tool as normal.
8. Always drain the compressor tanks at least once a daily.
In Addition to the Other Warnings
Contained in this Manual Observe the
Following for Safe Operation
•
Use the pneumatic tool only for the purpose for which
it was designed.
•
Never use this tool in a manner that could cause a
fastener to be directed toward the user or others in the
work area.
•
Do not use the tool as a hammer.
•
Always carry the tool by the handle. Never carry the tool
by the air hose.
•
Do not alter or modify this tool from the original design
or function.
•
Always be aware that misuse and improper handling of
this tool can cause injury to yourself and others.
•
Never clamp or tape the trigger or contact trip in an
actuated position.
•
Never leave a tool unattended with the air
hose attached.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and remove air supply before
making any adjustments or removing/installing
7
attachments or accessories. An accidental
actuation can cause injury.
When working on air tools, note the warnings in this manual
and use extra care evaluating problem tools.
WARNING: Pusher spring (constant force spring).
Caution must be used when working with the spring
assembly. The spring is wrapped around, but not
attached to, a roller. If the spring is extended beyond
its length, the end will come off the roller and the
spring will roll up with a snap, with a chance of
pinching your hand. Also the edges of the spring are
very thin and could cut. Care must also be taken to
insure no permanent kinks are put in the spring as this
will reduce the springs force.
Assembly Procedure For Seals
When repairing a tool, make sure the internal parts are
clean and lubricated. Coat each "O"-ring with lubrication
before assembling. Use a small amount of oil on all moving
surfaces and pivots. After reassembly add a few drops of Air
Tool Lubricant through the air line fitting before testing.
Air Supply-Pressure And Volume
Air volume is as important as air pressure. The air volume
supplied to the tool may be inadequate because of
undersize fittings and hoses, or from the effects of dirt and
water in the system.
Restricted air flow will prevent the tool from receiving an
adequate volume of air, even though the pressure reading
is high. The results will be slow operation, misfeeds or
reduced driving power.
Before evaluating tool problems for these symptoms,
trace the air supply from the tool to the supply source for
restrictive connectors, swivel fittings, low points containing
water and anything else that would prevent full volume
flow of air to the tool.
