• Keep tool pointed away from yourself and others and connect tool to air supply.
• Tool actuation is full sequential actuation mode.
• With your finger off the trigger, place the safety yoke on the surface of the material the
nail will be driven into. Apply pressure pressing the safety yoke all the way down.
• Pull the trigger to shoot a nail into the material.
• The tool will not shoot again until the trigger is released and the safety yoke is removed
completely from the material being used.
• To fire the next nail, repeat the steps above.
• Tools shall be operated at the lowest pressure needed for the application. This will
reduce noise levels, part wear and energy use.
• Adjust the mini pressure which is necessary for the penetration of the nails.
• Then test, starting with the lowest pressure.
• The depth that the nail is driven can be adjusted using the depth adjustment next to
the nose of the tool.
1. To drive a nail shallow, turn the wheel (A) to right to the extent desired.
2. To drive a nail deep, turn the wheel to left to the extent desired.
3. Make sure that the trigger and safety yoke move freely up and down without binding
or sticking after each adjustment.
Clearing a Jammed Nail
• Should a nail jam occur, disconnect air supply from tool, keep the tool pointed away
from you and follow these instructions to clear.
1. Press down the door latch and swing the door.
2. Insert the rod into the nose to push the nail back up and into the guide body bore.
3. Remove the jammed nail from driver channel.
4. Extract the nail with pliers or, if the nail is loose, turn the tool upside-down and
shake it out.
This guide can be used to control shingle spacing. Loosen the two screws and slide
guide to desired shingle exposure, as shown.
Operation in cold weather:
• Do not store the tool in a cold weather environment in order to prevent frost or ice
from forming on the tool's operating valves and mechanisms. This could cause tool
failure.
• When operation tools at temperatures near and below freezing, the moisture in the air
line may freeze and prevent tool operation.
1. Reduce the air pressure to 5.5 bar or less.
2. Remove all nails from magazine.
3. Connect air and free-fire (blank-fire) the tool. Slow speed operation tends to warm
up the moving part.
Operation in hot weather:
• Keep tool out of direct sunlight as excessive heat can deteriorate bumpers, o-rings
and other rubber parts resulting in increased maintenance.
