The air compressor must comply with the requirements
of EN60335-2-34.
Select a compressor that has ample pressure and air
output to assure cost-efficient operation. The graph
shows the relation between nailing frequency, applica-
ble pressure and compressor air output.
Thus, for example, if nailing takes place at a rate of
approximately 40 times per minute at a compression of
1.77 MPa (17.7 bar), a compressor with an air output
over 100 liters/minute is required.
Pressure regulators must be used to limit air pressure to
the rated pressure of the tool where air supply pressure
exceeds the tool's rated pressure. Failure to do so may
result in serious injury to tool operator or persons in the
vicinity.

Selecting air hose
CAUTION:
or a long or smaller diameter air hose in relation
to the nailing frequency may cause a decrease in
the driving capability of the tool.
► Fig.2
Use a high pressure resistant air hose.
Use an air hose as large and as short as possible to
assure continuous, efficient nailing operation.
Lubrication
► Fig.3: 1. Pneumatic tool oil
Oil the tool with pneumatic tool oil by placing two or
three drops into the air fitting. This should be done
before and after use.
For proper lubrication, the tool must be fired a couple of
times after pneumatic tool oil is introduced.

Adjusting depth of nailing
5
This toll has the adjuster of the nailing depth. To mod-
ulate the nailing depth, turn the adjuster to the proper
depth.
► Fig.4: 1. Adjuster
The adjustable range is 8.5 mm (11/32"). (One full turn
allows 1.25 mm (1/16") adjustment.)

CAUTION:

result in misfiring and personal injuries.
The hook is useful for hanging up the tool temporarily.
The hook can be turned while pushing the bottom to the
desired angle.
► Fig.6: 1. Hook
Furthermore, this hook can be installed on either side
of the tool.
To change the installation position, remove the bolt with
a hex wrench. Install the hook on another side and then
secure it firmly with the bolt.
