WARNING!
Keep your fingers away from the trigger (4) if you
are not nailing to prevent accidental triggering.
Never hold your face, your hands or feet close to the
shooting head during operation.
Do not fire nails at other nails and do not hold the
tool at too flat an angle. The nails can bounce off
and hurt someone.
Never use a defective tool or one that is not
functioning normally.
Do not use the tool as a hammer.
Remove all remaining nails and the battery pack (9)
from the tool, if:
- you are carrying out maintenance and inspection
work,
- you are checking the proper function of the trigger
safety lock (2) and trigger (4),
- you are clearing a jam,
- the tool is not in use,
- you are leaving the working area,
- you are taking the tool to a different location,
- you are handing the tool to another person.
8.1 Inserting nails with "fully sequential
triggering" or with "contact triggering"
Press the button (19) to switch the operating
modes.
Working with "fully sequential triggering"
operating mode (single shot)
To avoid double shooting or accidental
triggering caused by kickback: Pull the trigger
fast and hard (4).
1. Set the "fully sequential triggering" operating
mode by pressing the button (19). See chapter
7.2.
2. Press the machine with the trigger safety lock (2)
against the workpiece.
3. Next, pull the trigger (4) to fire the nail.
4. Remove the finger from the trigger (4).
5. Lift the machine completely off the wood
surface.
Using the same procedure, shoot more nails.
Note: Step 2 and 3 should be carried out within 2
seconds. If more than 2 seconds pass, the tool is
not working properly. If this happens, start again
from step 2.
Working with "contact release" (continuous
operation) operating mode
To avoid double shooting or accidental
triggering caused by kickback: Do not press
the tool against the wood with excessive force.
Detach the tool from the wood when kickback starts
after nailing.
Contact triggering can be done according to two
different procedures (a, b), depending on your
application.
a) To fire several nails:
1. Set the "contact triggering" operating mode by
pressing the button (19). See chapter 7.2.
2. Keep the trigger (4) pulled while the tool is not
touching the workpiece.
3. Press the trigger safety lock (2) against the wood
to fire the nail.
4. If the trigger (4) is held, a nail is fired every time
the trigger safety lock (2) is pressed against the
wood. Move the tool with "bouncing" movements
along the workpiece. A nail is fired each time the
trigger safety lock (2) is pressed in.
5. Once the desired number of nails has been fired,
remove your finger from the trigger (4).
Note: Step 2 and 3 should be carried out within 2
seconds. If more than 2 seconds pass, the tool is
not working properly. If this happens, start again
from step 2.
WARNING! Keep your fingers away from the
trigger (4), except when nailing, as serious
injury can occur if the trigger safety lock (2)
accidentally comes into contact with you or other
persons in the working area.
WARNING! Keep hands and body away from
the firing area. The tool may kickback from
firing a nail and another nail may come loose,
causing injury.
b) To fire a single nail:
1. Press the safety trigger lock (2) against the
wood.
2. Pull the trigger (4) to fire the nail.
3. Remove your finger from the trigger (4) and
remove the tool from the workpiece.
8.2 After nailing
1. Remove the battery pack (9) from the tool.
2. Remove all nails from the tool.
CAUTION! Pay attention not to knock the tip of
the trigger safety lock (2) against the wood if
the trigger safety lock cannot be pushed upwards.
8.3 Adjusting the nailing depth
To ensure that all nails penetrate to the same depth,
make sure that the tool is always held firmly against
the workpiece. If the nail penetration is too deep or
too shallow, adjust the nailing depth in the following
sequence.
