English
The depth that a fastener is driven is controlled by the
pressure of the air supply. The amount of air pressure required
will vary depending on the length of the fastener and the
material being fastened. Experiment with the air pressure
setting to determine the lowest setting that will consistently
perform the job at hand.
Non‑Mar Tip (Fig. G, J)
WARNING: Disconnect tool from air supply before
removing or re‑installing no‑mar pad.
The no‑mar pad
9
is provided to reduce marring of the
work surface. The no‑mar pad can be removed, and stored
on the bracket, to provide increased depth‑of‑drive for
toe‑nailing applications.
When not in use the hex wrench supplied can be snapped
into the storage bracket as shown.
Clearing a Jammed Nail (Fig. A, B, H)
WARNING: Disconnect the tool from the air supply
and remove fasteners from magazine before making
adjustments or personal injury may result.
If a nail becomes jammed in the nosepiece, keep the tool
pointed away from you and follow these instructions to clear:
1. Disconnect air supply from tool.
2. Push magazine release

and nosepiece
4. Remove the jammed fastener.
5. Examine the feed track and clear any damaged pins or
pin fragments.
6. Replace nosepiece and tighten bolts securely.
7. Reattach air supply.
8. Reload the tool (see Loading Fasteners).
nOTE: Should nails continue to jam frequently in nosepiece,
have tool serviced by an authorized service center.
Cold Weather Operation
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and remove air supply remove
the battery pack 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. Turn pressure up to operating level (not to exceed
120 p.s.i.g.) and use tool as normal.
7. Always drain the compressor tanks at least once a daily.
Hot Weather Operation
Tool should operate normally. However, keep tool out
of direct sunlight as excessive heat can deteriorate
bumpers, o‑rings and other rubber parts resulting in
increased maintenance.

Cleaning
WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with
clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize the risk
of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye
protection when performing this procedure.
WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh
chemicals for cleaning the non‑metallic parts of the
tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic materials
used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with
water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the
tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
Accessories
WARNING: Since accessories, other than those
offered by PORTER‑CABLE, have not been tested with
this product, use of such accessories with this tool
could be hazardous. To reduce the risk of injury, only
PORTER‑CABLE recommended accessories should be
used with this product.
How
Open petcocks or
other drain valves on
compressor tanks. Allow
any accumulated water to
drain from hoses.
Blow clean with
compressor air. The use of
oils, lubricants periodically
or solvents is not
recommended as they
tend to attract debris.

fasteners using the
appropriate hex wrench
or screwdriver.
