(Continued)
Disconnect air
supply and release
tension from the pusher before
attempting to clear jams because
fasteners can be ejected from the front
of the tool. Personal injury may occur.
AIR SOURCE
a. Never connect to an air source that
is capable of exceeding 200 psi.
Over pressurizing the tool is able
to result in bursting, abnormal
operation, breakage of the tool or
serious injury to persons. Use only
clean, dry, regulated compressed air
at the rated pressure or within the
rated pressure range as marked on
the tool. Always verify prior to using
the tool that the air source has been
adjusted to the rated air pressure or
within the rated air-pressure range.
b. Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide,
combustible gases or any bottled
gas as an air source for the tool.
Such gases are capable of explosion
and serious injury to persons.
Do not
use any
type of reactive gases,
including, but not limited
to, oxygen and combustible
gases, as a power source. Use filtered,
lubricated, regulated compressed air
only. Use of a reactive gas instead of
compressed air may cause the tool
to explode which will cause death or
serious personal injury.

pressure-regulated
compressed air source to limit
the air pressure supplied to
the tool. The regulated pressure must
not exceed 100 psi. If the regulator
fails, the pressure delivered to the
tool must not exceed 200 psi. The tool
could explode which will cause death or
serious personal injury.

LUBRICATION
This tool requires lubrication before
using the tool for the first time and
before each use. If an inline oiler is
used, manual lubrication through the
air inlet is not required on a daily basis.

Proper lubrication is the owner's
responsibility. Failure to lubricate the
tool properly will dramatically shorten
the life of the tool and void your
warranty.

to add lubricant.
2. Turn the tool so the air
inlet is facing up. Place
4-5 drops of 30 W non-
detergent oil into air inlet.
Do not use detergent
oils, oil additives, or air- tool oils.
Air tool oils contain solvents which
will damage the tool's internal
components.
