There is a second container inside the Paslode Fuel Cell.
This inner container holds the fuel. T he space between
the container and the outer cylinder is filled with a gas,
called the propellant, which is under pressure.
To eject the fuel, propellant pressure squeezes the inner
fuel container much as you squeeze a tube of toothpaste.
This squeezing action ensures that all the fuel is used,
and that the Cordless Nailer can operate in any position.
fuel
However, over time the propellant pressure diminishes
to
until it is no longer able to squeeze the inner fuel
container. This is why a nailer using a fuel cartridge
beyond the "Best Use Before" date may not work consis-
tently or at all.
If you expose the empty or expired Paslode Fuel Cell to
extreme temperatures, the propellant gas will expand and
could cause the container to burst, releasing flammable
gases.
The fuel contains a small amount of oil to keep the tool
lubricated during use. It is not necessary to oil the tool
during normal operation. When cleaning the tool, use only
Paslode Cordless tool oil. Using oils not formulated for the
Paslode Cordless Tool, may cause loss of power and may
damage the internal parts of the tool's motor.
1.
Do not attempt to remove or reuse the
Paslode Fuel Cell.
2. Do not attempt to install the fuel cartridge cap on
other fuel cells. This may result in damage to the
tool and injury to the user and by standers!

1. Never attempt to refill the cartridge! Replace
with fresh fuel cartridge, and dispose of spent
cartridge properly.
2. When replacing fuel cartridge also clean or replace
air filter for optimum tool operation.
NOTE: Altitude Restriction
Paslode Cordless tools are powered by an internal
combustion engine and are effected by altitude. The
tool may lose power or not cycle consistantly at
elevations of 6000 feet or greater. For optimum perform-
ance use at 6000 feet or less.
