SAFETY For Your Own Safety Read Instruction Manual Before Operating This Equipment The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level of importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident prevention measures.
Safety Instructions For Pneumatic Tools 10. USE PROPER AIR HOSE for the tool. Make sure your air hose is in good condition and is long enough to reach your work without stretching. 11. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear a protective hair covering to contain long hair. 12. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use a face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty.

INTRODUCTION Commentary We are proud to offer the Grizzly Model G6050 Round Head Framing Nailer. This model is part of a growing Grizzly family of fine power tools. When used according to the guidelines set forth in this manual, you can expect years of trouble-free, enjoyable operation and proof of Grizzly’s commitment to customer satisfaction.
Compressed Air System Safety Yoke Mechanism The Model G6050 is designed to be operated at 80-120 psi. Do not exceed the maximum operating pressure! A safety yoke mechanism (bump fire) on the nose of the nailer acts as a safety device. When the trigger is pressed, the nailer will not fire until the safety yoke mechanism is depressed. Before you use your new nailer, regulate the air pressure on your air compressor to barely over the minimum psi for your nailer. Increase air pressure only if needed.
OPERATION Loading Nailer Single/Bump Fire Mode To load your nailer: The Model G6050 is equipped with a single/bump fire trigger. 1. 2. 3. Disconnect the air supply from the nailer! Pull the magazine pusher all the way back until it locks in place. Place a stick of nails into the magazine as shown in Figure 1. Make sure the pointed ends of the nails are facing down. To select single or bump fire operation: 1. 2. 3. 4. Figure 1. Loading the nailer. 3. 4.
Operating Nailer If you have not read the safety instructions in this manual, do not operate the nailer. Periodically, place one drop of the included oil into the quick connect fitting where the nailer connects to the air supply. After oiling, wipe off any excess oil near the nailer exhaust to avoid dust build-up. To operate your nailer: 1. 2. 3. Connect the air supply to the quick connect fitting. Test the loaded nailer for proper penetration.
Clearing Jammed Nails The most frequent situation with any type of nailer is a nail jam. A jammed nail must be cleared before using the nailer again. The two places where a nail can get jammed are the magazine and the discharge area. To clear a jammed nail from the discharge area with the Model G6050: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Disconnect the nailer from the air supply! Pull the magazine pusher all the way back until it locks in place. Remove all nails from the magazine. Locate the nail inside of the nailer nose.
Oiling Nailer Cleaning Nailer The Model G6050 is considered an oil-less model. This means it features a teflon piston ring that does not require oil to operate. However, periodic applications of oil will extend the useful life of the piston assembly. Use a good solvent to clean the nose assembly of the nailer. Always be sure that the nailer is dry before using it again. Do not allow dust, chips, sand, etc.
Replacing Pistons/O-Rings If you use your nailer day in and day out, Grizzly offers repair pistons as cheap insurance against wasted down time and lost profits in the event that a piston or piston shaft becomes worn out. To replace a piston: Figure 7. Removing nailer exhaust cap. With a long flathead screwdriver or similarly shaped tool, push the piston shaft back inside the nailer until you can grip the piston head and remove it from the cylinder.
