THE COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY WARNING: COMPRESSED AIR CAN BE DANGEROUS. ENSURE THAT YOU ARE THOROUGHLY FAMILIAR WITH SAFETY PROCEDURES RELATING TO THE USE OF COMPRESSORS AND COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLIES. A filtered, lubricated and regulated air supply will be required as shown in the layout below. Ensure the pressure available is within the range of 70-100 psi. Higher pressure or contaminated air will shorten the tool’s life because of increased wear, and could be a safety hazard.
LOADING THE COIL NAILER WARNING: ENSURE THE COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY IS DISCONNECTED BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO LOAD THE COIL NAILER. DO NOT HOLD THE TRIGGER WHILE LOADING THE NAILER. The machine is loaded with nails as follows: 1. Press the latch (1) open and pull the magazine cover (2) back. 2. Knowing the nail size to be used, raise and twist the adjuster 90 degrees for the chosen nail size as required. 3.
5. Offer the end of the strip of nails into the gun, taking care that the nail heads lay flat in the groove (5) closest to the machine body and that the first nail in the strip is resting in the drive pawl (6). 6. Close the magazine cover and close the latch. • This will not be possible if the nails are not positioned correctly. The machine is now ready to use. 6 5 OPERATION 1.

4. Before starting work, test the nailer on a piece of scrap wood to check that the driving depth is correct. If the nails are being driven too far or not deep enough into the timber, adjust the air pressure adjuster located on the side of the nose section accordingly. (Remember; whatever pressure adjustment is to be carried out on the tool is dependant upon the pressure received from the airline). Pressure adjuster 5.

VIBRATION EMISSIONS HAND-ARM VIBRATION Employers are advised to refer to the HSE publication “Guide for Employers”. All hand held power tools vibrate to some extent, and this vibration is transmitted to the operator via the handle, or hand used to steady the tool. Vibration from about 2 to 1500 herz is potentially damaging and is most hazardous in the range from about 5 to 20 herz.
You will note that a third value is given in the specification - the highest measured reading in a single plane. This is the maximum level of vibration measured during testing in one of the axes, and this should also be taken into account when making a risk assessment. ‘a’ values in excess of 2.5 m/s2 are considered hazardous when used for prolonged periods. A tool with a vibration value of 2.8 m/s2 may be used for up to 8 hours (cumulative) per day, whereas a tool with a value of 11.
