Dirt and abrasive materials present in all air lines will damage tool O-rings, valves and cylinders. Moisture will reduce tool performance and life if not removed from compressed air. DESCRIPTION The Craftsman 18 Gauge Brad Nailer drives brads from ¾" to 13/8 " long. OUless design eliminates daily oiling and oil stains on workpiece. Die cast magnesium body with textured rubber grip minimizes operator fatigue. Large capacity, side loading magazine with positive, quick action latch makes loading easy.
NAILING OPERATION Depress latch and slide magazine cover open (see Figure 2). Refer to Figures 5, 6, 7 & 8 (pages 4 and 5). WARNING: Read and follow all safety rules and operating instructions in this manual and on warning label of tool before using this tool. Keep this manual with the tool. WARNING: Do not use this tool without safety warning label. If label is missing, damaged or unreadable, contact Sears to obtain a new label.
LOAD INDICATOR WARNING: All air power fastening tools recoil when operated. This recoil is caused by rapid driving of the fastener. Tool may bounce from recoil causing a second unwanted fastener to be driven. Reduce tool bounce by holding tool firmly in hand and pressing tool gently against workpiece. Let the tool do the work. This will allow recoil of tool to bounce tool away from workpiece preventing the driving of second fastener. The tool is equipped with a load indicator.

With the red push-button switch in the rapid-fire mode, perform the following procedures to test safety mechanism: • Leave trigger untouched while pushing contact trip into workpiece.
