After a strip of brads is inserted into the rear channel of the magazine, pull the pusher back keeping the push button down until the pusher is positioned behind the strip. Release then the pusher, which
gently will position the strip into the tool nose.
3) CLEARING JAMS
Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before attempting to clear a jammed fastener.
Extract the jammed fastener using a
pliers or screwdriver, taking care to prevent damage to tool components. Use a spare driver blade to tap the tool driver blade back up if the nail is jammed in the tool
nose.
Do not use excessive force to free a jammed fastener. Disassemble the tool to gain access to the area of the jam, and carefully work the jammed fastener free.
NOTE: Some tool models may have design modifications that permit quick release of jammed fasteners. Before using hand tools to clear jams on these tools, first attempt to release the fastener using the
features built into these tools.

E) AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTION
ACCESSORIES: Air fitting at the tool inlet must be a male free-flow quick disconnect type that allows air in the tool to be vented out freely when the air supply hose is disconnected from the
tool.
HOSES: The air supply hose to the tool must have a minimum inside diameter of 1/4” (6.3 mm), on hoses up to 15 feet (5 m). Where longer hose runs are necessary, the inside diameter of the
hose must be increased to provide adequate airflow to the tool. Use 5/16” (8 mm) inside diameters for lengths up to 25 feet (8 m). 3/8” (9.5 mm) inside diameter for lengths up to 50 feet (16 m).
Always consider the pressure losses resulting from using an excessively long hose.
SUPPLY: Clean, regulated, lubricated, compressed air. This requires a compressor with an air filter, an oilier (lubricator), and a pressure regulator to control air pressure being delivered to
the tool. Make sure that the minimum air pressure delivered by the compressor is adequate to drive the fasteners being used, since tank pressure will steadily decrease until the low pressure
switch on the compressor is activated.
F) MAINTENANCE
- Do not fire the tool while empty. Firing an empty tool places extra stress on tool components, and may lead to premature failure.
- Wipe tool clean daily and inspect for wear. Use non-flammable cleaning solution only if necessary. Do not soak. CAUTION: such solutions may damage O-rings and other tool parts.
- Drain the moisture from the air filter of the compressor filter - regulator - lubricator assembly periodically. Allowing water to accumulate can result in moisture build up in tool, causing corrosion and
reduced power.
- Use only pneumatic tool lubricating oil for tool lubrication. Other types of oils may froth and have a negative effect on tool performance. Adjust the lubrication to provide a light mist of oil (2-3 drops per 4
hours).
- Contact the Manufacturer, or your local distributor for replacement parts and service. Using unauthorized parts or service can result in voiding of warranty and damage to other tool components. The use
of improper parts may also create a hazard, and result in injury to the tool operator or bystanders.
- Cover air inlet when storing tool for long periods, and protect tool from exposure to extreme temperature and moisture. Exposure to temperature extremes can cause condensation inside the tool and
result in corrosion, or may affect elastic capabilities of some components.
