INTRODUCTION Foreword We are proud to offer the Grizzly Model H6145 28º Clipped Head Framing Nailer. This model is part of a growing Grizzly family of fine pneumatic tools. When used according to the guidelines set forth in this manual, you can expect years of troublefree, enjoyable operation and proof of Grizzly’s commitment to customer satisfaction. The Model H6145 is designed to toenail into corners.
SET UP Unpacking Inventory Your Model H6145 left our warehouse in a carefully packed box. If you discover the nailer is damaged after you have signed for delivery, please immediately call Customer Service at (570) 546-9663 for advice. After you remove the nailer case from the box you should find the following. Save the containers and all packing materials for possible inspection by the carrier or its agent. Otherwise, filing a freight claim can be difficult. Model H6145 Inventory (Figure 1) A. B. C. D.
Compressed Air System The Model H6145 is designed to be operated at 70-120 PSI using clean, dry, regulated, compressed air. DO NOT exceed the maximum operating pressure for your model. Before using your new nailer, regulate the air pressure on your air compressor to the minimum PSI for your model. An in-line filter/lubricator/regulator unit, depicted in Figure 2, can be installed and should be located as close to the nailer as possible.
Safety Yoke A safety yoke mechanism (bump fire) on the nose of the nailer acts as a secondary safety device. When the trigger is pressed, the nailer will not fire until the safety yoke mechanism is depressed. Before you use your nailer for the first time, check the safety yoke mechanism to ensure proper function. To do this: 1. DISCONNECT NAILER FROM THE AIR SUPPLY! 2. Make sure the magazine is empty and contains no nails. 3.
OPERATIONS Loading When replacing nails in your Model H6145, follow these guidelines: Diameter: 7⁄64"-1⁄8" Length: 2"-31⁄2" Capacity: 100 Strip Angle: 28° NOTICE: A number of manufacturers' nails may fit the H6145. However, for best performance, we recommend you use Grizzly nail Models G2421-G2430. 1. DISCONNECT NAILER FROM THE AIR SUPPLY! 2. Gripping the nailer firmly, pull the magazine pusher back and engage the catch lever, as shown in Figure 3. Figure 4. Loading nails into magazine. 4.
3. Pull the trigger and depress the safety yoke mechanism on your workpiece. 4. Before pulling the trigger, make sure your free hand and other body parts are positioned out of the way of a potential path of a nail in case of deflection. Deflection is caused when grain irregularities, knots or foreign objects inside the wood cause the nail to change its path, resulting in the nail puncturing the surface of the workpiece as shown in Figure 5.
Single/Bump Fire Mode Clearing Jammed Nails The nailer is designed to fire one nail at a time, or one after another, using the safety yoke mechanism. 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 operate your nailer in single fire mode: To clear a jammed nail from the magazine: 1. Depress the safety yoke mechanism against the workpiece. 1. DISCONNECT NAILER FROM THE AIR SUPPLY! 2.
Replacing Pistons/ORings 5. The top of the piston should now be visible inside the cylinder, which is housed in the head of the nailer. 6. Open the magazine. If you use your nailer day in and day out, repair pistons are cheap insurance against wasted down time and lost profits, in the event that a piston or piston shaft becomes worn out. 7. Watch the discharge area and push the top of the piston with your finger. You will see the piston shaft slide down the discharge area. 8.
CLEANING & LUBRICATION Cleaning Lubricating Use a good solvent to clean the nose assembly of the nailer. Always be sure that the nailer is dry before using it again. Special oil has been included with your new Grizzly nailer to help maintain its useful life. Place two to six drops of oil in the nailer air inlet (as shown in Figure 7) before every use, or after 2 hours of continuous use. Do not allow dust, chips, sand, etc.
