User Manual

 Operating
If you have not read the safety instructions in this manual, do not operate the nailer/stapler.
Before you operate your nailer/stapler, place two to three drops of the included oil into the quick connect fitting where
the nailer/stapler connects to the air supply.
To operate your nailer/stapler:
1. Connect the air supply to the quick connect fitting.
2. To test for proper nail/staple penetration, hold the nailer/stapler perpendicular to the surface of a piece of
clean scrap wood that is thick enough for the length of nails/staples you have loaded.
3. 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/staple in case of deflection.
-Deflection is caused when grain irregularities, knots or foreign objects inside the wood cause the nail/staple
to change its path, resulting in the nail/staple puncturing the surface of the workpiece, as shown in Figure 5.
-Besides damaging your workpiece, deflection can cause injury if your free hand is securing the workpiece in the
location that the nail/staple deflects.
Figure 5. Example of nail deflection.
5. Pull the trigger.
— If the nail/staple drove into the wood far enough, continue with your intended operations.
— If the nail/staple either went too far or not far enough, then go to the Adjusting Depth sub-section on this page.
DANGER! Potential hazard that could result in serious injury or loss of life.
Disconnect the tool from the compressed air source before loading fasteners.
Do not point the tool towards the operator or other people while changing fasteners.
Do not hold the tool with the trigger depressed while changing the fasteners. Failure to comply will lead to serious
injury or loss of life.
WARNING! Potential hazard that could result in serious injury or loss of life.
CAUTION!
Potential hazard that may result in moderate injury or damage to equipment.
Operate the tool with the utmost care when connected with the air compressor.
Failure to comply may result in moderate injury or damage to equipment.
 Adjusting Depth
A depth adjustment knob is attached to the nose for setting the nail/staple depth.
To adjust the depth:
1. DISCONNECT NAILER /STAPLER FROM THE AIR SUPPLY!
2. Rotate the adjustment knob (Figure6) clockwise to drive the nails/staples deeper or counterclockwise to drive the
nails/staples shallower.
Figure 6. Rotating depth adjustment knob.
3. Connect nailer/stapler to the air supply and test the nail/staple depth, and repeat this entire procedure if
necessary until the nail/staple depth is satisfactory.
