Use an air hose as large and as short as possible to assure continuous, efficient nailing operation. With an air pressure of 0.49 MPa (70 PSIG), an air hose with an internal diameter of over 6.5 mm (1/4″) and a length of less than 20 m (6.6 ft.) is recommended when the interval between each nailing is 0.5 seconds. Air supply hoses shall have a minimum working pressure rating of 1.03 MPa (150 PSIG) or 150 percent of the maximum pressure produced in the system whichever is higher.

ENGLISH
Use an air hose as large and as short as possible to
assure continuous, efficient nailing operation.
With an air pressure of 0.49 MPa (70 PSIG), an air hose
with an internal diameter of over 6.5 mm (1/4″) and a
length of less than 20 m (6.6 ft.) is recommended when
the interval between each nailing is 0.5 seconds.
Air supply hoses shall have a minimum working pres-
sure rating of 1.03 MPa (150 PSIG) or 150 percent of
the maximum pressure produced in the system which-
ever is higher.
Lubrication
To insure maximum performance, install an air set (oiler,
regulator, air filter) as close as possible to the tool.
Adjust the oiler so that one drop of oil will be provided
for every 50 nails.
When an air set is not used, oil the tool with pneumatic
tool oil by placing 2 (two) or 3 (three) drops into the air
fitting. This should be done before and after use.
For proper lubrication, the tool must be fired a couple of
times after pneumatic tool oil is introduced.

Adjuster
To adjust the depth of nailing, turn the adjuster.
The depth of nailing is the deepest when the adjuster is
turned fully in the A direction shown in the figure. It will
become shallower as the adjuster is turned in the B direction.
If nails cannot be driven deep enough even when the
adjuster is turned fully in the A direction, increase the
air pressure.
If nails are driven too deep even when the adjuster is
turned fully in the B direction, decrease the air pressure.
Generally speaking, the tool service life will be longer
when the tool is used with lower air pressure and the
adjuster set to deeper depth of nail driving.
Hook
CAUTION:
Never hook the tool at high loca-
tion or on potentially unstable surface.
CAUTION:
Do not hang the hook from the
waist belt.
If the nailer accidentally drops, it may
result in misfiring and personal injuries.
