Safety General Operating Instructions 1. Before each use, test the tool as directed in ″Single Sequential Safety Trip Mechanism Testing Procedure″ on page 12. 2. If an automatic oiler is not used, add a few drops of pneumatic tool oil to the air line connection before use. Add a few drops more after each hour of continual use. 3. Attach the Nailer/Stapler to the air supply at the Air Inlet Plug. Start compressor and check the pressure, making sure it is set not to exceed Maximum Air Pressure indicated on the Specifications Chart. WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY: Keep second hand away from tool discharge area, especially if holding work piece. Tool applies extreme force to fastener, and fasteners may deflect or fire in an unexpected direction. CAUTION! TO PREVENT INJURY: Do not hold tool near body while firing. Tool recoil can cause injury. 4. To fire, place the nose of the Nailer/Stapler on the work piece. The Nailer/Stapler should not fire if the Safety Nosepiece is not depressed. Once depressed, gently and briefly squeeze the Trigger once. Do not fire repeatedly; nails or staples could bounce off of one another, damaging the work piece or causing personal injury. 5. To change the depth setting of the Nailer/ Stapler, turn the Depth Adjustment Knob to the desired setting. 6. If, at the maximum depth setting, the tool requires more force to accomplish the task, verify that the tool receives sufficient, unobstructed airflow (CFM) and increase the pressure (PSI) output of the regulator up to the maximum air pressure rating of this tool. CAUTION! TO PREVENT INJURY FROM TOOL FAILURE: Do not exceed the tool's maximum air pressure rating. If the tool still does not have sufficient force at maximum pressure and sufficient airflow, then a larger tool may be required. 7. After use, to prevent accidents: a. Release the Trigger. b. Detach the air supply. c. Attempt to fire the tool into a piece of scrap wood to ensure that it is disconnected and is incapable of firing any fasteners. d. Release the Trigger again. e. Clean external surfaces with clean, dry cloth. f. Store indoors out of the reach of children. Setup Operation Maintenance Page 14 For technical questions, please call 1-888-866-5797. Item 61694

General Operating Instructions
1.
Before each use, test the tool as directed in
Single Sequential Safety Trip Mechanism
Testing Procedure″ on page 12
.
2.
If an automatic oiler is not used, add
a few drops of pneumatic tool oil to the air
line connection before use.
Add a few drops
more after each hour of continual use.
3.
Attach the Nailer/Stapler to the air supply
at the Air Inlet Plug.
Start compressor
and check the pressure, making sure it is
set not to exceed Maximum Air Pressure
indicated on the Specifications Chart.
WARNING!
TO PREVENT
SERIOUS INJURY:
Keep second hand
away from tool discharge area,
especially if holding work piece.
Tool applies extreme force to fastener,
and fasteners may deflect or fire in
an unexpected direction.
CAUTION!
TO PREVENT INJURY:
Do not hold tool
near body while firing.
Tool recoil can cause injury.
4.
To fire, place the nose of the Nailer/Stapler on
the work piece.
The Nailer/Stapler should not
fire if the Safety Nosepiece is not depressed.
Once depressed, gently and briefly squeeze the
Trigger once.
Do not fire repeatedly; nails or
staples could bounce off of one another, damaging
the work piece or causing personal injury.
5.
To change the depth setting of the Nailer/
Stapler, turn the Depth Adjustment
Knob to the desired setting.
6.
If, at the maximum depth setting, the tool requires
more force to accomplish the task, verify that the tool
receives sufficient, unobstructed airflow (CFM) and
increase the pressure (PSI) output of the regulator
up to the maximum air pressure rating of this tool.
CAUTION!
TO PREVENT INJURY
FROM TOOL FAILURE:
Do not exceed the tool’s
maximum air pressure rating.
If the tool still does not have sufficient force
at maximum pressure and sufficient airflow,
then a larger tool may be required.
7.
After use, to prevent accidents:
a.
Release the Trigger.
b.
Detach the air supply.
c.
Attempt to fire the tool into a piece of scrap
wood to ensure that it is disconnected
and is incapable of firing any fasteners.
d.
Release the Trigger again.
e.
Clean external surfaces with clean, dry cloth.
f.
Store indoors out of the reach of children.
