Safety User-Maintenance Instructions Procedures not specifically explained in this manual must be performed only by a qualified technician. TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION, BEFORE ANY MAINTENANCE OR REPAIRS ARE DONE (including clearing jams): • Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles with side shields. Other people in the work area must also wear ANSI-approved impact safety goggles with side shields. • Release the trigger. • Detach the air supply. • Attempt to fire the Tool into a piece of scrap wood to ensure that it is disconnected and is incapable of firing any fasteners. • Empty the magazine and leave it open during service. The Magazine is spring‑loaded and may cause parts or a fastener to fly out of the Tool. TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM TOOL FAILURE: Do not use damaged equipment. If abnormal noise, vibration, or leaking air is detected, have the problem corrected before further use. TO PREVENT EXPLOSION: Lubricate only with specified lubricants. Lubricate the air inlet using only pneumatic tool oil. Lubricate the internal mechanism using only white lithium grease. Other lubricants may damage the mechanism and may be highly flammable, causing an explosion. Note: These procedures are in addition to the regular checks and maintenance explained as part of the regular operation of the air-operated tool. 1. BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the tool. Check for: • proper safety trip mechanism operation, • free safety nosepiece and trigger movement, • loose hardware or housing, • misalignment or binding of moving parts, • cracked or broken parts, and • any other condition that may affect its safe operation. 2. Daily - Air Supply Maintenance: Every day, perform maintenance on the air supply according to the component manufacturers' instructions. Maintain the lubricator's oil level. Drain the moisture filter regularly. Performing routine maintenance on the air supply will allow the tool to operate more safely and will also reduce wear on the tool.
