If pulling the trigger more when not driving nail at the temperature below 32°F (0°C), an wanted fastener will be driven. This Nailer is equipped with a FULL SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM. Explanation of FULL SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM nailing operation; First, press the push lever against the workpiece; next, pull the trigger to drive a nail. The machine employs a preventive mechanism for unloaded operation. The machine enters a state where the push lever cannot be pushed up. This takes place when the magazine is not loaded with nails or when the remaining number of nails becomes less than 8 or 9. CAUTION ⅷ Use caution not to throw the push lever tip onto wood when the push lever cannot be pushed up. METHODS OF OPERATION WARNING CAUTION ⅷ NEVER point tool at yourself or others in work area. ⅷ Keep fingers AWAY from trigger when not driving nails to avoid accidental firing. ⅷ Use outside or well- ventilated area. ⅷ Do not inhale its contents. ⅷ Do not use the electrical cord if damaged. Have it repaired immediately. ⅷ Never place your face, hands or feet closer than 8 inches (200 mm) from firing head when using. ⅷ Squeeze the trigger when drive a nail, otherwise the piston can not return correctly. ⅷ Make sure the nailing depth when the temperature is above 104°F (40°C) or below 32°F (0°C). This Nailer is equipped with the push lever and does not operate unless the push lever is depressed (upward position). It is intermittent operation (Trigger fire) only. 1 Position the nail outlet on the workpiece with finger off the trigger. 2 Depress the push lever firmly until it is completely depressed. 3 Pull and squeeze the trigger to drive a nail. 4 Remove finger from the trigger.
