OPERATION TO INSTALL / REMOVE BATTERY PACK See Figure 3, page 14. To install battery pack:  Place battery pack in the tool. Align raised rib inside tool with groove on battery pack.  Make sure the latches on each side of the battery pack snap into place and battery pack is secured in tool before beginning operation. NOTE: Squeeze LED light grip switch to reactivate nailer. To remove battery pack:  Locate latches on battery pack and depress to release battery pack from the tool. no-MAR PAD See Figure 4, page 14. The no-mar pad attached to the nose of the tool helps prevent marring and denting when working with softer woods. Remove the battery. Remove the pad by pulling it down and away from the nose. To replace the pad, fit it into place over the nose and push up to reseat. On-board storage for the pad is located on the magazine of the tool. An extra no-mar pad is provided in the on-board storage area. LOADING THE TOOL WITH Brad nails See Figures 5 - 6, page 14. WARNING: Keep the tool pointed away from yourself and others when loading nails. Failure to do so could result in possible serious personal injury.  Remove battery pack from the tool, if installed.  With the nose of the tool pointed away from you, squeeze magazine release button located at the rear of the magazine and slide the magazine cover open.  Place brad nails in the channel with nail tips pointing down and resting on bottom of the channel.  Push the magazine cover closed until it securely snaps into place.  Make sure that the magazine is securely locked in place.  Reinstall battery, and reactivate nailer by pressing the worklight grip switch. setting the AIR pressure See Figure 7, page 15. The amount of air pressure required will depend on the size of the nail and the workpiece material. Begin testing the depth of drive by driving a test nail into the same type of workpiece material used for the actual job.  Remove battery pack from the tool, if installed.  Turn air pressure dial clockwise to increase air pressure or counterclockwise for decreased pressure. It may be possible to achieve the desired depth with air pressure adjustments alone. If finer adjustments are needed, use the depth of drive adjustment on the tool. NOTE: Under some conditions, the unit may not deliver a nail when the air pressure dial is turned to the maximum pressure setting. The user may need to decrease the pressure setting for desired operation depth of drive ADJUSTMENT See Figure 8, page 15. The driving depth of the nail may be adjusted beyond air pressure. It is advisable to test the depth on a scrap workpiece to determine the required depth for the application. To determine depth of drive, first adjust the air pressure and drive a test nail. To achieve the desired depth, use the depth of drive adjustment on the tool. Harder materials and longer nails will require more force to drive the nail.  Remove battery pack from the tool, if installed.  Turn the depth of drive adjustment left or right to change the driving depth.  Reinstall battery and reactivate the tool by pressing the worklight grip switch.  Drive a test nail after each adjustment until the desired depth is set. NOTE: Set depth of drive at the shallowest depth that will meet your needs. Driving brad nails See Figures 9 - 10, page 15. WARNING: Never wedge or hold back the workpiece contact mechanism during operation of the tool. Doing so could result in possible serious injury. Single sequential actuation mode: Single sequential actuation provides the most accurate nail placement.  Remove battery pack from the tool.  Slide the selector to position ( ). 9 ­- English
