NOTE:
Maximum power for driving long nails is
achieved in sequential mode, so limit use of bump
mode when driving longer nails.
OPERATION
Instructions for Use
WARNING:
Always observe the safety
instructions and applicable regulations.
There may be local workplace
regulations applicable which interdict
the use of the bump action mode for
certain applications.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, turn tool
off and disconnect battery pack
before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or
accessories.
An accidental start-up can
cause injury.
Proper Hand Position (fi g. 7)
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury,
ALWAYS
use
proper hand position as shown.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury,
ALWAYS
hold
securely in anticipation of a sudden
reaction.
Proper hand position requires one hand on the
main handle (p) as shown.
Preparing the Tool (fi g. 1)
1. Remove the battery pack (l) from the tool and
ensure the tool is locked off.
2. Remove all nails from the magazine (g).
3. Check if the contact trip (c) can move freely.
4. Reload the nails to the magazine.
5. Insert battery pack.
WARNING:
Do not use the tool if the
contact trip or nail pusher cannot move
freely.
NOTICE: NEVER
spray or in any other
way apply lubricants or
cleaning solvents inside
the tool. This can
seriously affect the life and
performance of the tool.
Actuating the Tool (fi g. 1)
The tool can be operated using one of two modes:
sequential action mode or bump action mode.
SEQUENTIAL ACTION MODE
The sequential action mode is used for
intermittent nailing when very careful
and accurate placement is desired. It
also offers the maximum delivery of
power for driving the longest nails.
1. Using the mode selector switch (i), select the
sequential action mode (
).
2. Release the trigger safety lock-off (b).
3. Push the contact trip (c) against the work
surface.
4. Pull the trigger switch (a) to actuate the tool.
5. Release the trigger and raise the nailer from
the work surface.
6. Repeat steps 3–5 to actuate the next nail.
BUMP ACTION MODE (BF33 ONLY)
The bump action mode is used for rapid nailing on
flat, stationary surfaces and typically most effective
for application driving shorter nails.
1. Using the mode selector switch (i) to select
the bump action mode (
).
2. Release the trigger safety lock-off (b).
3. To drive a single nail, operate the tool as
described for sequential action:
a.
Push the contact trip (c) against the work
surface.
b.
Pull the trigger switch (a) to actuate the
tool. Each trigger pull with the contact trip
pushed against the work surface will drive
one nail.
4. To drive several nails, depress and hold the
trigger switch (a), and then push the contact
trip (c) repeatedly against the work surface.
WARNING:
Do not keep the trigger
depressed when the tool is not in
use. Keep the trigger safety lock-off
(b) in the locked position to prevent
accidental actuation when the tool is
not in use.
5. When changing between sequential and
bump modes, it may be necessary to adjust
the driving depth. Refer to
Adjusting the
Driving Depth
for instructions.
Using the Trigger Lock-off (fi g. 3)
Each Bostitch nailer is equipped with a trigger lock-
off (b) which when pushed to the right as shown
in Figure 3, prevents the tool from firing a nail by
locking the trigger and bypassing power to the
motor.
