Operating The
Stapler
(Continued)
2. An oiler can be
used to provide oil
circulation through
the tool. A filter
can be used to
remove liquid and
solid impurities which can rust or
“gum up” internal parts of the tool.
3. Always use air supply hoses with a
minimum working pressure rating
equal to or greater than the pres-
sure from the power source if a reg-
ulator fails, or 150 psi, whichever is
greater. Use 3/8” air hose for runs
up to 50’. Use 1/2” air hoses for 50’
run or longer. For better perfor-
mance, install a 3/8” quick plug
(1/4” NPT threads) with an inside
diameter of .315” (8mm) on the
tool and a 3/8” quick coupler on the
air hose.
4. Use a pressure regulator on the
compressor, with an operating pres-
sure of 0 - 125 psi. A pressure regu-
lator is required to control the oper-
ating pressure of the tool between
60 and 100 psi.
OPERATIONAL MODE
Always know the
operational mode
of the tool before using. Failure to
know the operational mode could
result in death or serious personal
injury.
SINGLE SEQUENTIAL MODE
This mode
requires the trig-
ger to be pulled
each time a fas-
tener is driven. The tool can be actuat-
ed by depressing the Work Contact
Element (WCE) against the work sur-
face followed by pulling the trigger.
!
WARNING
OPERATE
. Do not use the tool if it
operates while lifted from the work
surface. Personal injury may result.
7. Pull the trig-
ger and
depress the
work contact
element (WCE) against the work
surface. The tool
MUST NOT OPER-
ATE
.
8. Depress the
Work Contact
Element
(WCE) against
the work surface. Pull the trigger.
The tool
MUST OPERATE
.
An improperly
functioning tool
must not be used. Do not actuate the
tool unless the tool is placed firmly
against the work piece.
LOADING/UNLOADING THE TOOL
1. Always
connect
the tool to the air
supply
before
loading fasteners.
2. Push down
on the latch
button. Pull
back on the
magazine
cover.
3. Load a clip of fasteners with the
crowns straddling the magazine rail.
4. Push the maga-
zine cover for-
ward until latch
button pops
up.
5. Always unload all fasteners before
removing tool from service.
Unloading is the reverse of loading,
except always disconnect the air
supply before unloading.
!
WARNING
The trigger must be released to reset
the tool before another fastener can be
driven.
OPERATING A SEQUENTIAL TRIP
TOOL
Check the opera-
tion of the Work
Contact Element (WCE) trip mechanism
before each use. The WCE must move
freely without binding through its
entire travel distance. The WCE spring
must return the WCE to its fully extend-
ed position after being depressed. Do
not operate the tool if the WCE trip
mechanism is not operating properly.
Personal injury may occur.
1. Disconnect the
air supply from
the tool.
2. Remove all fas-
teners from the
magazine (see
Loading/
Unloading).
3. Make sure the trig-
ger and work con-
tact element (WCE)
move freely up and
down without stick-
ing or binding.
4. Reconnect air
supply to the
tool.
5. Depress the Work
Contact Element
(WCE) against the
work surface with-
out pulling the trig-
ger. The tool
MUST NOT OPERATE
.
Do not use the tool if it operates
without pulling the trigger.
Personal injury may result.
6. Remove the tool
from the work sur-
face. The Work
Contact Element
(WCE) must return
to its original down
position. The tool
MUST NOT
