and release the air pressure.
2. Disconnect the air supply hose.
3. Pull the nail pusher back as far as possible until
the catch clicks into place.

jammed nail does not release, proceed as
follows.
5. Remove the bolt indicated using the hexagonal

tool from the air supply and empty the nail magazine.
