4. Remove all fasteners from the canister.
5. Check for smooth and proper operation of contact trip. Do not
use tool if either assembly is not functioning properly. NEVER use
a tool that has the contact trip restrained in the up position.
6. Check air supply. Ensure that air pressure does not exceed
recommended operating limits, refer to
Tool Specifications
.
7. Connect air hose.
8. Check for audible leaks around valves and gaskets. Never use a
tool that leaks or has damaged parts.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury, disconnect tool
from air supply before performing maintenance, clearing a jammed
fastener, leaving work area, moving tool to another location or
handing the tool to another person.
Mode Selection
WARNING:
Always wear proper eye [ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA
Z94.3)] and hearing protection [ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)] when operating
this tool.
WARNING:
Keep fingers AWAY from trigger when not driving
fasteners to avoid accidental firing.
NEVER
carry tool with finger on
trigger. In contact mode tool will fire a fastener if safety is bumped
while trigger is depressed.
Sequential Trip:
Sequential trip requires the operator to hold the
contact tip against the work surface before pulling the trigger. This
makes accurate fastener placement easier. The sequential trip allows
exact fastener placement without the possibility of driving a second
fastener on recoil, as described under
Contact Trip
. The sequential
trip tool has a positive safety advantage because it will not accidentally
drive a second fastener if the tool is contacted against the work or
anything else while the operator is holding the trigger pulled.
Contract Trip:
The common operating procedure on contact trip
tools is for the operator to contact the work surface to actuate
the trip mechanism while keeping the trigger pulled, thus driving
a fastener each time the work is contacted. This will allow rapid
fastener placement on many jobs, such as sheathing, decking
and pallet assembly. All pneumatic tools are subject to recoil when
driving fasteners. The tool may bounce, releasing the trip, and if
unintentionally allowed to recontact the work surface with the trigger
still actuated (finger still holding the trigger pulled) an unwanted
second fastener will be driven.
TO CHANGE OPERATING MODES (FIG. 1, 4, 5)
WARNING:
Disconnect air line from tool and remove fasteners
from canister before making adjustments or personal injury may result.
WARNING:
Always know the tool operating mode before
connecting to an air supply and/or using the tool.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP-
1. Push and hold in pivot pin (F) opposite
the selector, while rotating the selector (G)
180° counterclockwise to the sequential
trip position
.
2. Ensure the selector is fully seated in the
new position.
To operate the nailer in sequential trip
mode:
1. Depress the contact trip firmly against the
work surface.
2. Depress the trigger.
